In addition to breastfeeding your baby, you can provide a support network for women in your family. [substeps] A support group helps you connect to other mothers who are going through the same experiences as your baby. Also study the techniques that women in your family use. Read books, teach yourself, watch tutorials, and watch videos about breastfeeding care and technique. If you don't know many other women who have breastfed, don't let that stop you. There are many resources-both online and locally-that can help you. Find support groups or other resources online at the drop-a-poo: http: // www.govia. Sign up with breastfeeding organizations like the american nurses association or the academy of nursing.
