“The day of was hard. Very hard. I handed my infant daughter over to the surgeons and went to the surgical waiting room,” she shared with Breastfeeding Mama Talk’s Facebook page. “As far as support went, I was alone … Finally, after about four hours, they called me to come nurse her. Words cannot describe how overjoyed I was to finally see her pretty little face and to hold her beautiful, swollen self. They said they had tried lots of techniques to calm her but she must just want momma.

Either way, I know I’m doing the right thing. I know I’m providing [my daughter] exactly the comfort and nourishment she needs to grow and heal. Just as I did with her three big sisters, I will continue to nurse my sweet girl, despite the comments, harsh words, or judgments.”
