PSA Reminder on BFing

SapphyrEyes

Since this is a topic that seems to come up frequently.  I thought I'd put this back out there because I didn't think of it when my DS was born.  And learning to get your baby latched on or dealing with other BFing fears/issues can be overwhelming.  Please, don't forget to take advantage of your local BFing resources such as La Leche League.  They are a very helpful group for however long you decide to BF and when you're having trouble with it they really are there to help you.  And you can search for a local support group near you on their site.  If there's not one nearby their online resources are valuable as well.  And also, one other spot to try is if there are any Cloth Diaper shops in your area you can also ask around them to see if they know of any support groups.

Just wanted to share this with everyone since it's such a frequent topic on here that seems to run the gamut of concerns/issues/ideas.

LLL is a GREAT organization.  I'd like to add to check your hospital's lactation consultant's credentials.  Not all are actually certified, but just a nurse who happens to "know more" than the other nurses or has had a little training.  The LC at my hospital told me the wrong things after I had DS, but she is no longer there.
