Breastfeeding Expectations: The 4th Month

About this episode

The episode discusses the expectations and challenges new moms face during the fourth month of breastfeeding.

New moms usually have a certain expectation of what breastfeeding is going to be like. Sometimes it happens as planned, and sometimes not. Today we're continuing our year-long series where we follow three women on their breastfeeding journeys. How are they coping with their breastfeeding challenges, such as sudden changes in behavior? And what are they doing to help prepare themselves for going back to work? Plus, what would cause a sudden drop in supply? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
