No one replied to my pleas for help...

I was devastated when it came to the time to just give up on trying to breastfeed. when I first had my son I was told my nipples were too small so I was given a breastpump and left to my own denices... no help, while mothers around me who were feeding by the breast were given every bit of help.

I came home with the pump and rang around groups and no one replied to my pleas for help. i still get upset now as i feel that I've let max down.

My heart was set on giving him the best start. I have wrote to the hospital board and explained my complaint as i don't want another mom to go through what i have, I'm glad to see I'm not alone. thank you for putting up this site xxxxx
