Overcoming Feelings of Grief if You Aren't Able to Breastfeed or Chestfeed (w/Amy Brown)
We are talking about grief and trauma when breastfeeding or chestfeeding just doesn’t work out the way we thought it would.
My guest is Professor Amy Brown, author of The Positive Breastfeeding Book and Why Breastfeeding Grief and Trauma Matter. She joins me to discuss grief, trauma, why it happens, and what we can do to prevent it or heal from it.
