Persistence

I've decided that you have to be a stubborn person to breastfeed.

I know we all have our streak of stubbornness.

However, you have to be amongst the most stubborn.

It takes unwavering persistence. At every turn, people will tell you that it is okay to give up, that you tried your best.

Thus far, this has been the biggest challenge of my life and the most painful thing I've ever overcome.

I am proud of my stubborn self.
