All Things Breastfeeding Episode 30: Finn’s Nursing Strike

There is nothing worse than a nursing strike! This week on the podcast, Intern Barb tells her experience with a recent nursing strike. Just when breastfeeding was so easy, a new challenge presented itself. It was an extremely emotional experience, and luckily Finn is back to nursing now! Barb and Finn before the strike   Finn nursing for the first time in the middle of the night using the “bait and swtich method”.   Finn nursing for the first time on his own accord before going into work.   Shownotes: If you need more information on nursing strikes, check out Episode 23 of the podcast. Kellymom also has a wonderful resource page with a bunch of helpful hints. Trying to relax, ha, ha, and gently offering the breast seems to work well.
