My best Thanksgiving wishes go out to all of you!
There's nothing like helping other mothers with breastfeeding problems to make you grateful for what went right when you were nursing. I really do have a lot to be thankful for when it comes to my breastfeeding experience.
I'll share my top five:
- A baby who latched well from the start
- Breasts that produced a good supply (who knew?)
- Supportive family and friends, especially my husband
- An employer who never gave me grief about pumping
- A doula who drilled into me to "get help early" if a problem arose (the best advice I know)
I'm really grateful to have had the opportunity to work with breastfeeding mothers at such a special and challenging time of life. I'm also very thankful to have the chance to write about breastfeeding and "meet" so many of you in the course of writing this blog. Thank you, Motherwear!
How about you? What do you have to be thankful for? Please tell us in the comments section!
