Breastfeeding Support

Breastfeeding, while instinctual and natural, doesn’t always run smoothly for everyone.  We at  BirthSense™ want to ensure that you feel equipped with knowledge, tools, and confidence before your baby arrives. A good and early breastfeeding start is half the job done.  We also want you to feel supported if you are experiencing feeding challenges after your little one is born. We can help BEFORE or AFTER baby arrives

During your breastfeeding education workshop we will go over information to get you off to the best start possible.  We will talk about breastfeeding basics including how milk production works, latching, common challenges and how to know if your baby is getting enough milk. Your personal history and any major questions or concerns will also be discussed

At your private postnatal support session we will discuss the breastfeeding concerns that you are working through, go over a brief history of you and your infant, your birth story, observe a feeding, and create a plan to ensure things move in the right direction for you. We will talk about how to promote milk flow and supply if those are concerns you are working through. 

Pre or Postnatal Breastfeeding Counselling:

• Sessions will be for about 1-1.5 hours
• Plus follow-up as needed after the session
