I would say it feels like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders, but I would just like to clarify that I am not an expert on breastfeeding, and I am sure it will feel different for everyone.
I am sure there are many opinions on this one, but for me it feels like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders, because I am now able to feed myself.
For me, it’s more like a HUGE weight has been lifted off of my shoulders because I can now feed myself. Breastfeeding is a very delicate process, and with every feeding I’m learning something new. It’s like, every time I feed, I’m learning something new. It reminds me of the time when I first started nursing. I was a teenager, and I was so scared of what I’d do if I missed a feeding.
Breastfeeding is so much harder than I thought it was going to be. At the beginning of every feeding, I would immediately think, “How do I get this thing over the top of my nipple?” because I thought I was going to bleed all over the place. I’ll give you just one example of the first time I missed a feeding: I was pregnant with my son, and I was having a hard time breastfeeding.
At the time, I was pregnant with my son, I had a lot of fears about how I was going to breastfeed. I thought I was going to feel an incredibly intense sensation, I thought I was going to feel it all over, and I had no idea what I was doing. When I started to breastfeed, I immediately thought that I was doing a really good job, and that I was getting a lot of milk.
It’s really weird because I never had that experience myself. Not once did I feel the need to feed my newborn; in fact, most of the time I would be in the shower or on the bed. Breastfeeding is like a natural reflex response. We feel it before we even think about it and it’s hard to get out of your mind. It’s like a Pavlovian response.
The only time I ever felt the need to feed my child was when I was actually breastfeeding. Maybe once a week (when I was about 12 months). And that was because I was in the middle of a very very stressful situation. I don’t know if this is something you can say about anyone else in your family, but it is very rare that you would need to feed your newborn in the middle of a stressful situation.
I guess I was lucky enough to have it happen to me a couple of times. To my recollection, that was when I was about 5 months old and my mother and my grandmother had just returned from a funeral.
I think it’s because breastfeeding is so unique to a lot of mothers that it’s hard to imagine what it would be like to have to feed their child. It’s the same reason you could never imagine what it would be like to breastfeed your child, or to have to hold your newborn in your arms, or to be in a room with a baby who has no idea what’s going on and you can’t just talk to her.
