Postnatal Lactation Consultation
Breastfeeding is supposed to be natural, though it can be tricky if we don't have the right support around us. When things don't go as planned, finding the right specialist care early on can make all the difference.
During a 90-minute postnatal lactation consultation, we'll explore any issues you may be experiencing, such as latch problems, milk flow, positioning, or 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 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.
