Midwives are essential in supporting breastfeeding through various means:
1. We provide new mamas with vital information about the benefits of breastfeeding, including its nutritional advantages for baby and health benefits for mamas.
2. We offer hands-on assistance with latch techniques, positioning, and managing any challenges that may arise, ensuring that mamas feel comfortable and confident.
3. Transitioning to motherhood can be overwhelming. We offer emotional encouragement, helping to alleviate stress and anxiety, which can positively impact breastfeeding success.
4. We offer postpartum visits to monitor progress, addressing issues early on and reinforcing positive breastfeeding practices.
5. We connect families with local breastfeeding support groups or lactation consultants, fostering a community of support that extends beyond the immediate postpartum period.
By combining these elements, midwives significantly contribute to increasing breastfeeding rates and promoting long-term health for mothers and their babies.
We Love mamas 🤰and we Love babies 👶
We are your Midwives!
