reason, adjustments may be necessary. Be aware of some red flags
that may indicate your breastfeeding relationship needs your help:
- You feel yourself withdrawing from your nursing child.

- You feel you have no choice when it comes to nursing.

is definitely worth it, you may find that your attitude becomes
