For World Breastfeeding Week (August 1 – 7) we will share moms’ breastfeeding stories from around the world. If you would also like to share your story, get in touch at info@mombloggersforsocialgood.com.

While there are many mothers who want to breastfeed and can think of no other way to feed their babies, sometimes there are unexpected breastfeeding challenges experienced by mom and baby.

Alex, one half of the UK mummy blog Lamb and Bear, wrote about the challenges she experienced with her baby and how midwives helped her overcome them. Read Alex’s story at Breastfeeding Challenges.
