Consultation on breastfeeding and mixed feeding
Mothers invite a lactation consultant home when there are some problems (painful feeding, beginning lactostasis, little milk, too much milk), and sometimes when they want to make sure that everything is okay.
When you need help:
-
with stagnation of milk (lactostasis) (pain, tightness in the chest for no longer than 12 hours);
- when it hurts to feed (I’ll teach you how to latch on correctly);
-
It’s not convenient to feed, your back hurts (I’ll help you choose comfortable positions for feeding);
-
want to know about the nutrition of a nursing mother;
-
increase lactation if there is not enough milk;
-
want to get away from overlays;
-
with nipple injury;
-
want to give up pumping;
-
want to switch your child from artificial feeding to breastfeeding.
How does the consultation take place?
I give an algorithm for action in each specific situation. I answer questions, provide reasonable information, and always teach practical techniques: breastfeeding, safe breast emptying techniques: lymphatic drainage massage to relieve swelling and gentle manual pumping.
I stay in touch by phone/internet for 1 week free of charge.
