“Life’s not about waiting for the storm to pass…it’s about learning to dance in the rain.” ~Vivian Greene
How could something as simple as feeding your newborn cause such worry, stress and confusion? Prior to even holding your little one in your arms, feeding is a topic that the mere mention of stimulates anxiety. A blizzard of other’s opinions, absolutes, internet ideals, and fears can impede you from thinking clearly, or making confident “right for you” choices.
Feeding your newborn is a learning experience and each baby is different. You aren’t going to know how to feed your little one until they are here. Outside influence from uneducated sources certainly isn't going to help you on your journey… Others may say they know what's best for the baby... But they don’t know what is best for you and your baby.
