Not sure that I would be an expert per se, but I've had lots of difficulties with breastfeeding that we worked through. I would be willing to share those experiences. My first son and I had difficulties, so much so that I almost quit, but because my husband was so encouraging and supportive, my son nursed until he was 18 months and I was 3 months pregnant with my second. My second son and I currently are having problems simply because he was born a month premature, but I am confident that I will be able to nurse him for the same amount of time as I was able to nurse his brother. I am a bit rusty since I am now a stay at home mom, but I was a teacher for 4 years before that. I mainly taught the 5th grade. I'm also a good listener for anyone who needs an ear.

Not quite sure what is meant by personal interests. If it means what do I do in my spare time, then the answer is "what spare time??" I do find that I enjoy cooking.

I don't quite remember the exact website, but I'm sure that there was a link from another site to this one, or maybe it was a result of a google search for mom support. It's been a while, it's one of the two.

I've been meaning to join for a while now. I've gotten a lot out of reading the posts about getting organized. (Flylady was a lifesaver!) But I feel that I would benefit more from this site if I was inside the building rather than looking in from the window, so to speak.
