Hello you amazing Mommas!

I have been so busy with new bubbas, that I completely forgot to have a look at the new year's price increase.

After thinking about it, I decided to keep it the same as last year. Everything has gone up in price, therefore, I won't be upping mine.

Support still needs to be affordable!

⛽ I am only asking a little more if the consultation is outside a 10km radius from Langenhovenpark... Seeing that the fuel price is crazy at the moment. 🙄

Looking forward to help many new babies and mommies get the best possible chance of successful feeding.

The 3 KEY things I check when doing a consultation:

1. Anatomy (mom&baby)
2. Feeding assessment
3. Mental health check

So many mommies with their second and third babies come to me for support, because the first, and sometimes, second, breastfeeding journey did not go as they hoped.

And of those, 80+%, share that they "did not have enough milk", "my milk wasn't nutritious enough" or "my baby was allergic to my milk".

All of these reasons, we largely, can find a solution for, and it mainly stems from the 3 major checks I do.

Only a very very small percentage of moms truly can not breastfeed. All other things, we can work with, or work around.

🍼I have had 6 little ones in the last two weeks, who struggled with taking the bottle.

This puts an immense amount of stress on mommies who have to go back to work soon.

My for this ... Find the sweet spot.

🍬Between 4-6 weeks even upto 10 weeks, it is still relatively easy to introduce bottle. After that, it can become difficult.

As soon as breastfeeding is well established, then you can gently start to express. Start offering bottle, with a wide neck teat, and paced feeding. Ideally, after baby wakes up from a nap.

The "don't express or introduce a bottle before 6 weeks" phrase, is a general rule. But, working closely with a LC is advised. There are ALWAYS exeptions to this rule.

🚨If you are new to the expressing journey and need support, or wondering about bottle introduction, feel free to contact me for a consult.
