Breastfeeding Your Baby

In 2023 we are determined to help you reach your breastfeeding goals!

While breastfeeding is the natural way, it doesn’t always come as naturally and easily as you would think. Don’t worry, I can help!

Hiiii! Long time no see 🤗 Whewwww life has been life’ing ya’ll! I’ve been mom’ing, traveling, healing and growing. This last year I’ve been primarily taking doula and breastfeeding clients through Mindful Birth, however I AM now available to start taking private latch support clients in SWFL again!

If you just had a baby (or are due soon!) and are looking for help breastfeeding, please reach out [email protected]

I think every parent with a new baby can relate to this at some point. Those late night (early morning) feeds and diaper changes are H A R D! What’s something you’ve done to make the nights flow a little smoother?

The introduction of the bottle doesn’t have to end your breastfeeding journey! It is ideal to avoid bottles in the early 3-4 weeks if you goal is to primarily nurse from the breast; mainly so that your baby can establish a solid latch, and pull in + regulate your supply. Everyone starts bottles at a different time, for different reasons. It’s only fair to point out that while starting too early and not PACE feeding can negatively interfere with breastfeeding, waiting too long to start bottles can have its challenges too, as the baby may not want to take a bottle. At the end of the day, bottles are a reality for many families at some point, so when it comes time to incorporate them, PACED bottle feeding is the way to go!

Hi all!

Less than a week away:

"Breastfeeding Your Baby", a 2.5 hour live class on Zoom, for anyone due in December, January or February.

When: next Monday Dec 7th at 6:00.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

You'll learn directly from ME 🤗, a Mindful Birth Services and Doula Care *Labor Doula and Postpartum Specialist*. I have worked professionally with literally hundreds of new moms to specifically help them be successful with their breastfeeding journey and I’ll help YOU get your best start to feeding your baby, too. You'll feel empowered and confident by the end of your class!

Here's what you'll learn:

☑️ feeding cues, what are they, how to tell when it's time to feed your baby

☑️ positioning, common positions, lesser-known positions (hint: side-lying can be a life-saver if getting sleep is at all a concern of yours)

☑️ latching, how to tell if baby isn't latching well, what happens if there are latch issues and how to resolve the issues

☑️ soreness, what's normal and when it's time to seek help

☑️ partner support, how dad/partner can help even if they are not doing the feeding and why support is so crucial to bf success

☑️ is baby getting enough? The age-old question and very real concern of all breastfeeding mothers. How to tell!

☑️ common breastfeeding concerns and how to cope through them

☑️ colostrum, how much do you produce right after birth, how much does your newborn need

☑️ the golden hour (the hour after baby is born)

☑️ the baby crawl (the first breastfeeding session)

☑️ breastfeeding mindset (planning in advance, gathering your support and resources)

☑️ engorgement (when your milk comes in 3-5 days after birth, how to cope with the potential discomfort)

☑️ hand-expression (how-to and why you need to learn)

☑️ lip ties (very common and underdiagnosed reason for bf issues; learn in advance what to look for, and who to turn to to resolve the potential issue)

☑️ breastfeeding laws and rights

and MORE
