[quote=Anonymous]Didn't read any of the prior posts but I breastfed both my kids for over a year and it was worth it to me. Pros: - Once you get the hang of it, way easier than bottles. You just put them on you and sit there (or lie there). No bottles to wash. Don't need to buy formula. - Easy way to put them asleep or put them back to sleep if they wake up too early. Easy way to comfort them. - Weight loss and better skin (for me at least). I could eat a ton and not worry about gaining weight. - Emotional connection. I loved loved loved the feeling of bonding with them. Cons: - Rough in the beginning when it hurts. I got blisters and almost quit with first child. - Makes it hard to get away from them. Can't really travel without them unless you want to pump every few hours. - Mine didn't like bottles which made the above even harder. - Getting engorged and needing to pump or breastfeed at inconvenient times[/quote]
