A one-hour lactation consultation especially designed for mums with newborn babies aged between birth and 6 weeks
Ideal for reassurance that breastfeeding is off to a smooth start.
We will focus on the essentials — checking breastfeeding attachment and making sure baby is swallowing consistently and effectively transferring milk in the early days after birth
What is covered:-
what does good attachment feel like and usually look like
signs of milk letdown
signs of swallowing and milk transfer
signs of a “good” feed
how do you know you are making enough milk
how do you know your baby is getting enough milk
For more complex issues or if more time is needed for questions or other discussion this will require booking the standard two-hour consultation. The one-hour visit may be able to be extended on the same day if requested for an added fee
