In this episode of Her Guide, we sit down with Shona Cassels, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, to talk all things breastfeeding your newborn. Together, we explore what to expect in those early days - from understanding your baby's cues and navigating cluster feeding to building confidence at the breast and managing your milk supply. Shona also shares practical advice for when things don't go as planned - whether that's discomfort, low supply, or simply uncertainty about what's normal. Her calm, evidence-based approach offers reassurance and encouragement for every parent in those first precious weeks.
