We have officially made it to our goal, 6 months of BFing. It was a difficult journey, I thought it was over so many times, but somehow we made it! In celebration, I took my first and only breastfeeding pic. I share it now with all of you (no it will never reach social media sites for personal reasons). Think what you will, but I feel it is the most beautiful picture I have ever posted on the web.

There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children.
This is a public forum (accessible to anyone on the internet), so keep in mind that your pic is less private here than in many other social media settings.
I am aware, I think there should be more BF pics on the net but for personal reasons (coworkers and the like) I would not share amongst social media. Also, I edited out my nipple hoping that will count for something.

We will be 6 months on Tuesday! Was not sure that I'd make it this far going back to work. Gonna see how long we can go. Let's here it for us BFing mommies!!

Please don't interpret my comment as saying that I have a problem with BFing pics. I'm all for BFing pics! I was responding to your sentiment about wanting privacy.
No, I totally understand. It is the way I worded it, I could care less about people seeing me BFing my child, in public or on the net but for some reason it would creep me out if my H's friends or my co-workers saw that, and then of course there is always the possibility of being judged for posting it by friends and acquaintances. I know many of the ladies here on TB are like minded mommies.

I am excited we made it to! Congratulations! I never thought I would make it this long but I feel like it wasn't near as hard or awkward as I thought it would be. I have no reason to quit right now so we will see how much longer I last.
Re: We have made it to our goal (BFing, Pic warning)
My mom posted breastfeeding pics of me on Facebook. Thanks mom for flashing my nipple to all my friends!
