Some parents find breastfeeding easier than others and ALL parents will tell you there are good days and more difficult days. However with good support you can achieve your own #BreastfeedVictory.
Those single feeds that take you further along your journey will over time, become huge milestones that mean the world.
And we mean EVERY feed is a victory; the day feeds, the night feeds, every single moment, every single feed should be celebrated. The snuggly ones, the painful ones, the first ones, the exhausted ones and the ‘I didn’t think I could do this’ ones.
Whether it be taking your first steps to educate yourself on breastfeeding, supporting a new parent with information or simply celebrating someone else’s victory we can all make a different to empower and support those around us.
