Okay ladies, this is going to be my third child. I have never really attempted breast feeding my boys. But I’m so…

Drink a lot of water!!!!! Be patients its going to be hard at first but dont give up:)

Make sure you eat! It's so important to maintain your nutrition because baby's literally sucking it out of you so there's none left for your body.

@myafaithh224, anything specific that I should focus on?

I believe they said lots of protein.

As long as you are eating semi healthy you should be good! I was so overworked because I wasn't eating and it eventually got to the point I passed out because I hasn't been eating. I would eat like a slice if bread here and maybe a bagel or something and id be lucky to eat that a day. Make sure to make time for your self as your health is just as important as the baby's.

@malbhurtado, 🙌🏽YES THANK YOU! I was just talking about this. Breastfeeding ISNT easy. It is hard, and painful, and stressful; but SO WORTH IT. I hate it when I see mommas set up for failure because no one prepares them for how hard it is at first. It’s so easy to quit in the beginning, but it does get easier and it’s a bond you can’t get any other way. 💕

Like the other ladies said push through it will get easier! I promise

@mommyof3., Pinterest has a bunch of do’s and don’t while breastfeeding! That’s where I learned all the foods I could eat while I was nursing. Start reading and watching videos. I put myself on a strict diet because I didn’t want to give my babygirl colic. I also ate lots of oatmeal, and drank lots of water.

Check into insurance covered breast pumps! You will definitely want one. Your insurance should cover one for you. To keep

You will want this for the first few weeks of breastfeeding. Your nipples will hurt the first few weeks of breastfeeding but this stuff is a lifesaver! And perfectly safe for baby.

@tasticmel, where do you get it? @amyrachellem, @melissaredfield87, @mrs.hibben, @knockout, @myafaithh224, @myafaithh224, @noenahiza, @malbhurtado, thank you ladies for the advise! I’m so excited and hoping that this will successfully work! Positivity is key. 👏🏼💁🏼‍♀️

@mommyof3. You're welcome:) i also suggest to take a breastfeeding class if you can, i took one and it was the biggest help. If you have WIC they have classes for that:) best luck
