Links
The thing
about the Internet is there is always more information out
there.
Here are a few of my favorites
for working and breastfeeding mothers, with a few general
breastfeeding sites thrown in for good measure:
101 Reasons to
Breastfeed your baby - this is a fully referenced list of
the advantages of breastfeeding - medical reasons, convenience,
personal convictions - it's all in here, and an inspiring list
to keep on hand.
Working and
Pumping Homepage - this is a page I put together a few years
ago when I was the "community leader" of the ivillage Working
and Pumping message board - the preliminary version of this
site.
Kellymom
Working and Pumping links - Kelly has been busy creating new
content for her site - a lot of it mirrors what you'll find
here, but in a different voice and very thoroughly referenced.
Breastfeeding.com’s
working mother pages - a nice collection of articles for
working mothers, including stories from moms who have been
there.
Treating Thrush - another page from kellymom, with a lot of
options for treating thrush when the standard medical protocols
aren't working, or things to try before going the route of
medication.
Nipple Confusion - kellymom again, with reasons that
introducing a bottle or pacifier too young can interfere with
breastfeeding.
Breastfeeding and
the Working Mother - a nice page put together by a working
mom, with her story in her own words. Inspiring. |
