Were you a breastfeeding mama?
It was really quite an honor. WIC in my Mom's hometown asked me to come. I had gone there when I moved home during the last deployment to give them some formula and explained my situation. Then they invited me a few months later. It was so cool!
Quoting LOswald0314:
That's cool. I would love to do something like that.
Quoting armywife1229:I sure was! I actually attended an event last year during this week to share my story with other breastfeeding mamas or soon-to- be mamas.

Glad you were able to continue.
Quoting armywife1229:I had this too! I had mastitis that abcessed. Most horrible thing ever, they had to drain the clogged ducts with needles in the hospital. Horrible! I kept going though, and made it to 14 months with Abigail.
Quoting Dani_Lynn:
I was with my first. After 3 bouts of mastitis, one that had me hospitalized for 3 days on multiple Iv antibiotics, DS was formula fed.
