dawn: I'm not sure
she has a good latch.

I think she does.
See, I don't know.

It hurts still.

It's going to hurt.
You're just starting.

I mean, she's still
just a few days old.

No one ever talks
about, like --

about it hurting
like this.

It does hurt.
I remember

I had to use this cream
on my nipple to try to help it.

And, oh, I would
get chills in my body.

I have like four different kinds
of creams I'm using right now.

It would really hurt.

It's been two weeks
since I've given birth,

and I've been
breastfeeding exclusively,

and it is extremely hard.
Like, my nipples hurt so much.

Everyone talks
about breastfeeding

as being a wonderful thing,
but it is so painful.

Yes, it was very painful
at the beginning,

but I believe in always being
very focused mentally.

That's why I gave birth
naturally.

So anyway, I think
that you just keep at it,

and eventually,
it will work.

There's just got to be
a quicker solution.

I went ahead and scheduled
a lactation consultant to come.

I feel like it will be helpful
for me to learn from an expert.

I'm surprised
you didn't want to ask me.

[ baby fusses ]
okay, my love.

You know,
you used to always ask me.

I'm surprised you didn't.

Well, I just -- you haven't
breastfed in 29 years almost,

so I didn't think that you would
necessarily remember.

I mean, it's been so long.
29 years is a long time.

It is a long time,
but, you know,

you should ask.
I did raise all three of you.

In the past,
I think you would ask.

When were you going
to tell me?

I'm telling you now.
This wasn't, like, a secret.

Okay.
Just made the appointment.

It's not like I've been
hiding this for very long.

It's not like I've
been hiding it period.

"very long."
I haven't been hiding it.

It just, you know --

right.
I'm telling you now.

Okay.
It wasn't a big deal.

Don't look into it so much.
Okay.

I do feel a little hurt
that cher didn't come to me

and ask me my advice
on breastfeeding

and just set up
a lactation consultant.

If you really want
to breastfeed,

eventually, the baby
will take to it.

Your nipples get harder and
better, and the baby adjusts.

You'll get through it.
Mind over matter.

I'm surprised
you didn't even tell me

that you made
an appointment with one.

Like, you just made it,
and you didn't even tell me.

I'm happy, but, you know,

you could always still feel
comfortable enough to ask me

like you used to.
No, I feel comfortable.

I feel comfortable to ask you.
Don't be silly.

I think you're reading
way too much into this.

I know things
are going to change,

but I just didn't expect it
to start so quickly.

This isn't a bad change.

This isn't --
don't look into this so much.

Right. It's just, you know, tell
me you made the appointment.

I'm happy for you
to make the appointment, but...

Yeah, but --
...In the past,

you would say, "oh, I'm going
to call a lactation consultant

and make the appointment."

my mind isn't on calling you

or running to your room
right now to tell you.

My mind is on her.

And so I don't think I need

to just ask you to make
an appointment, you know?

No, no, no. I just --
yeah, okay. I just, I hope --

I know I can come to you.
I already asked you for advice.

It's not working,
that advice.

Now it's time that I seek out
professional help.

You didn't really ask me
for so much advice.

You just said to me
that you're going

to the lactation consultant.
Alright, give me your advice.

You didn't ask me!
What's your advice?

You just said, "ma,
I made an appointment."

well, what's your advice?

My advice is it will --

the pain will go away.

kind of devastated me.

Brittani knows everything now.

I told brittani
some of the details

of the bachelor party.

But brittani still wasn't clear
about certain events.

And I think that's where
she was totally surprised

when other details
came out of frank's mouth.

When it was made clear,
she was really upset.

She was really upset
that he even showed up.

You know, when someone does
something so despicable

That's how I feel.
It's just a gross feeling

I get deep down.

kind of going through it myself.

I just wish
none of this happened.

it's heartbreaking.

Where do you think
frank is?

He was supposed
to be here by now.

I thought
you talked to him.

When you left,
I told him that I was leaving.

He asked me not to,
and I said "I'm leaving,"

so maybe he's upset.

