Breastfeeding Preparation Session

breast feeding

Preparing for breastfeeding is one of the most essential and valuable experiences for new mothers. For many women, proper preparation can make all the difference in successful breastfeeding after birth. In this session, I combine my knowledge as a lactation consultant with my experience as a nurse to provide you with all the essential tools and information you need to begin your motherhood journey with confidence.

By starting your breastfeeding preparation before your baby arrives, you'll feel more ready and assured, which will help you better navigate the challenges that may arise. Women who participate in my sessions often report feeling more secure and calm. We’ll discuss what to expect, how your body will respond, and how to increase your chances of a successful breastfeeding experience from the very beginning. I’ve seen the significant impact this session has on mothers, and how it strengthens their connection to the breastfeeding experience.

​

What Will We Cover?

  • This comprehensive session covers a range of important topics, including:

  • Understanding the life changes that come with the arrival of a newborn

  • Familiarizing yourself with your baby’s feeding and sleeping patterns during the first month

  • The benefits and importance of breast milk

  • Milk production patterns after birth and during the first month

  • Techniques for properly latching your baby to the breast

  • Breastfeeding positions

  • Managing common breastfeeding challenges (pain, sores, engorgement, and more)

  • Recognizing signs of hunger and fullness in your baby

  • Tips for adapting to and coping with this period of significant change

  • Expecting twins? We’ll discuss the best options for you too.


The session is suitable for first-time mothers as well as those who have faced challenges with breastfeeding in the past. It’s an opportunity to deepen your knowledge and learn what you can do differently this time to achieve your breastfeeding goals. I recommend joining the session around the 32nd week of pregnancy.

​

Online or In-Person, Individual or Group Sessions
I believe in personalized service, so the session can be either individual or group-based, depending on what works best for you. You can choose between online sessions from the comfort of your home or in-person meetings via Zoom. Are you part of a group of expectant mothers with similar due dates and want to meet at someone’s home? Let me know. No matter the format, each session is tailored to your specific needs, offering space for questions, sharing, and personal experiences.

​

I’ve had the pleasure of meeting mothers in my clinic who have attended this preparation session and hearing about the impact it had on their breastfeeding journey. I particularly remember one mother who came to me with significant anxiety after a difficult previous breastfeeding experience. Today, every time she sees me, she shares how the preparation and support she received transformed her breastfeeding experience completely.

​

Whether this is your first baby or your second, proper preparation can make all the difference. Do you have more questions? Unsure about something? I’m here for you. Reach out, and together we’ll find the best path for you.
