BF'ing pictures

[lizamann]

Inspired by the nice thread about bf'ing, I would like to ask if any of you have any pictures of your little one eating? I snapped some myself a few months ago and I LOVE them. The little expressions on her face - I just wanted to capture that. I think it's time for another round of pics, taken by someone else, so that more than just my boob is in the picture!

Ooh, should I be so bold as to post one! What the heck...

[bluej]

That is very sweet! I haven't done it, but I have seen pics taken professionally of the mom nursing the baby.

Very cute. I haven't done it. I doubt DH would be for it either. He's so funny about me nursing where anyone can see. Personally I don't care, but he always makes sure every speck of boob is covered up! LOL!

I don't have any pictures of the first two kids nursing (when they were babies, I mean!) which kind of saddens me. I didn't have a digital camera back then so that was one factor. Now I do, and I keep saying I'll have DH take a "conservative" picture of Stefan nursing, but I haven't gotten around to it. Well he doesn't show any signs of wanting to stop so we still have some time to do it.

DH took some the other day before we were getting ready to do a photo shoot of DS. I wasn't the exposed boob that bothered me, it's that I was still in my "clening the house" clothes and he wouldn't listen when I said I'd rather he not take them while I was dressed like that! But one picturre came out ok.

Your picture is great, she looks so sweet!

What a great idea! I can't believe I never thought of it. I absolutely LOVE looking down into DS' eyes while he is nursing. The look on his face is so priceless. How did you get the camera in there to get a pic without unlatching? Of course, Carter is older now and anything that can distracte him will, so the second I break out the camera, he will come off and start laughing. Maybe DH can do it!

That is such a neat angle--she'll be able to see how you watched her adoringly!

I used a digital and kind of held it out blindly like you see people doing in crowds at a parade or concert or something. I was able to look at the screen immediately and compensate by trial and error to get the right angle.

Our first ones were taken when DH was tiny. I just couldn't get over the beauty of it-this sweet little boy. And then they expanded -theres the one during the time period when he started holding my boob with both hands as if it were a giant cheeseburger-that's one of my favorites.

Here's a link to some absolutely amazing photographs. I wish they were pictures of me! LOL! The only photos I have are sitting in a chair. Nothing fancy. You can't even really tell the babies are nursing. :)

those pictures are gorgeous.....i'm inspired to try taking my own and maybe even having professional ones done :)

What a cool thread - I wasn't bold enough to post this photo of DS feeding in his bear costume on my own on Halloween when it was taken, but it fits nicely here :) Grrr!

Those are breathtaking portraits. I love them all but the first picture and the one of the bride nursing melt my heart. I feel sad that I don't have more pictures of Lola nursing, especially now that she's weaned. Having seen these, I'm even more resolved to make sure I have pictures like this to share with my children once they're grown. So beautiful!

I love them all!! Especially Abigail & the CAT! LOL!! I really want to have DH take a few now that Karenna is older. I'd like some (if possible) to be taken from my perspective -- so I won't forget!

Here's the only two I have -- one from the first week (and her response to the intrusion), and one where she's looking up to see what her "Papa-razzi" is up to with the camera at 4 months!

We have some pictures of Noah BF from the first few weeks. I'd like some more recent pictures now that he is more alert and expressive.
