  1. 11 things you should know before you breastfeed

    by , 02-08-2012 at 14:30 (The Official Bub Hub Blog!)

    When I was pregnant the advice I remember most was from a friend whose baby was four months old at the time.

    She told me that, for her, breastfeeding was hard at the beginning. She struggled with cracked nipples and terrible mastitis but she was glad she had gotten through it and was now breastfeeding happily.
