Breastfeeding is the most natural thing in the world. Is it really? Unfortunately, there are sometimes painful problems associated with it, which breastfeeding counsellor Gabi Eckereder helps to solve in her Melbourne practice Mumsmilk. In addition to good education and preparation before the birth, this also includes a laser device.
Gabi Eckereder and her colleague give many valuable tips for successful breastfeeding on their website.
The 10 most important are:
- Prepare, inform, explore
- Choose a ‘breastfeeding friendly’ place for your birth
- Create a breastfeeding oasis at home
- Your baby belongs by your side
- Correct attachment & positioning are the keys
- Watch your baby not the clock
- Practice makes perfect
- Need help? Then ask for it!
