As we conclude our #WorldBreastfeedingWeek campaign, we are reminded that breastfeeding success is not only a mother’s journey, but a shared responsibility made possible through collective support.
Behind every mother who successfully breastfeeds, there are families who encourage her, healthcare workers who guide her, communities that understand her needs, and workplaces that create the right conditions for her to continue.
Tell us in the comments: Who was there to support you during your breastfeeding journey?
