Breastfeeding challenges are quite common, so if you feel alone or like you’ve failed your baby, know that you aren’t alone! Breastfeeding comes with its ebbs and flows, and during the first few days or weeks, it may feel overwhelming. With time, practice, and support from A Woman’s Place, you can overcome all of the breastfeeding concerns you may face.

• Latching Issues - Getting a proper latch can be tough at first, but this is important because it is key to ramping up your milk supply and keeping your baby fed.
• Sore Nipples - Sore nipples is one of the major reasons people stop breastfeeding. They can get extremely tender, but hang in there, they should toughen up within a few weeks.
• Breast Engorgement - Just when you thought your breasts couldn’t get any bigger, the milk came in after birth as its production ramped up. Breast engorgement should only last between 24- to 48-hours, and only improves when your baby begins breastfeeding.
• Breastfeeding may seem straightforward, but there are a variety of issues you may need help with. Don’t go the breastfeeding journey alone and find the help you need for a positive breastfeeding experience
