My little rascal is 18 months now, and I "STILL" breastfeed him. Anyone who has breastfed past one understand, the "still".
However that's neither here or there. This is about our favorite boo-boo spot. THE TUB....
The gaze of L-O-V-E
Once my baby's umbilical cord fall off, the are in the tub with me, every night. With my last 2 children I chose to breastfeed. Having multiple children, I learned to never let a moment of time go to waste if I could be multitasking. So I began nursing in the tub.
At first it was out of pure convenience and time constraints. However, I began to fall in love with the moment.
I enjoy how relaxed my baby gets in the warm water. Their eyes gaze at me while drifting in and out of sleep. The skin to skin contact settling them even more. The moment of one on one time without any interruptions. Memories that will be embedded in my heart forever.
The home run of it all is when I finally get them out the tub they would go to sleep effortlessly...until they turned into maniac toddlers.
Anyone who have not tried nursing while bathing, I suggest you give it whirl!
