Breastfeeding with three children: from pain to ease
In an Instagram post six weeks after giving birth to her son in March, Faith compared her first two breastfeeding journeys—one “hurt like mad” for seven months and another that required exclusive pumping for three months—to a relatively smooth start with her third child, who latched immediately.. She now pumps twice daily, uses fenugreek to support supply, and supplements with formula as a safety net, urging mothers not to blame themselves for feeding challenges.
Who filed the injunction against the ex?
The report says Faith secured a legal injunction after the chase, but it does not specify whether she filed it personally or through legal counsel. the lack of detail leaves the exact legal process and any subsequent court rulings unclear.
What legal outcome followed the injunction?
As of the podcast recording, there has been no public update on whether the ex faced criminal charges or further civil penalties. The absence of this information highlights a gap in the public record about the enforcement of the protective order.