I also feel like
between you two,

you guys don't really

I don't know
what to say to that.

Ultimately,

the one person
that I can really trust

would be brittani.

She wants that, like,
feeling of comfort.

She just wants more than my love
because I'm just her daughter.

I can't love her that way.

She's craving that love
that we all want.

We all have that little bit
of a void in our hearts

where we want to be loved.

And that's probably
what she wants.

She would probably say
I'm wrong, but I know I'm right.

I'll know soon enough.
If he's gonna be faithful,

if he's going to continue
to lie to me

about little things,

I know what to do,
my next step.

And I would just hope
that if you say you love me

as much as you do,

you'll at least
give me a little slack.

Let me just say this
out of love and respect.

If he hurts you one more time,
I want him to leave.

Definitely, I would
want him to move out.

I just feel like, you know,
she's just putting her heart out

for someone who doesn't
really truly love her.

He doesn't see what he did
was really wrong.

And that's the thing
that really makes me angry.

because it allows me
to have the freedom

to have the type of relationship
that I have with angelica.

But the distance is really
starting to hurt us.

He's been pressuring me a lot
to move back to omaha with him.

Congratulations
to your family.

Because of all my concerns
with breastfeeding,

I really want to seek out help
from a lactation consultant.

My mom thinks
she always knows the answers.

But when it comes
to breastfeeding,

she hasn't breastfed
in 29 years. I need someone

who actually knows
what they're talking about.

So, have you been able
to be up here with her

since she had the baby?

Oh, yeah, I love it, you know?
Oh, that's so lovely.

It's great to be mimi.
You could just love them

and don't have
all the stress.

And you can lay her down
however way you're comfortable.

Yeah. So, if you want
to take the dress,

I would just leave on
her diaper.

So, I see you guys
are all matching.

Do you do that all the time?

We try.
We do try.

We love it, you know?

So you now have matching clothes
for all three of you?

Oh, yes, we try.

I thought it was very unique
that dawn, cher, and baby belle

were all dressed alike
in their jean dresses.

That is not something
I often see at a home visit.

But I find that to be a really
sweet and precious thing.

I think it's just another way
for them to connect

as mother, daughter,
and now granddaughter.

I want you
to show me originally

what you would do
if I'm not here.

Okay, this is
how I would do it.

And then I'll try
to tweak from here.

Well, first of all,
I have to move her here.

Correct.
You want one hand

like she's giving a big hug
to the breast.

And then she starts like that.
Okay.

I feel a little bad
that she doesn't want

to ask me questions
on how to breastfeed.

I understand to have
a lactation consultant.

But why can't
she ask me also?

I mean, I did breastfeed
three children.

Do you see how you're kind of
leaning into belle?

So we always say it's baby
to breast, not breast to baby.

But you're always afraid
that the baby won't breathe

'cause of the nose,
you know, stuck like that.

If babies are drinking
and swallowing,

they're breathing just fine.

You don't need fancy pillows
if you don't want them,

because you can really use your
torso to support her, and --

we didn't even have those
pillows when we breastfed.

And we did fine.
So, I think if we could

take this out
so nothing's in your back...

Sometimes they're more
hindrance than help.

Also, I never had to hold
the breast the whole time

while feeding.

She's -- well, you --
she tries to text me,

and I can't answer the phone.
I'm like, "I'm breastfeeding."

is there a way
that she doesn't have to hold

so she has a free hand?
Correct.

Good.
Then you can call me.

Once she's latched
and you feel a comfortable pull,

you can take
that support hand off.

You want nice rounded cheeks
up to nice rounded breast.

But she's still holding
her breast with the other hand.

Right. Now, once she's on
and you feel a comfortable pull,

you should be able to take
that other support hand off.

Looks like
she's falling asleep.

♪

usually they pop off
when they're done,

so if she's still holding on,
she may not quite be done.

And then how do you know that
she's not just, like --

using the nipple
as a pacifier?

All breastfeeding moms
are mother nature's pacifier.

Cher: My mom is asking
a lot of questions.

