(3/3) “Now that my son is almost three, I never know if I’m getting weird glances from people while breastfeeding because of how different we look, or because of how old he is. I’ve just gotten immune to all weird glances at this point. What’s nice is that Oregon has one of the best breastfeeding rates in the country, so I feel at ease publicly breastfeeding my kid here. I have found nursing to be so helpful in calming tantrums and handling emotions, and reconnecting and feeling more grounded at the end of a long day. The benefits now are different than they were in the earlier years.”
