Breastfeeding Questions
I had so many breastfeeding questions when I was breastfeeding my baby. The need for support and information is massive.
I
was really fortunate to have the most amazing support and education and
I believe this is what helped me enjoy breastfeeding my son and
breastfeed him until he was 19 months.
The hospital where I gave birth to my son in New Zealand offered a 4 session workshop to pregnant women which I attended. It was run by a lactation consultant and each session taught us all we needed to know about breastfeeding.
The last session we were encouraged to bring our main support people from our family along. I was able to take my husband and mother so they were also able to receive the information I had and ask their breastfeeding quesitons. One of the main points that was made was that many woman give up
breastfeeding because they don't have the support they need. I have to say that the one thing this course left me with was that breastfeeding is a skill that needs to be mastered.

page will help you find the support you are looking for as well as the answers to some of your breastfeeding questions.

Fresh Milk: The Secret Life of Breasts
by Fiona Giles
