It can be challenging, intense, emotional and it come sometimes hurt whilst you are both learning. 

Why does it hurt? Well it is all about how you position and attach your baby at the Breast.

If this is right it should feel ok and if it isn't quite right you will know. 

This podcast explores:

What is breastfeeding likely to be like in the early days.

What does it feel like?

If you experience pain, what is happening and why.

How to keep breastfeeding going whilst you mend yourself.

When and where to get support.

(P.S. Special guest appearance from my puppy Kipper at the end who had been missing in the garden unbeknown to me the whole time Anne and I were recording this episode.)

Coming home with your baby can be a daunting experience alongside the excitement.

 In this  podcast we talk about:

How and why we feel overwhelmed and how to cope in the early days.

Who and what can help get breastfeeding established.

We explore the questions we get asked regularly e.g what if I don't have enough milk?

What to do when breastfeeding hurts.

(This episode has been recorded on Zoom as Anne and I are both self isolating. Bear with us as the recording is a bit hit and miss! We are working on our tech knowledge but hopefully you enjoy the information and support and have a chuckle along the way.)

The antenatal period for most parents is often focussed largely on the safe birth of your little bundle and rightly so.

A a result it can often be hard to see beyond this point. However feeding your baby starts from birth and is a 24 hour project in the early days, weeks and months to follow.

This podcast is a round up of  tips to consider whilst you are pregnant that can help you prepare for breastfeeding and life with your new baby in those early days.

We invite you to explore how you and your partner feel about breastfeeding and look at how you can prepare your nest in practical terms.

Hi,

We hate long intros on podcasts so we thought we would do a little  introduction to us Anne Jeffery and Katie Ellis so we can avoid all that faff on our other episodes!

We will be inviting you to journey through our resources and help prepare your head and home for your special delivery. Exciting times ahead!

And if your little one is already here, you will know the early days can be ‘beautiful chaos.’  Our breastfeeding podcasts will be long enough to fit into a breastfeed. We will help you understand what is in the rainbow of normal and encouraging you to trust your instincts and ‘love what you do.’

PS – We don’t claim to know it all, so we will be sharing  plenty of links to sign post you to the latest research based information on our website at www.babywisdom.co.uk