I think my mom forgot
that I'm the one breastfeeding

and not her, so she just needs

to, like, calm down
a little bit.

I mean, I haven't gotten
a question in at all yet.

Stephanie:
Next thing I want you to do

is make sure her lips are out
like fish lips.

So just take a finger,
and you're just gonna

flip that lip out.
There you go. Perfect.

But then she's gonna stop.
No, not necessarily.

I think from experience, I know
a lot about breastfeeding.

It would be nice if she would
ask me, too, and include me.

If you give advice
to your daughter,

she sometimes doesn't want
to take it or believe it.

But if she hears it
from somebody else,

all of a sudden, she believes
it, and it's the way to go.

Okay. So, this is
the best way to do it.

If you're comfortable.
Are you comfortable?

The best way is the way that
you feel the most comfortable.

So, how many different
positions are there?

Lots.
Really?

It's absolutely possible
for support people

and family members
to be too involved.

If family members
are not allowing a new parent

to learn to be a new parent,
they're probably too involved.

I want to learn
how to make sure

that I know
how to do all the positions

so if she has any questions,
I can help her.

Absolutely.
This is why I bring my doll

and our demo breast
so you can practice

and still be modest.
So let's do this position first.

Sure. That one was called
the cross cradle.

Alright. Do you remember?
So that's when you do

opposite arm, opposite breast,
down the baby's back.

Make sure you feel
a comfortable pull.

And then you can lean back
with your baby.

Perfect. Exactly right.
We call that cross cradle.

Now let's do
the football one.

Great. So, football is the one
where they're at their side,

like you would kind of
hold a football.

Make sure your arm
is down their back

and they're pulled into
your body.

When they go wide like a baby
bird, you bring them in swift.

I have never had a grandmother

sit next to the breastfeeding
parent and act it out.

But I think for a grandma
that really wants to be involved

and needs that closeness,

it's a great way
for her to be involved.

But I'm so glad
that we did this.

It's my honor
and my pleasure.

And you are doing
an amazing job.

Remember, you know your baby
better than anybody.

Trust your baby.
Trust your body.

Have a lovely day, you guys.
Thanks!

You, too.
Bye-bye.

Dawn: Being a new mom,
you're exhausted.

So I wanted to go over
the positions

of how to breastfeed

so later on,
if cher has any questions,

I'll know how
to help her with it.

So I think she's going to see
how much she needs me.

You need that extra person
to help.

That was really helpful.
That was really good.

Cher:
My mom is so happy to be a mimi.

I'm so thankful to have a mother
who wants to help so much.

But she's wanting
to be so involved.

And right now,
I need this opportunity

to really be a family
with just me, jared, and belle,

without her in the picture.

There's something that jared
and I have talked about

that I need to tell my mom,

but I haven't had the courage
to tell her yet.

You asked
so many questions!

for a nice, drama-free night.

I think my mom is concerned

that jason isn't
the right person for me

things that he's had to do.

I do care about
my mom's concerns,

but at this very moment,
I really don't,

because jason has taking care
of the divorce,

got rid of his ex-girlfriend's
stuff in his house.

Yes, it took some time,
but it still got done.

how's your mom
and brett doing?

Uh...

I don't think so good.

She was just talking about just
some issues in the relationship.

What happened?

They had a big discussion
the other day,

and my mom called me,

and I listened
to the whole thing.

So you were basically
listening in?

Yeah.

What was it, like, an argument
or something?

No, not necessarily
an argument,

just them talking
about some issues

that they have
in their relationship.

Isn't that
a little strange,

you listening in
to their private conversation

like that?

No.

We do everything together,
support each other.

But that's their business.

No?

No.

My mom wants my support,
and I'm gonna give it to her.

You might be a little biased
in that department, but --

biased how?

That's your mother.

You're always
going to take her side.

Not necessarily taking her side,
just supporting her.

you'd understand that the most.

It's still a little strange
that, without brett's knowledge,

your mother called you
and had you listen in

on their little
discussion together.

It's not strange.
