Description

When breastfeeding does not go as hoped, mothers often have feelings of loss, sadness, anger, fear, failure, guilt and self-blame. Mothers then say they are heart-broken, crushed, and even devastated. These painful emotions double a mother’s risk for postpartum depression. Yet, our healthcare system does not have guidelines in place to help mothers prevent the escalating emotions of Breastfeeding Grief. We have no “plan B” which guides mothers to promote optimal bonding when their breastfeeding goals are not met. And our mental health experts do not understand how to guide mothers in their emotional healing, so mothers can fully enjoy their baby with renewed confidence. Hilary Jacobson, author of “Mother Food: A Breastfeeding Diet Guide with Lactogenic Foods and Herbs” is a holistic breastfeeding specialist and clinical hypnotherapist. Her easy-to-read book “Healing Breastfeeding Grief” contains the essential information mothers need to navigate their way back into a positive sense of self, and an intimate connection and bond with their baby.
