This is my family’s story about feeding our first child, Soren. Feeding was not as easy as I had anticipated. With the support of our local midwife, my dedicated partner, and a lactation consultant, we were able to reach our goal of feeding him my milk directly from my breasts. I hope this story can inspire others to ask for support when you need it, and accept it when it comes your way. Breastfeeding doesn’t always look exactly how we imagined it would be, but it can be a beautiful journey nonetheless.
