I Am Back to Breastfeeding Again!

Heehee.. I have decided to return to breastfeeding again. I surfed the internet quite a fair bit on some breastfeeding forums and I thought I should give it another shot as my main reason for ceasing my supply wasn't because I didn't have enough breastmilk.I have also gathered a lot of support from friends (of course not to forget my younger sister who had breastfed her daughter for 18months) who breastfed/ are breastfeeding their kids and yes, I was convinced to return to total breastfeeding Gareth again. Oh my, I was so anxious about not having enough to feed Gareth at first yesterday because I had introduced formula milk for the past few days. I even got KengYong to help me buy Fenugreek. Well, I am glad that it gets a lot better today. Gareth seems more satisfied after each feed, and I truly felt that my efforts put in have been paid off so far.

One primary reason why I decided to fully breastfeed Gareth again is because he's going to attend infant care when I return to work. I really hope that his immunity could be strengthened via my breastmilk. Sigh.. but Gregory told me that he didn't want my milk - he said he still has his tin of milk powder..haha. Thanks to all my friends and relatives who have encouraged me to return to breastfeeding again. Well, at least now I could tell myself that I have done all that I could to give the best to both my boys..
