Ep 8: What Chimpanzees Ask Us About Suck and Body Mechanics

Join Adina &amp; Ellen as we discuss our philosophy of Body-Led Breastfeeding, a lactation lense that respects the baby's body as the #1 clue in understanding suck function and dysfunction. 


We'll chat about infant body alignment, suck mechanics, the wisdom of the human body, and all around lactation theory and geekery. 


We love to hear from you! Send us an email with any thoughts, reactions, or contributions to bodyledbreastfeeding@gmail.com or suggest a topic for a future episode!
