I breastfed for almost 11 years combined...was nursing a little when I did biathlons, half marathons and 2 marathons. For more help with breastfeeding, I recommend you seek advice and support from your local La Leche League group. It's a sad commentary that, in my experience, many breastfeeding relationships end with bad advice from hospital staff and Dr.s who aren't interested in advocating that aspect of mothering.

Hey, there aren't too many of us with that much breastfeeding history! I breastfed for 7 straight years (my two youngest each nursed until they were nearly 4, and are 3 years apart), plus my oldest nursed for almost 3 years many years ago, now.
aw yes. I like to tell women they will survive the years of breastfeeding babies to 4yo+ and throw in a couple rounds of tandem nursing 2 at a time. Not too many of us weirdos out there . I actually miss those years.
You guys should move here...or rather should have been here when you were nursing. We are such a nursing state, especially where I live. One of my friends was tandem nursing her 3 year old son and twin girls. It is always weird to me to be someplace else where nursing is not taken as a given.
What about bras? The nursing one don't seem to be very supportive. I'm a C cup (this is pre-pregnancy of course - don;t know where I'll be in three months.)
