What Happened During Pizza Night That Left This Breastfeeding Mom in Tears?
Motherhood Comes First
Jackie’s family pizza night started perfectly, with her kids delighted by the unusual, tasty pizzas. Their joy was contagious. But as the evening unfolded, her newborn had other ideas, demanding attention and food with insistent cries. Did you know newborns usually need to nurse 8 to 12 times in the first month?
Committed to exclusive breastfeeding, Jackie tried to comfort him, yet he continued to fuss for more. Amidst the busy restaurant, she didn’t hesitate. She chose her baby’s comfort over worrying about any sideways glances, confidently settling down to nurse. For Jackie, motherhood is about intuitively responding to her child’s needs with love and devotion, regardless of the setting.
