This is a difficult job for me. I need to change my attitude toward parenting and make my automatic responses much less negative. I know I pick on my 2 year old’s behavior more than she deserves, but she is a healthy, happy child and mostly I feel I am a good mother. I need to learn to relax about the little things and save the big reactions for the big things.

My daughter and I have had a great breastfeeding relationship. She is 27 months at this writing. Full of quirks at times, and we were almost taken out by thrush at 14 months, but we rebounded. I’ve nursed most of the way through my second pregnancy and wouldn’t change a thing. (though I may not have said so in the first trimester!!)
