Better for baby
- I knew I'd breastfeed when I was sitting in my childbirth class and listening to the benefits. When I heard that it could help prevent ear infections I knew I had to try. I'd been plagued with ear infections as a child so anything I could do to prevent that was awesome. My daughter hasn't had a single one!

I don't know why I started...
- but it just seemed like the thing to do. I kept going because once I was past the first few weeks, it was much easier than I had thought it would be. I'll breastfeed this baby too.
