Review №1

I had a beautiful little girl last year and had the worst time trying to breastfeed. I had to pump exclusively for the first week - which meant pumping for hours every day because my supply was just establishing. I cried every day and had no idea how I would keep up this exhausting process. Enter MOLLIE and CRAFTED CHILDBIRTH. Even though I was out of state, Mollie walked me through helpful tips and tricks to get my baby off the bottle and onto the breast - which was no small feat when they are used to the easy delivery of the bottle. My baby nursed happily and pleantifully and it was a blessing...Then I had to deal with the problem of over production because my body thought I had twins due to all the pumping. So my next round of help with Crafted Childbirth helped me cut back on my milk without killing my supply.Finally, at just about 9 months, my daughter quit breastfeeding. It all but destroyed me. Wasnt I supposed to do this with her until she was in school (j/k)? But really, I felt like a failure because everyone I know breastfeeds until their kids are walking and talking. Here I still had an in-arm baby and I could not get her to nurse. Well, with all the compassion of a saint, Mollie helped me to understand babys natural process of weaning when SHE is ready and empowered me to let go of stereotypes. She made me feel good about all the work I had done to keep baby on mothers milk for as long as baby would take it and I needed that. I was able to stop shedding tears and enjoy motherhood as my relationship with my daughter evolves. Mollie also helped me to taper my milk supply in a non-painful manner and to keep my breasts healthy.No one told me how hard birth to 1 year would be, but I am glad there are people like Mollie there to help me through. She literally kept me sane!Thank you, thank you, thank you!Now do you have any tips on how to get my co-sleeping baby out of my bed????
