It has been an amazing breastfeeding journey with my baby. Let me start off with saying that babies are smart, and they are incredibly instinctual. I think that combined with La Leche League’s support and information any breastfeeding journey can be properly navigated.

At my 19-week anomaly scan, I was prepared for the words: "I’m not happy with his top lip". I knew then, with certainty, that our little blessing did in fact have a cleft.
