Helping Breastfeeding Mothers Grieve
by Cynthia Good Mojab, MS, IBCLC
Loss is an integral part of life. Grief is the natural, normal and healthy
response to loss. Breastfeeding is the biologically normal means of
nurturing human babies and young children. Because of its survival value,
breastfeeding is necessarily robust. Because breastfeeding is necessarily
robust, fluctuations in supply due to loss and other psychosocial stressors
can be expected to be temporary.

It's All Right to Grieve
by Cynthia Good Mojab, MS
I'd like to add a few thoughts on grief. I'm a mental health professional
who has been trained to recognize the processes that people tend to undergo
when they experience a significant loss. Yet, I keep wondering why I'm so
tired, so unable to concentrate, etc. Grief is often easier to recognize in
someone else than in ourselves. I have to remind myself to be patient and
kind with myself, to give myself time.
