Breastfeeding

Bf can be quite an exasperating experience. There are good days, and low days. I have only been able to exclusively bf my son for one month; after that...and even after reading so much about perseverance to bf..we started to supplement him on Mamex Gold. Of course i still continue pumping and bf. It was mixed feelings at first, i most sympathize him cos we all know bf milk is still no.1. but at the the same time i feel a sense of relief, at least my baby boy will go to sleep feeling 'kenyang' and wont wake up every half an hour for some ne-nen.
But overall, i think it's a mother's choice as to what she wants to feed her child.
I hope to bf Luqman for as long as i can, to provide him with the nutritions breastmilk can provide..and also because it creates a great bond between me and him.
When i put him close to me, to my breast and he sucks well, i feel that i am his sense of relief, sense of belonging, completeness. Like i am the answer to all his troubles, the cure to all his miseries; it's a world created with just the 2 of us in it, clutching each other tight in our arms. And there is no feeling in this world better than that.

Mommy loves you baby!
