Saint Paul, 1278 Selby Ave, St Paul, MN 55104, USA
About the event
Planning for your lactation journey is just as important as planning for your birth. Just like birth there is a wide variety of outcomes in what your journey could look like, so feel supported and feel ready to tackle anything that comes your way. It's important to understand that there are two people in this feeding relationship and understanding the anatomy and physiology and roles at play is really important: it's the difference between success and failure.
You can expect to learn:
- Anatomy and physiology
- Hormones
- Milk supply
- The golden hour through the first 48 hours
- Troubleshooting common problems and how to identify them (clogged ducts, mastitis, thrush, etc.)
- Artificial nipples
- Supplies you might add to your lactation station
- Pumping
...and so much more!
But wait, there are freebies!
- Lactation Survial Guide
