I am once again sharing my personal breastfeeding journey, this time about my 2nd baby. I was right in the middle of starting my podcast when my baby was diagnosed with “failure to thrive” because of his weight gain issues. I had plenty of milk – had even donated! – but here he was below 1st percentile, struggling to gain weight. That was around 6 months, but before that we dealt with what I thought was a dairy allergy that turned out to be a parasite! I didn’t give up on breastfeeding even when I had so many reasons to stop. We made it through and continued to nurse beyond 12 months.
