As most know I'm breastfeeding my daughter, Kaelyn. We're reaching the 9 month marker and I'm proud of it. I've done a lot of research on breastfeeding especially since I struggled with it in the beginning. I've become a mini-nazi with the whole "breast is best" attitude. I try not to have conversations about breastfeeding because I swear my eyes widen a 1/4 of an inch and I become a little dictator-ish. And rather than being informative I just sound like I've lost my mind. So, anytime I've read negative comments or ignorant view points (haha) about breastfeeding I immediately want to set that person straight. Many blogs have been started about this...but I refuse to let myself post them. But I'm sure, just like the Beyonce and Jay-Z fiasco, I will get over my obsession. I imagine I will always support breastfeeding, but probably not with the same psychotic-like attitude :)

A blog about what I'm NOT blogging about...
I've actually started several blogs recently, but decided against posting them. Let me begin by saying that I Google everything (as maybe most of you do as well). Sometimes I get really caught up in things and go on a googling frenzy. For instance, I was totally consumed by Beyonce and Jay-Z having their baby. Yes, I do follow some celebrity gossip, but I don't normally get too wrapped up in it. Well, I started reading these reports about whether Beyonce used a surrogate (based on my research, I vote No on this issue). Then I started reading about their extravagant hospital renovations (first it was half the maternity floor, than they said it was the whole floor... who knows). Then there were reports about the security being too tight for the "normal folk", and reports of people saying they didn't have a problem at all, then about the name Blue (as if their baby is the Blueprint for all other babies as Jay-Z has said HE is the blueprint for all rappers, ugh). Anyway, my afternoon (at work mind you) became about this family. It's stupid and I hate that I wasted my time reading about it. It was short lived and I'm totally over it.

And of course you got me sucked into the Beyonce & Jay-Z thing for a bit at work and I had to do my own research! haha So proud of you with breastfeeding you have done so well and I am glad you feel so strongly about it...BUT be sure to keep off my back about it in the future (I kid I kid hehe) Love ya!
ROFL about the Jay-Z/Beyonce thing...I am envisioning you feverishly searching internet sites about this.
Good job on the breast feeding!! I know it was a struggle but you persevered where others give up and you should be proud of that!
