My Own Breastfeeding Journey: Episode 316

10/25/22 • 60 min

Welcome to a special episode of our podcast, a little different than most. Actually, it may be my most vulnerable episode ever. The tables are turned, and you’ll hear me, Lisa Paladino, being interviewed by Lo Nigrosh about my personal experiences with birth and breastfeeding. If you’ve ever wondered how I got from someone born into, and working in, a medicalized and bottle feeding family and culture, to being an advocate for natural birth and breastfeeding, please listen.

Lo Nigrosh was featured on Episode 303 of the Tongue Tie Experts Podcast discussing overcoming breastfeeding pain. The episode that you’ll hear today is from her own podcast, the Milk Making Minutes.

Special thank you to Lo for lending me this episode, for being such an advocate, and for allowing me the time and space to share more about my journey. Let me know your thoughts.

Breast Milk Supply - Is baby getting enough milk? Episode 317

Did you know that one of the most common reasons that moms stop breastfeeding is fear of not having enough milk?

How do we know if a baby is getting enough milk?

In this special encore episode, you will learn how much milk a baby actually needs, how we know there is enough, myths about milk supply, and signals that may indicate when further help is needed.

This information is for parents and for professionals who care for breastfeeding parents. Even if you are not a lactation consultant, it is vital for you to be able to either reassure your patients, give them simple ways to ensure adequate milk transfer, or refer them for expert lactation care.

I’ve included a list of risk factors to be aware of, simple interventions if low milk supply is suspected, and the role of the IBCLC in milk supply assessment and treatment.
