I breastfed my babies for different amounts of times and then moved on to bottles.  The transition was hard for them, that is, for the girls.

I breastfed my kids.  I didn’t know if I would like it or if it would work but I had decided to give it a try.  I was shocked, if not very surprised, when my firstborn naturally knew where to look for food only minutes after his birth – his pure instinct was incredible. What I didn’t know is that it’s not just as easy as 1-2-3. Magical yes, easy – not always. My firstborn was a huge eater. In fact, he ate, what felt like, all the...
