Going to La Leche League

I have been having so much trouble with breastfeeding. It has been 27 days since Annika was born and I still can't breastfeed without pain. I am going to a La Leche League meeting today in the hopes that someone there can offer some good advice and encouragement. On Monday I plan to see another lactation consultant (I've been to six appointments since Annika was born). Here is a photo Julian took of us when I wasn't crying and swearing in pain.



I love this photo because it reminds me of why I want to breastfeed and why I am putting myself through so much pain. Annika looks so cozy and comforted in this photo and I have never seen her look like this while she is drinking from a bottle.
