I have breastfed 3 babies, and every time it is different and wonderful and challenging all at once. I’ve written about how it takes time to learn, and how sometimes you will have vunerable moments!
I also want to remind you about how to write your own affirmations, so that you can benefit from even more of them!
Today my guest Katie is visiting the blog to share her message of encouragement with you as well. Enjoy!
Breastfeeding is full of ups and downs. As a lactation consultant, what often makes the difference for moms during the more difficult periods is attitude.
Will a positive attitude fix all your breastfeeding problems? Of course not. But it can absolutely make difficult situations a little more bearable.
Here are 25+ breastfeeding affirmations to empower and support you through your breastfeeding journey:
