Are you forging a new path for generations to come by being amongst the first in your family to breastfeed or chestfeed? Is it hard to know what to expect or to even know what questions to ask as you choose this path for you and your baby? My guest Tashery shares her experiences of learning as she went, advocating for herself, and getting the right help and the right times to help her to reach her goals, even when she faced difficulty.
On this episode you will hear about:
- Early supplementation
- Weight loss in the first few days
- Pain while nursing
- Tongue tie release
- oversupply
- Milk blebs
- Mastitis
- Reaching out for help from lactation professionals
