Join the breastfeeding Carnival: Breastfeeding Problems

It's almost Carnival time again and this month the theme is Breastfeeding Problems.

We're looking for posts that illustrate the problems that can accompany breastfeeding - problems such as thrush, blocked ducts, engorgement, leaking, sore/ cracked nipples, mastitis, abscess, low supply, nipple confusion, oversupply and all the rest!

For this breastfeeding carnival we're looking for two things. We want you to:

1) tell the story of how you overcame a breastfeeding challenge,

and

2) provide links to your favorite online resources which helped with your particular problem.

If you'd like to participate, please email me your post by 15th April 2008. The Carnival will take place on Tuesday 22nd April.

As usual, when considering posts to include, we're looking for:

• Well written and grammatically correct posts.
• Posts which are thoughtful and on topic. 
• Posts from blogs that are on topics that are of interest to readers of breastfeeding blogs (parenting, breastfeeding, etc.)

Examples of past carnival posts can be seen here.

Please note, if your post is one of those chosen, on the day of the Carnival you will be asked to link to all the other Carnival participants.

I had problems breastfeeding because I didn't produce enough milk. My baby was hungry and i was upset. I had to use Milkmaid Tea to help my body to produce more milk. http://www.all-natural-mommies.com/cart/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=33
I would imagine most women can breastfeed if they are given the proper support, advice, and supplies to deal with any problems they may encounter.
