Start with Teamwork for Breastfeeding Success
After teaching breastfeeding online this week, I noticed I was highlighting this concept frequently. Using the support around you (even though limited with Covid) is still essential to success. Partners, your extended family, your neighbors or community members, and professionals are all available to some degree to support you as you begin your journey with breastfeeding or chestfeeding. Don't try to tough it out. Even in this weird time, reach out for the help you need. Don't be shy; people want to help! Even if it is only bringing a meal and getting to see the baby through the window...support and connection makes the difference.
