Breastfeeding Resources

Sharing breastfeeding resources that I found on the net.

I have a lot of colleagues despite working as a full time working doctors with the pressure of Masters exam and patients/bosses high expectations at work – still managed to breastfeed their babies. They are my idols and I really wish I could emulate them.

I do not expect breastfeeding would come easily. My sis have been generous lending me her Spectra 3 and her Phillips Avent manual breast pump. She is my personal lactation counsellor And I try to read up on the subject as she advised.

My favourite source of info were http://susuibu.com/ and http://www.kellymom.com/

You can also join FB groups like the Breastfeeding Mother to Mother Support

And there are youtube vids like this one
