It’s Week 7 of the Breastfeeding Blog Hop
Topic: Sweet Support
My last blog hop post touches on the support I had with my first baby (here in case you want to read it). I was lovingly pushed into breastfeeding by the women I worked with and it was the best thing that came out of that job. I miss those women and their friendships more then I ever would have expected... but I digress... I do think that is why I am such a big supporter now and want to share some of my stories about nursing and pumping. I am and was blessed to work for not one but two companies that gave me the time and space to pump for my children and a wonderful husband who encourages me everyday. I know how hard it was for him, especially in the beginning, when he wanted to feed our son and then later when our daughter wanted only to nurse, shunning the bottle.
Lucky does not being to describe how I feel about breastfeeding. There are so many stories out there of the women who have had problems that I want to share mine - to let soon to be moms know that there is hope... not everyone has horrible experiences to over come but some of us are able to nurse with minimal problems. Even the moms who where not as lucky as I am still were able to nurse and overcome there obstacles with support. We live in a great time to be able to Google help and find it, lactation consultants, midwives and nurses who care and more hospitals are turning to a baby friendly atmosphere. Support can often be found in the unlikeliest of places and if you still can't find it then email me :)
