Breastfeeding, and breastfeeding for an extended period of time, is SUPER important for a baby’s immune system. But women can have trouble breastfeeding, both with milk production and the baby not latching well to the mother’s breast. A lactation consultant can educate you on how to breastfeed successfully, and that starts even before you enter the delivery room. Join me, Dr. Miles, and Lea, Lactation Consultant of SOS Lactation, to discuss 5 good reasons to have a lactation consultant when breastfeeding.
Update: This online event was completed on Facebook Live @drdevinmiles. We had a slight freeze in the video, so it was done in 2 parts. Here are the links to watch both videos:
