This week has been emotional, I breastfed my daughter for the last time.
After many long days debating the pros and cons of stopping, it was clear what I had to do.
I feel very sad, almost heartbroken about stopping but my body has had enough and needs to be on the pill.
Each month my periods get worse and I know deep down my endometriosis is coming back.
The familiar pains with some added symptoms, my acne has been a sticking point too. Getting to the point I can't face seeing people.
And finally my PMT, if my family can have a slightly saner me then I think that stopping and going on the pill is the way forward.
To my precious daughter, we had 17 months of breastfeeding bliss. I have loved looking into your beautiful eyes whilst you lay against me. But being a happy, healthy mummy is probably what you need more than one feed before bedtime.
