Breastfeeding is the process of a woman feeding an infant or young child with milk from her breasts, usually directly from the nipples.

Going very well, but I am a 3 year breast cancer survivor so can only feed on one side and am concerned about what will happen when I go back to work.

While personaly i dont breast feed *lol* just not equpped to do that.. But a lactacion specialst will help, the trick is to get them latched on right. But we use both, formula and breast milk, if he wont latch on and you are worried about ganing weight, try pumping, My wife dose both , breast feeds and pumps, usualy we mix 1/2 breast milk and 1 scoop of formula then fill with warm water and mix. He seems to like it

I nurse "on demand" for at least 1st year. This is my child's primary source of food the whole year. I believe it is the best thing I can do for my child.

Feeding on the breast didn't work so well, so now I'm just pumping and bottle feeding.

Breastfeeding is going great! She is a gentle nurser and though we had a rough start, she's become a pro as have I- to a certain degree :)

My little man latched on right away. He is a great eater. I had to go back to work when he was 8 weeks, so i am pumping every two hours at work and breastfeeding when i am with him! Rough but getting used to it!
