Support network helped us to breastfeed, say mums

Title: Support Network Crucial for Breastfeeding Success, Say Moms Two mothers who faced challenges with breastfeeding their babies found that a peer support group was instrumental in helping them overcome those difficulties. The mums, who wished to remain anonymous, credit the support network for enabling them to continue breastfeeding their infants. One mother described the group as a "lifeline" during the initial weeks, providing practical advice and emotional support when she was struggling. The other mother noted that the peer-to-peer guidance and sharing of experiences helped her to persist with breastfeeding, even when she had considered giving up. Both women emphasized the importance of accessible and non-judgmental support for new mothers navigating the often-complex journey of breastfeeding. They believe that such support networks can make a significant difference in helping mothers achieve their breastfeeding goals and providing the necessary resources and encouragement during challenging times.
