034 A Mother and Daughter's Adoptive Breastfeeding Story with Jennifer Cooper, IBCLC

We've talked with other adoptive mothers before, but this one is different!  Jennifer brought her daughter home as an older baby and when she finally began nursing, her daughter was 2 years old.  Bringing a toddler to the breast required determination but it was well worth it, according to both Jennifer and her daughter Helina.  (Yes, you'll hear what 8-year-old Helina has to say about her nursing experience in this extraordinary episode!) See more information on our show notes at: www.SweetPeaBreastfeeding.com/podcast.

Om Podcasten

We are proud to present a series of podcasts for parents Breastfeeding Outside the Box, where we aim to support the nourishing and nurturing of babies in exceptional families - families who historically have not received the help and support they need and deserve. Our exceptional families include adoptive, intended, and foster families; gender and sexual minorities; families with special needs babies; parents who have had breast surgery; mothers with IGT or low milk production for other reasons; exclusively pumping mothers; and more.
