These "bumps" can cause babies to be distracted at the breast, to become fussy, or to wake up more often at night. These changes ARE NOT a breastfeeding problem.
Instead, these changes are a GOOD SIGN! They prove your baby is developing normally.
The "Roadmap to Breastfeeding Success" graphic helps you know what to expect and offers tips on how to carry on for a few days as your baby becomes more capable and engaged with the world around her!
One of the most important Bumps in the Road for new mothers is returning to work.

Others are eager to return to work but anxious about leaving their baby
Such confusion and ambivalence are expected and NOT a sign of lack of attachment to your baby
