5. The Highs and Lows of Postpartum: Breastfeeding Challenges, Sleep, and Family Loss - Morgan Lanzel

Morgan had some initial breastfeeding issues with the baby not transferring enough milk, as well as developing mastitis only days after the birth, and went on to have long term supply issues.  She was also surprised that her baby only wanted to sleep on her chest for the first 11 weeks.  She discusses the evolution of her daughter’s sleep, her return to work, and her dad’s cancer diagnosis just six weeks after her daughter was born.
