As we struggle daily to help mothers overcome barriers and achieve their breastfeeding goals through all kinds of challenges, it is nice to come across an essay like this one by Olivia Hinebaugh, titled "Phases of a Nursling."

This short essay, posted on December 9, 2013,  captures one mother's view of the different stages of a nursing experience. Very sweet and funny. Nice photos, too.
