Australian Breastfeeding stories

[rachdent]

Hiya girls

As many of you know I've written a support group on breastfeeding, including lots of stories from real mums. I've got a publisher who is interested but we are targetting the Aussie market first and many of my stories are from overseas.

I particularly need Australian stories in the following areas:
- Breastfeeding while working
- Breastfeeding special needs babies.
- Breastfeeding an adopted baby
- Breastfeeding multiples

If you'd like to contribute your story, please email me at Pink.Ink077@gmail.com I'm looking for stories of around 500 words including your feelings about breastfeeding before having a baby and your experiences afterwards. Also any tips you'd like to give to new mums.

Hope to hear from you soon,

HI Tanni

Just wanted to say thanks for the support and I love your daughter's name by the way. If by any chance you have any breastfeeding photos and feel game to share them, then I'm also looking for lots more of them. You can email me at Pink.Ink077@gmail.com

Cheers

Hi Rach,

I wanted to wish you goodluck too.

I'm not the best advocate, I'm expressing now..so my story wouldnt be any good to you. But i think your idea is awesome!

Hey Kitkat

If you're expressing you're a great advocate! Don't ever feel like a failure because you are expressing - that requires such persistence and dedication. I have a section on expressing in the book, but unfortunately (and fortunately I guess) it's choca-block with stories.

Good luck as you continue...
