Hey, did you know that it’s World Breastfeeding Week?
I’ve been breastfeeding my triplets for 10 1/2 months now, and I love it. It makes me feel … well, I feel like my body isn’t betraying me. And I love that my babies are bonded to me, even Abby who doesn’t breastfeed, but gets my milk. She shows a definite preference for my milk over formula.
I never thought it would be possible to do this. I thought I’d pump for them while they were in the NICU and I thought maybe I’d struggle through a couple weeks at home, but I never really thought I’d make it through a whole year. And now I find myself wondering if I’ll be ready to give this up when they turn a year old next month.
I have these three babies – these three that started out teeny, tiny, helpless babies, that have grown from as tiny as 2 1/2 pounds (Abby) and are now as big as 20 pounds (Sam) and I helped do that!
So, um, go me!

Way to go on the nursing! Enjoy the time with your (not so) little ones… sigh….

Fantastic! So not only do you probably have the record for breast infections š you surely have the record for bf triplets. And a working momma no less! Well done and Congrats!
I’m certainly impressed! I’ve been studying up on breastfeeding in anticipation of my baby’s arrival and honestly I’m find it all intimidating. And that’s with just one baby and not three. Wow!
That is awesome!!! You should be so proud…I know you are!!!! Yeah you!!!!! Way to go!!!!!
Go you, indeed!!
go you! i feel the same way…although it is only once a day now, i think it is incredible to me that i am still able to nurse my 3!
I’m totally impressed. I breastfed my first for 6 months, but only made it to 10 weeks with the triplets. Very, very impressed.
YAY you and your boobs!!!
Good going girl! I am also still breastfeeding and wondering about giving up at a year. I am starting to hate the freeking pump though.
Go You! You have every right to be proud of your BF abilities. I know it hasn’t been easy all the time so kudos to you for sticking with it and giving your babies the best possible milk!
Go you and your productive rack!!! It’s definitely been tough going for you at time, but man, that’s impressive!
YEAH! GO YOU!
I gave your URL to a woman I met over e-mail who’s expecting triplets and she loved your blog. She wrote and said, ‘she’s super Momma’ and I said, YES, she is BF’ing all 3 of her little darlings and she rocks!!!
