How do photos of breastfeeding on social media pla

How do photos of breastfeeding on social media platforms influence constructs of breastfeeding, motherhood, and identity? This new study looked at the "brelfie" an offshoot of the selfie. Textually, three themes they found were:
1. Breastfeeding as a Natural and Magical Journey
2. Breastfeeding as Female Empowerment
3. Breastfeeding as a Struggle with the Desire for Support and Normalization

The overall conclusion was that "Brelfies should be encouraged to post this media to potentially help signpost to other breastfeeding parents that they are not alone in their breastfeeding journey."

If you've hesitated to share a picture of you nursing your little one, here is your encouragement to post it!

If your baby was nursing well and suddenly refuses

If your baby was nursing well and suddenly refuses your breast, this may be what some call a nursing strike. If your baby is younger than one year, even if she seems to be losing interest in breastfeeding, chances are she is not yet ready to wean. After all, during their first twelve months babies still physically need mother’s milk. Besides baby’s age, another clue that a nursing strike is not a natural weaning is that baby is unhappy about it. A nursing strike usually lasts two to four days, but it may last as long as ten days! It may take some ingenuity plus the following insights and suggestions to help a striking baby go back to breastfeeding.

Check out our blog post for WHAT TO DO if your baby goes on a nursing strike, WHAT CAUSES a nursing strike, and STRATEGIES FOR OVERCOMING a nursing strike 👏🏻
