You're lucky to have such a supportive family! :)

The hardest part for me was in the hospital. The nurses tried to be helpful but they just ended up stressing me out. Baby Q had a difficult time latching fort the first few days but when we got home I just practiced with him constantly. Latching and sucking is mostly a reflex in a newborn and it's almost impossible to overfeed a breastfed baby, so practice latching and positioning even when your baby isn't hungry. I think practicing so much is why I've been successful at it. :)
