Thanks for making this forum. for me breastfeeding was a challange since his birth, as he did not latched for straight 2.5 months in the begining. I tried my best to feed him but he did not latched even for once and i have to pump the milk and then feed him. this process not only affected my milk supply but also i have to face a lot of comments from the people around me like i don't want to feed him. it was very tough time both mentally and physically. but right after 2.5 months a miracle happened , he suddenly started latching. but in the 7th month he completely stopped breastfeeding. so it was a challenging journey for me.

biggest challenge was taking her on lap and feeding. i was not able to comrfotably sit or take her on lap in comforatble position . i used pillow so she will be comfortable and it would be easy to feed.

My breastfeeding journey is like an emotional rollercoaster. I was filled with joy when my princess was latching properly in her first attempt. Later it was very painful due to mastitis. I was able to overcome those painful days only with my thought that I have to BREASTFEED my baby. Nothing matters on seeing my baby doll sleeping with a happy face while breastfeeding.... Each one's journey is unique in their own way.Happy breastfeeding...

The biggest surprise, which is also the best, is that I didn’t know I would love motherhood as much as I do.” –

Breastfeeding has been challenging for me since the beginning. After an emergency c section my baby girl was in ICU for a week. After that we had our struggles with no milk to expressing a little milk and then latching ... My husband set up an ecosystem for us to help ease the feeding process. First we used Philips hand pump and then switched to Avent electric pump which was a game changer and gave me a lot of comfort and time for myself.
Then came the Avent sterilizer and anti colic bottles ...
finally we have a system in place and enjoy our breastfeeding time along with express bottle feeding :)
