À propos de cet audio

“I always just assumed that I would give birth and just breastfeed, and that would be it. It would be this natural, straightforward thing.”

“It's not just feeding them. If they hurt themselves, you can offer milk and that’s a comfort. It’s their safe place with Mum.”

Rachel shares her breastfeeding journey, reflecting on initial struggles with her first child. Despite her mother’s positive portrayal of breastfeeding, Rachel found it challenging, particularly as a single parent. She sought help from a lactation consultant but still struggled alone. With her second child, she felt more informed and experienced an easier transition. She highlights the importance of support networks and public breastfeeding-friendly spaces. She also shares Luca’s engagement with creative expression, showcasing how breastfeeding shaped their bond beyond infancy.
