The Places You'll Feed! is a parody moms everywhere can relate to.
If you breastfed your baby—or are breastfeeding now—you already know all about the struggles that come with the joy. But misery loves company, and it never hurts to get a friendly reminder that other women are suffering, too. That's why we're loving The Places You'll Feed!, a Dr. Seuss-inspired book written especially for lactating moms.
Written by mom of two Lauren Hirshfield Belden, this Oh The Places You'll Go parody was released last year, but we're here to give you a little #ICYMI. The Places You'll Feed! highlights all of the drudgery and misadventure that come with breastfeeding:

Belden's book is available on Amazon to gift to any mom facing the struggle.
