In this episode, we’re joined by holistic lactation consultant Joelleen Winduss Paye, who shares her expert advice on breastfeeding. Drawing on her experience as a lactation consultant, midwife and naturopath, Joelleen provides practical tips for preparing to breastfeed before your baby is born, dispels common misconceptions about breastfeeding, and explains how to tell if your baby is getting enough milk. We also answer listener questions about weaning, tandem feeding, managing mastitis, and maintaining milk supply while returning to work or being separated from your baby. Whether you're a new parent or an experienced one, this episode is filled with practical tips and insights to support you on your breastfeeding journey. We also discussed this gorgeous episode of midwife Beth Ryan's Growing podcast, E25: Bye-bye boob - Our experience with weaning. I highly recommend for anyone who's currently going through the process of breastfeeding or thinking about doing so.
