The in-depth support and reassurance that women who wish to breastfeed need and deserve. Looking at your whole clinical picture, we’ll dispel myths, increase knowledge around your baby’s needs and build confidence in your self and your ability to feed your baby.
Getting feeding off to a good start is so important, but what’s truly crucial to the foundation of feeding is understanding your baby in those early days and having constant support and reassurance.
It’s reported that most mothers stop breast feeding earlier than they would have liked, and that in most case this is due to feeding issues and lack of support around day 3-7. It's a maddening statistic - especially given that it's purely down to lack of support and education.
It’s normal for a baby to lose weight on days 3-5, but with that comes worry and a feeling of responsibility, often accompanied by a lack of belief in the body’s capabilities and a failure to look at the whole clinical picture.
I’m on hand to help not only dispel the feeding myths but help reassure you, build your confidence in yourself and your ability to feed your baby. It’s not always the easy journey we'd like to believe it should be, but with my reassurance, support and education, it can be.
