A relation between a baby and its mother is always a special one. But many times a mother goes through lots of ups and downs in their life while producing a baby. She has to go through many emotional feelings which are positive and sometimes negative too.

Pigeon and WATConsult have launched a new Breastfeeding Week initiative, #StandByNursingMoms. The campaign aims to increase the support of the brand towards nursing mothers who are going through emotional turmoil and ambiguity during this life phase. The campaign was being carried out as an online social experiment.

The promotional video that was posted on social media sites features three young 28-36 year-old mothers. They speak about the descriptors that are commonly associated with breastfeeding and motherhood and then show how it really feels like becoming a nursing mother and the unpleasant feelings of anxiety and discomfort that emerge from this experience. The film also emphasizes that encouragement from their loved ones and concern for the wellbeing of their child are primarily responsible for helping them to resolve these emotions and regain a positive attitude.

The company has continued the campaign collaborating with mothers who are actively associated with social media and are influencers who share their experiences. The campaign is a step towards recognizing and normalizing a new mom’s various emotional responses which are not all pleasant and satisfying.
