You’ve heard that it takes a village to raise a child …we certainly have come to believe that it also takes a village to breastfeed a child!
In the past (and still in some countries and cultures of the world) a woman would always have her mother, friends, sisters, and other female relatives to help her when it came to the sometimes surprisingly difficult task of breastfeeding her baby.
In many of our lives today, we just don’t have that support network in place — and we may not be aware of how to create it.
We, Krista and Kelly, are here today as part of your village. We want to connect with you and share our stories, in hopes that they may be of help to you and other moms in this rewarding, though at times seemingly impossible, journey.
Our stories are amazingly similar — though they ended quite differently. May they encourage and help you along your path, wherever you may be.
