Links for the nursing mother
If you happen to have AOL,  email me for a path to the breastfeeding support folder.  I have found the support there to be invaluable to the success of our nursing relationship.
This site is a great resource, and is where most of my links are.  I have some others of my own and some favorites I will share.  Dr. Jay's site is excellent for all sorts of resources not just breastfeeding.  This will take you to the breastfeeding links page-www.drjaygordon.com
I really wish I had not been so uptight with my first daughter.  I had preconceived notions about what La Leche League meetings would be like and let that keep me from going.  Now the only thing that keeps me from going is lack of sleep but I still try to make them.  A leader will help you any time day or night as would I.  This link takes you to the state by state directory-www.lalecheleague.org/
Promom.org has one of my favorite links 101 reasons to breastfeed. If you were even thinking of spending tons of money on formula, this link is sure to give you some food for thought<pun intended>.  And another link to promom and some of Jack Newman's wonderful articles on reasons why breast is best and many links to show you why Jack Newman feels this way-promom.org.
Even with the best of help and our best intentions, problems do occur.  With my newest nursling thrush has been my major concern whereas with my first nursling I had more problems with sore nipples because of improper latches. Now with my doula work blossoming I will have to be able to pump and store my milk efficiently.  Many moms do this and manage to keep breastfeeding their babies til they self wean.  www.pumpingmoms.org is a great support site for working mama's.

She just can't help but cut up while nursing now that she is getting bigger.  But I think this was one of those grateful smiles!
