Lactation
Lactation support can begin during pregnancy.
During pregnancy, my role is informative. The main objective is to provide information to the pregnant person/couple/family, which will allow them to prepare for a more peaceful postpartum period that encourages breastfeeding. By providing the family with knowledge, they will be able to more easily avoid the emergence of obstacles; knowing how to resolve them, if they happen, and understanding when it is actually necessary to ask for help from third parties.
Support postpartum and throughout breastfeeding is more practical, whether to optimize breastfeeding, resolve difficulties, or identify issues that require follow-up by a healthcare professional.
