Common Breastfeeding Problems

In my experience of logging 19 years of breastfeeding our eight children, including a baby with Down Syndrome and partially breastfeeding an adopted baby, breastfeeding is a pleasurable experience. But, like all aspects of childcare, breastfeeding is not always problem-free. The good news is that nearly all of the early breastfeeding problems can be corrected by getting the right help at the right time – before baby learns painful sucking habits. That’s why we’ve taken great care to give you practical tips to help you and your baby enjoy one of life’s greatest experiences – breastfeeding.
