Myth #6: Breastfeeding Just Comes Naturally

Some people say breastfeeding is "natural," but the truth? It can be pretty tricky at first! Babies are born with a reflex to find the breast, but that doesn't mean they'll latch perfectly every time --- and moms aren't born experts either. It takes practice, patience, and sometimes a bit of coaching to get the hang of it. Don't be too hard on yourself if things aren't perfect right away. Every mom's journey is different, and whether you choose to breastfeed or not is a personal decision.
