Breastfeeding advice
Our midwives/breastfeeding consultants offer you professional advice and empathetic support for all topics and questions that arise during the entire “breastfeeding journey” – including support when weaning. The following points can be discussed:
- Positioning
- Pain Management and Prevention
- Expressing and storing breast milk
- Behavior of the baby at the breast
- Delayed weight gain and reflux
- Supplementary feeding while continuing the breastfeeding relationship
- resumption of professional activity
- introduction of solid food
- Questions about medications or medical procedures while breastfeeding
If you have difficulties breastfeeding because attachment is not working so well or your little one is very good at attaching on one side and has difficulty on the other, we always recommend osteopathic treatment. Babies are often unable to move their various head joints freely after birth. Osteopathy can help wonderfully with its gentle but profound treatment.
The duration of a meeting is about 60 minutes. In this way, the lactation consultant can observe a breastfeeding meal and ensure in-depth, holistic treatment of the breastfeeding problems.
The first three breastfeeding consultations are covered by basic insurance.
We look forward to getting to know you and your little one very soon.
