Common Sense Breastfeeding
A nurse from Mississippi sent me an email today that captured the essence of my teaching so well that I want to share it.
She said,“You have given me so much to think about regarding breastfeeding – you make it sound like “common sense!”
She went on to tell me what she understood after taking a class with me:
“Examples:
When we get hungry, we eat
When we get thirsty, we drink
Sometimes we eat a little & sometimes we eat a lot
Sometimes we take a few sips & sometimes we drink a lot
Standing to breast feed
How really important the first 2 weeks are for mom & baby.”
All humans eat and drink in the same way, responding to their feelings and needs. YAY!
