Who am I?

Hi, and wel­come to the Beau­ti­ful Let­down breast­feed­ing blog. My name is Casey, and I am pas­sion­ate about breast­feed­ing. I can’t say for sure at what point in my life, that state­ment became true for me. When I was preg­nant with my first child, I knew that I would try to breast­feed, but I wasn’t sure how long I would want to breast­feed. Well, after over­com­ing a sleepy baby, flat nip­ples, using a nip­ple shield, and a baby who had no root­ing or swal­low­ing reflex, I was hooked. I knew by the time my son was 6 weeks old that my goal would be to breast­feed for a year. By the time he was 3 months old, my goal was to let him self-wean. Now, he’s 14 1/2 months old, and my baby isn’t a baby any­more but a tod­dler, we are still nurs­ing 4–5 times a day.
