100 Words {for August 18}

August 18, 2012 by Amber McCann, IBCLC Leave a Comment

In celebration of World Breastfeeding Week and National Breastfeeding Month, I’m sharing from our 100 Words Project every day.


 
A story from Amy:

Months of worry. Will he be smart? Will he love me? So many “Will he?” questions. A long birth. He cries and I answer. Am I holding him right? Are people judging me? My hands don’t know what to do. HE does. Before I know what is happening he is nursing. I blink and realize I have a strong hungry boy. Even before I ever asked him to he was taking as much care of me as I was for him. “Don’t worry Mom. I’ve got this.” It is not always as difficult as they say. Sometimes everything just…..clicks.
