Nursing Support
What did I hear about nursing while I was pregnant? “Nursing is natural but not instinctual.”
Well now how could that be!? I didn’t believe it. God designed the whole process. He made a mother’s milk the perfect nutrition for her baby. They’ve figured it out since the beginning of time. How hard could it really be?
Hard!
There should really be nursing support groups. And maybe there are. Anyone embarking on this journey now or in the near future – a word of warning: it’s true. Nursing is natural but not instinctual. There are challenges. There is pain. Apparently you get through it. I’m still at the beginning. I’ve come a long way but not out of the woods yet.
Anyone want to be a part of a support group to encourage each other as we go through our own nursing journeys? I’m open to it. And I think it’s important to have help during this time. I’m determined to give this gift to my child. Painful or not. Hard or not. He’s more than worth it!
