Dear Chanita,, don't beat yourself up. We can only do the best we can. If
it was a perfect breastfeeding world, everything would work out right. It
doesn't. As health professionals we also have a dilemma; we have consider
the safety of the child as well as being supportive of breastfeeding.
Since our breastfeeding services are also usually segmented, it makes
things even harder. I have a mantra " I did the best to the best of my
ability in this situation".
Lucky you were there!
