I'm writing for Chicago Moms Blog today about breastfeeding in Formula-Fed America.
And, yes, I do realize I've opened a can of breastfeeding [or formula-feeding] worms. I hope we can still be friends even if we do not agree. :)

There's nothing better than good conversation ... but not while talking to myself. Will you play a part in this discussion?
AND will you pretty please have your email linked to your account or leave it for me so I can respond?
Thanks for taking the time to make these thoughts into conversation.

just wondering if it is possible to start breastfeeding again after your milk has "dried up". I breast fed for 5 months and stopped for numerous reasons. But if I chose to start again is it possible?
ReplyDeleteLorraine, it is possible to begin relactating. If you are in the Chicago area, I know a great lactation consultant who could help you out. If not, this page http://www.breastfeedingbasics.com/html/Relactation.shtml, has information about how you can get in touch with a certified lactation consultant.
ReplyDeleteI sincerely wish you the best in whatever decision you make, whatever the outcome. Big hugs to you, mama, because these parenting decisions are not easy.
I'm with you, Hyacynth - and posted a comment, as well :) Congrats on the lovely article, and keep your chin up. Interesting comment discussion!
ReplyDeleteI loved your article, and I also posted a comment. I think your last line here sums things up...can't we all just get along? Uggghh, I could go on and on, but I'll just be nice.
ReplyDeleteHyacynth I am not in the Chicago area, but I will check out the website. Thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteThanks, @Michelle and @MegRyansMom, which by the way is such a fun screen name. :)
ReplyDeleteLet me know if I can help in anyway, @Lorraine Renee'
