I’ve been lucky—breastfeeding has come naturally with both my kids. I know that’s not everyone’s experience, and that’s why I talk about it openly, to help support other moms wherever they are in their journey.

So what makes it so special for me?

The Bond
There’s nothing like the connection—those sweet baby eyes, gentle touches, and knowing I can comfort them instantly.

It’s Free & Convenient
Formula is pricey. Breast milk? Always available, perfectly warm, and ready anytime, anywhere. No sterilizing, no prepping, no giant diaper bag.

Health Perks
It burns calories, helps your body recover after birth, and adapts to your baby’s needs—even giving them extra antibodies when they’re sick. Pretty amazing.

Even the Little Things
I’ll admit it—I finally have boobs! And nighttime feeds? I just lie in bed and nurse. It’s honestly the easiest way for me to survive the exhaustion.

Made Just for Them
From colostrum to mature milk, your body creates exactly what your baby needs—changing with time, health, and even time of day.

Breastfeeding isn’t always easy, but for me, it’s been a gift—and I’ll keep sharing in case it helps even one other mom feel less alone.
