IBCLC Postnatal Consultation
Breastfeeding may sound natural, but to be honest—it can be tricky for many of us! When things don’t go as planned, finding the right specialist care early on can make all the difference.
An IBCLC lactation consultant is the breastfeeding expert who can help get you back on track with just a consultation or two.
During our 90-minute session, we’ll explore what’s going on, whether it’s latch issues, milk flow, positioning, or even questions about bottle feeding. I’ll observe a feed, assess your baby’s mouth anatomy, review your pumping routine, and work with you to create a personalised plan. The goal is for you to feel empowered, to continue on your own.
If you're facing engorgement, blocked ducts, or early mastitis, my soothing lactation massage could be just what you need! These gentle lymphatic drainage techniques, passed down through generations in many Asian cultures like Singapore, help clear blockages and get your milk flowing smoothly. After just one session, many parents experience immediate relief, with softer breasts and, in most cases, avoiding the need for antibiotics.
