Mothers around the globe tell me they need to hear about other women's struggles, determination, and triumph, or resignation when breastfeeding does not work out.This is how they persevere. It is very similar to climbing Mt. Everest. The experienced climbers inspire the novice. 

So share your story.

• Talk about your discouragement. Tell them how you hung in there in spite of the difficulties.What worked for you? Who supported you through your journey?

• Perhaps you are one of the fortunate few that didn't have any struggles. Tell us about it. It is always wonderful to hear how things ought to be.

• Did you struggle with your milk production? Or did your milk never 'come in'? We need to hear from you.You are not alone.
