Keep Calm and Latch On

I just want to share this image which I got from the Breastfeeding Fanpage. This is very informative especially to some nursing moms who feel that they have low milk supply.

I knew so little about breastfeeding when I started my journey. And I also underwent that feeling and paranoia of having low milk supply. In the image above, I experienced the last four bullets pretty much and I thought I was losing my supply already. (Related stories here and here.)

So, with lots and lots of research, I armed myself with enough information. I finally calmed and just kept on nursing my son. We're nearing our 17th month mark! Hooray for breastmilk! 

To nursing moms out there like me, don't give up if you feel like you're losing your supply already. Arm yourself with information, join seminars, get help from a Latch Consultant if necessary, join forums of other breastfeeding moms, etc. Just continue your journey, keep calm and latch on. :-)
