Joyful Lactation

1️⃣thing you wish you would’ve known before breastfeeding your baby…
•
If you have any experience breastfeeding, you know that there are things that come along with your journey that, in hindsight, you wish you would’ve known beforehand.
•
I have to admit, I have many more than 1 I could list. But, if I had to absolutely pick 1 (for this post), it would be that I needed to seek out help and support earlier than I did.
•
I waited 7 days, with cracked and bleeding ni***es to get help from a lactation consultant! That’s too long!
•
It is my mission to help new breastfeeding moms get the help and support they need, whatever that looks like for them, on their breastfeeding journey!
•
In order for me to provide the best support I can, I need to hear from you!
•

Do you like green eggs and ham?!
•
Wake up before your kids they said…
•
It’ll be good for you they said!
•
I didn’t believe them! I AM NOT a morning person. I used to wake up to the sound of a crying kid on the monitor or a toddler who would walk into my room, so sweetly (is that even a word 🤷🏽‍♀️) climb on my bed and say “mommy, I’m hungry!”
•
Umm…how about “good morning?” 😂😂
•
A few weeks ago, I was introduced to and her journaling technique. “I don’t journal, isn’t that like keeping a diary?” Nope! It’s not!
•
Fine 😤 I’ll try that too!
•
It took me a week or so to get up the motivation to wake up early, 20 minutes, before my kids! But I tried it!
•
I liked it! It’s like green eggs and ham…don’t knock it ‘til you try it!
•
So, now, even some weekend mornings, I wake up before my kids and journal. I start my day in peace instead of chaos! Oh, and with a hot cup of coffee ☕️ …cold coffee is another post for another day! Hahaha
•
Are you team wake up early or wake up to chaos? 👇🏼
