Being in a public hospital, I must have seen about 10 different midwives in the 2 days/nights I was in there, each one with their different techniques and opinions. Just when I thought I'd had one method sorted, well sorted enough for one feed, someone else contradicted what I was doing...

We're also on plain Heinz Step 2 (I love the giraffe on the tin, he's so cute!).


There is that fine line between persisting with something that eases out conscience, but places our children in a very dangerous position and that of swallowing our pride and dealing with the guilt in an attempt to nourish our children adequately. It seems so logical and simple when you put it in black and white - it is a pity it doesn't seem to help the situation between our ears! You are great mums and it isn't all about boobs at the end of the day!
Yep, that's exactly it!
