Today I will be discussing some pros and cons of breastfeeding, because lately I've been going through some things.
Pros: helps uterus shrink thus making you lose weight at a rapid pace.
*While breastfeeding my daughter I lost 27 lbs in just 9 days.*
Studies have suggested that it reduces a woman's chances of developing breast cancer.
Most of all it increases the bonding between mother and child.
Cons: cracked nipples... ahhh, the most painful thing in such a sensitive area.
Right after giving birth there will be uterine contractions that feel like your insiders will fall out. Sorry if tmi...
Once your little bean gets teeth you'll get bitten on a regular. Remember you're a 24 hour Buffett for your little one. Lol
Now my reason why for this post is not to scare you away from breastfeeding but it is too make the new breastfeeding mom aware that it's not going to be baby rainbows and unicorns. I'm currently expecting my third child and have a 6 year old daughter that I breastfed for 2 and a half years and I'm currently breastfeeding my 10 month old son. So i have much experience.
Good luck to breastfeeding moms and congratulations may your journey be better than mine.
