Nursing Problems
Breastfeeding comes easily to some lucky mothers. For others, it can be a struggle. What nursing mothers need more than anything is support, and you’ll find a lot of it here. Babble offers solutions to common nursing problems – from cracked, sore nipples to low milk supply to blocked milk ducts to mastitis and beyond. You’ll hear from women who persevered and powered through, others who turned to the pump, and still others who threw up their hands and cried uncle (and lived to tell about it). You can hear from lactation consultants about the three most common breastfeeding mistakes new moms make, get tips for top breastfeeding products, contemplate the growing popularity of milk banks and pumping exclusively, and even watch videos that can help you conquer breastfeeding issues.
