Hey mama! In this episode, I'm getting raw and real about my breastfeeding journey with my 4-month-old Joelle. From confidently telling my nurse "I took a course!" to crying on the way home from our lactation consultant, I'm sharing it all. If you're wondering about breastfeeding with implants, struggling with latching, considering mixed feeding, or navigating the emotional rollercoaster of feeding your baby - this episode is for you.
I dive deep into:
- My experience breastfeeding and pumping with breast implants
- The reality of triple feeding (and why it worked for us)
- What actually helped with milk supply
- How we handled latching struggles
- The emotional journey of changing feeding plans
- Working with lactation consultants (including the one who made me cry!)
- Tips for pumping success
- Finding peace with mixed feeding
Whether you're exclusively breastfeeding, pumping, formula feeding, or somewhere in between, I hope this episode helps you feel less alone in your journey. Remember, fed is best, and you're doing amazing, mama!
