‘LACK OF LACTATION IS NORMAL WITH YOUR FIRSTBORN. I HAD NEXT TO NOTHING AND FELT LIKE I HAD FAILED SOMEHOW. I WISH SOMEONE HAD EXPLAINED TO ME ABOUT EPIDURALS, EXPLAINED TO ME WHAT THEY ARE, HOW YOU’LL FEEL, THE GOOD AND THE BAD. I FELT UNDER INFORMED BECAUSE I WAS FLOODED WITH OPINIONS.’

- WENDY L

‘IF BREASTFEEDING IS AN OPTION, THEN GET A LACTATION CONSULTANT. I HAD THREE BABIES AND I MADE SURE TO VISIT THEM WITH EACH BABY BECAUSE I DID NOT REALIZE HOW HARD IT COULD GET. AND NO ONE AROUND ME HELPED AT ALL. IT’S AMAZING HOW SO MANY WELL INTENTIONED PEOPLE CAN BE SO UNHELPFUL. BUT REALLY, FIND ONE BEFORE YOU DELIVER SO YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO SEARCHING IN DESPERATION. EVEN WITH MY THIRD IT WAS JUST SO NICE TO HAVE THAT WARM VOICE GUIDING ME JUST SO I HAD THAT LITTLE BIT OF CONFIDENCE THAT I WAS DOING IT RIGHT.’

‘TREAT YOUR POST-PREGNANCY RECOVERY LIKE ANY OTHER TRAUMA - WE COULD USE A POSTPARTUM PHYSICAL THERAPIST/HEALER.’
