Is there anyone who nursed her second child, having tried
unsuccessfully to nurse her first, who'd like to correspond with a
woman who has found herself experiencing a deep sense of loss, now
that nursing is going smoothly with her second child?

 I don't think she anticipated this reaction in herself, and she feels
like something of a "second class citizen" in the breastfeeding world.
 She was honestly amazed when I told her that lots of League Leaders
had bottle-fed their first, and that lactnet had many such women,
because the contrast between the two methods tends to produce a strong
interest.  I think she just wants to meet a kindred soul and be
reassured.  I know her only thru email, not as a client.  Please
e-mail me privately if you'd like to chat with her.
