Latching was impossible. <br /><br />I felt inept. I would look at other mothers who did it so naturally and would just be in awe. Like - this is something I am supposed to just get, right? women all over the world, for centuries have done it. What the hell was my problem.<br /><br />I still have a complex about it. It is something that makes me sad that I couldn't keep it up for very long with either of my two children.<br /><br />Glad you got through the hard stuff and are doing it!<br />KiranMasala Chicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04713762033892464889noreply@blogger.com
