My daughter is my second child. I also breastfed my son. For
both of them, the first couple of weeks I had sore nipples, but we got past
that. With my son, I used a nursing cover when out in public. For my daughter, we tried the cover but
decided it was more of a hassle than I felt like dealing with.
She's currently two and still nursing. She usually only nurses when she first wakes
up, just before she goes to sleep, and sometimes when I get home from work. She will also ask some other times, especially
when she isn't feeling well. It's
sometimes a cuddle time and sometimes a time she seems to be trying to do
gymnastics! After going back to work, I pumped milk for
both of my children until they were over a year old, then they were switched to
cow milk. I did produce some extra milk and was able to donate that to the
Mother's Milk Bank of North Texas.
