A Thousand Tiny Steps

Choosing to Breastfeed with Kelsey


Listen Later

Kelsey is the amazing woman who supplied me donor milk when Jack was young. This concept didn’t exist when I was younger and I’m so glad this option does now. It’s a great opportunity to connect with other moms, get advice, and have support to breastfeed and not use formula if that’s what you choose. 

 

Key Takeaways:

[1:47] Nursing all my kids to older ages and using donor milk 

[11:55] I nurse in public and criticism I’ve received 

[15:11] Using donor milk and great groups that support breastfeeding 

[20:31] Just nursing one child now and the feelings that come with it 

[23:06] My favorite memory nursing and having painful mastitis 

[28:58] Funniest memory nursing and a memory Barb’s track team never forgot 

[32:06] Advocate for yourself and find a IBCLC Consultant
