breastfeeding

I'm 20w ftm and I really want to breast feed but I'm scared that it won't work out. Can any moms tell me about their first experience breast feeding. Was it weird? Did it hurt?

See a lactation consultant and have thier number handy some also do home/hospital visits. I had a few hiccups in the beginning but my son will be turning 2 soon and he's still nursing off and on, while being 37 weeks pregnant. If your determined now, keep that mentality and don't give up because it's so worth it in the end.

With my first baby it was so easy I wish i would have breastfeed longer. I'm definitely going to try to as long as I ccould. It's simply the best. Some say it hurts but it just depends

When my so was born he automatically latched on to my boob. Plus my nurse helped with the right ways to breastfeeding.
