This is the most complete "timeline" of how breastfeeding goes that I have read. I wish I had read this before my first baby!

    I breastfed until almost 20 months with DS, through the beginning and middle of this pregnancy.  This timeline is extremely on target!  Thanks for sharing!

    I'm having a hard time taking it seriously, because she's misspelled so many words.  "Immunisation"?  Really?  Ugh.  I'm a snob, I can't help it.  Other than that, it's very informative.

    I think she must be from the UK. I think they spell some stuff differently. Just my guess though.

    Thank you for posting. I think this will be very beneficial for me in the first few weeks.

    Yes, from the UK.  Or at least studied there.  I loved the article.  Very cool stuff here.

     thats correct in British English. 

    I love the word "nappies". And great article, I'll need a refresher course so I'm bookmarking it.

    I liked that she referred to pacifiers as dummies.

     Well, technically, British English is actually correct and our English is wrong seeing as it originated there :)

    Yeah...if as an American you're critical of the King's English, I'm pretty sure that reached beyond snobbery and into some kind of denial. American English is so backward...

    I forwarded this to my husband who has his sweet head in the clouds. I read it but I'm going to make him read this to me in his British voice which he thinks is sooooo funny.

    I wish it offered more insight as to what to do when you return to work. I'll be returning to work at 6 weeks this time, making breastfeeding more difficult, especially since there isn't a place to pump at my work... I was off an entire year with my first because I was laid off when I was 6 months pregnant, so this will be a new challenge for me returning to work so early.
