As a #NurseScientist, I thought it would be fun to track how much time I spent #BreastFeeding my kiddo.
This data helped me:
1. Celebrate the time (yesterday was our last day BFing), and
2. Support other parents and caregivers with data to #MakeCareWorkVisible

THE NUMBERS...
Over 13 months, I breast fed 1862 times for over 400 hours. That is equivalent to more than TEN full time work weeks!!! 😱😱😱

For reference, this data is a little skewed since the amount of time drops off quite a bit once the kiddo starts eating solids.
In the month before he started solids, I nursed him 360 times for nearly 40 hours in 30 days.
