Because breastfeeding is a natural way for babies to receive nutrition, many of us assume that it should be easy. But the reality is often very different. In this episode, we speak to four women about their respective breastfeeding journeys. We talk about how different the experience can be from child to child, how distressing it is to see your baby hungry, how it feels to receive disapproving comments and stares, the excruciating pain of sore nipples and how it is to breastfeed a toddler.
The panel consists of:
Saga Wilkinson, Designer Maker, mother to a 7 year old son and 4 year old daughter;
Natalie Jobling, doula and hypnobirthing teacher and founder of Joy of Birth, mother to a five year old girl and a two year old boy;
Eliza Flynn, pre- and post-natal personal trainer and founder of The Warrior Method, mother to three boys, 5 years, 4 years and 4 weeks old respectively; and
Barira Limpada, development facilitator and coach and mother to an 8 year old girl and 6 year old girl.
