There are all kinds of peculiar myths about breastfeeding. You may have heard that it is difficult and painful. You may feel too bashful to do it.

It does take a little learning, and a little getting used to, but it is more than worth effort. Most first timers take about 7-10 days to get used to it and then they have it down.

Finally, it is convenient and cost effective.
