Mods,
I think some women who are unable to breastfeed, for whatever reason, actually go through stages of grief. Looking back, I certainly did with baby #4. I thought about posting this in breastfeeding challenges, but I don't know. I think these women actually need help with dealing with their grief over the loss of the breastfeeding relationship. There is a post in lactivism that really got me thinking about this. Would that be an appropriate topic here? I know many people would find it silly, I mean grieving of breastfeeding when PEOPLE are dying (I just had to get through the 3rd anniversary of my dad's death so I totally get it!). Anyway, I could go on forever on this topic, but just wanted to see if it would be okay?
