Ep13: Breastfeeding When the Odds are Against You. With Rachel Murphy.
Rachel Murphy (IBCLC) joins us to talk not only about the difficulties of breastfeeding, but also about making it happen when the odds are really against you. Rachel tells her journey of struggling to breastfeed with her first daughter, to emergency surgery and a NICU stay for her second daughter who was born with down syndrome. Her determination and resilience is so inspiring and what led her to become a lactation consultant and start a monthly group through Julia’s Way founded by Ella Gray Cullen supporting breastfeeding for babies with down syndrome. If you have had troubles breastfeeding or are about to embark on your breastfeeding journey this episode is for you.
