There are many parts to a lactation consultation, but the overall goal is for me to hear whatâs been hard, whatâs been great, and to be there as a support through all of the ups and downs.
Most visits look like the one in this video, but sometimes, I just sit with a mama who needs a listening ear and smiling face.
Sometimes, all a mama needs is to hear that sheâs doing a good job, and that breastfeeding isnât the barometer for how good of a mother she is.
I love my job and count it as a great honor to be part of this special time in a familyâs life â¤ď¸
