Some women adjust to breastfeeding easily without any problems while many others find it hard to learn.

If you are feeling discouraged, remember that you're not the only one.

Don’t give up until you have contacted a lactation consultant or breastfeeding supporter. These experts can watch you feed your baby and make recommendations to help improve the situation.

Breastfeeding takes practice. Give yourself as much time as you need to get the hang of it. Take it a day at a time and tell yourself that things can only get better.

By the time of your baby turns six weeks old, you'll probably be breastfeeding like a pro.
