Every breastfeeding journey is different just like every mother’s relationship with her baby is different and we all face different struggles. Like many new moms I have had my share of challenges with breastfeeding and in the spirit of World Breastfeeding Week I wanted to share my story. My struggles were mostly due to a combination of overactive let down and delayed let down reflex – a pretty rare combo from what I discovered in my research. This is how I figured it out and what I did to turn our breastfeeding relationship around and nurse my first daughter for the first year of her life. There are links to a ton of resources as well for anyone who needs help with breastfeeding.
