Parenting Skill:Different Feelings About Breastfeeding

Breast feeding is the highest prize for new mothers that no other trophies could substitute it.

 

It is natural for new mothers to feel jittery, anxiety, worries and excitement while looking forward to experience breast feeding for the first time.

 

When I first offered my breast to my baby ( 20 years ago), I was inexperienced and lack of knowledge.

I was utterly disappointed that the nurses did not guide me and weren’t helpful either.

 

When my baby was rejecting my breast, I was nervous, disappointed and worried.

Was I being too persistent towards my baby?

Was I hurting her?

Why isn’t she opening up her tiny mouth?

Isn’t she hungry?

Then why is she crying and not sucking my breast milk?

 

These were the questions that had been pondering in my berserk mind which I am sure that other new others may had encountered the same problems too.
