    About this ebook

    A must read for mothers with breastfeeding problems, this book will encourage you and help you to hang in there when the going gets tough.

    This personal account of breastfeeding success will cheer you on when the going gets tough.

    Messaged from the author.

    I had a very hard time breastfeeding both my children. It was very disheartening. I thought that breastfeeding was supposed to be the most natural thing in the world and it would be second nature to me but it didn’t turn out that way.

    The only thing that kept me strong and my spirits high enough to persevere was reading stories of other mothers who had difficulties breastfeeding.

    This is the reason why I have written this book. It is my intention to share my story with other mothers who have a difficult time breastfeeding. I hope that by sharing my story with you, you will feel comforted to know that you are not alone and you will feel encouraged to hang in there.

    “Remember not to be too hard on yourself if you have problems breastfeeding. Always try to enjoy your baby no matter how stressed up you feel. They grow up so fast. Breastfeeding problems last for only a few months. The benefits of breastfeeding and bonding with your baby lasts for a lifetime.”
