Badass Breastfeeding Podcast Dianne Cassidy & Abby Theuring

Your episode today (When you don’t love breastfeeding) was exactly what I needed to hear today! My son is 4 months old and the past few weeks I’ve been wondering why don’t I love this? All I have ever heard from other moms is how it’s such a great bonding experience and the great oxytocin high they get and I’m over here like yeah nope never felt that! I honestly don’t understand the hype at all, I do it because I know it’s the best thing for him and hey it’s saves money but other than that I’ve never looked forward to it, never once felt the urge to take a picture of myself nursing, and even though we haven’t had any real issues I can not wait to feel like I have my body to myself again. Listening to your episode today confirmed my hunch that I am not alone! While I am so happy for moms who have this warm/fuzzy/mushy-gushy/lovey-dovey experience with breastfeeding, it was so nice to hear that I am not the only one who is just like “eh it’s fine.” I appreciate your podcast so much for bringing light to the parts of breastfeeding that not everyone likes to talk about! I hope there are some expectant moms who will listen to it and know that they aren’t crazy if they don’t fall in love with breastfeeding! Keep up the good work!

I wish I had found this with my son because I gave up after 3 months. I felt like a complete failure and I am glad I found this podcast for this baby. Our goal is to make it to at least 6 months maybe a year and I know with Diane and Abby that can be possible. Thank you for all the information!!

Yes! Yes! So much yes!! My 5 month old needs me why is that a bad thing? I won’t stop nursing to sleep and I won’t apologize for it either!
Also I tell every nursing mom I know about this pod cast! It validates the struggles, small successes, and forms a beautiful community of nursing mommas! Thank you thank you!!
