I sat down to discuss what I did to make my breastfeeding journey a success through preconception, pregnancy, birth, the newborn phase and the first year... I ended up having a lot to share and therefore decided to cut the video into parts that may be applicable to where you are in your journey.
In this video I cover what I did to make my breastfeeding journey a success in birth.

I just found your channel and I love it! Thank you for sharing your experiences! I’m super health conscious but I find that I don’t always align with other people views on things and this is so refreshing!
I am glad to hear!
In the default UK care is basically midwife and even when you have a consultant. Due to baby being presumed at risk due to being a >5 centile I ended up with a c section with no1 it was meant to be inductions but that didn’t happen. Baby 2 no, I wanted a VBAC but my waters broke and I hadn’t gone into labour for almost 2 days so I decided to have a second c section. So the most interventions you can have. But both babies were successfully breastfed into young toddlerhood. So I want people to know you can make it happen even if you have to have a section! The hospitals push the formula very fast though you can make breast feeding happen even if you have had interventions. Women need to know this too!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I agree - Women need to know this.
@@carmenfourie5346 yes and it’s really good you had in your birth plan what you wanted if your birth didn’t go exactly as you’d hoped. I think many women are very ill prepared for breast feeding and unfortunately the marketing of formula has really worked and they think they have “low milk” etc etc. and they underestimate how hard it is to get baby back to the breast once you start bottle feeding, it requires a huge amount of will power and time. I was pushed to give bottle at the hospital with my first and she didn’t need it, with my 2nd I was ready to fend off the midwife’s with formula but fortunately didn’t need to!
