Breastfeeding help!

Ive decided that I would really like to help other mums with breastfeeding, because of all the trouble that I had with it. I really understand how heartbreaking it can be when its something you really want to do. Im looking into becoming a lactation doula/postpartum doula. Im not sure if this will work out or when, but its something Im really thinking about. I keep reading the bfing forum on WTE and there are so many women being screwed over at the hospitals. Theyre just not properly trained for bfing and mothers are paying the price for it because of their horrible advice.

When L is a little bigger I may try to make a website for help with bfing and of course suggest with all I am that people either see or contact Jack Newman.

L is doing really well. We had a family picnic over the weekend and he did really good with meeting some relatives for the first time. He let the cousins and aunties hold him and giggled and smiled for them. I was really proud of him because a week before he had a meltdown at a relatives house and I was feeling like a bad mother wondering if we hadnt been taking him out and around other people enough. I found this weekend that thats not true at all. hes a really sociable little guy when hes well rested.
