I (Alyssa) have had a guilty conscience for a long time.  On this podcast, in my private practice, in my book, and when I speak at conferences, I share breastfeeding guidance that I myself did not take when nursing my babies.  It's not that I am a hypocrite - it is that I just don't want other parents to go through the same struggles that I did.   So why am I sharing this with you?  I want you to know that, just like you, I did not do everything perfectly.  I also want you to know that despite my many mistakes, breastfeeding still turned out well for me in the long run - and it can for you too.    See more information on our show notes at: www.SweetPeaBreastfeeding.com/podcast.
