Is it normal to enjoy breastfeeding?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, it’s normal to enjoy breastfeeding. Some people find it comforting, satisfying, or bonding, while others find it tiring or simply neutral.

If you mean enjoying nursing your baby, that can come from the closeness, the sense of soothing your baby, or the physical feeling of feeding. People’s experiences vary a lot, and there’s no “right” way to feel about it.

If you mean that it feels physically pleasurable, bodies can respond to touch and hormones in ways you don’t choose. That doesn’t automatically say anything about your intentions. What matters is keeping the experience focused on caring for your baby and respecting your own comfort.
