  • Must-Know Truths for Pregnant Moms: How Birth Interventions Impact Breastfeeding and Bonding

    Send us a text

    Are you preparing for birth—or reflecting on the one you already had?
    This episode is for every mom who wants to protect her breastfeeding journey before it even begins.

    As a certified breastfeeding counselor and mom myself, I’ve seen it too often: interventions during birth that seem harmless can quietly sabotage bonding and breastfeeding—unless you know what to look out for.

    In this episode, I uncover:

    • How common birth interventions—like IV fluids, Pitocin, pain meds, and C-sections—can interfere with your baby’s instincts and your body’s hormones
    • Why the ā€œgolden hourā€ after birth is sacred—and how to make sure you don’t miss it
    • How birth affects your baby’s nervous system, gut, and even future health
    • Ā Why informed decisions, support, and advocacy matter more than ever
    • Ā Gentle, practical steps you can take now to protect your birth and breastfeeding journey

    This isn’t about fear—it’s about empowerment. Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, or just curious, this episode gives you the knowledge most moms only wish they had.

  • From Free Birth to Breastfeeding Advocate: My Story to Support Health-Conscious Moms

    Send us a text

    In this very first episode of Breastfeeding is Natural, I’m sharing my personal story and the journey that inspired this podcast. From my free birth experience to witnessing other moms struggle with breastfeeding, I’ve developed a deep passion for supporting health-conscious mothers like you.

    I’ll also share how being formula-fed as a baby—and nearly losing my life to a cow’s milk allergy—shaped my mission to bring breastfeeding back to the center of motherhood.

    This is the start of our journey together, and I can’t wait to support you every step of the way!

    For my German-speaking followers! šŸ‡©šŸ‡Ŗ In this episode, I mention Sarita from Darmarchitektur as well as Nina and Steffi from the Kompetenzzentrum Stillen. Make sure to check out their work! 😊
