We are starting 2022 off with a bang in the first Compatible You podcast for the year.
In today's episode I speak with registered nurse and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) Hannah MILSTEAD.
Hannah aims to bring awareness to the struggles women face on their breastfeeding journey and aims to inform and support women providing them with most up to date practices and guidelines.
I was so excited to speak to Hannah as her journey to break down the shame and stigma surrounding breast feeder resonates well with what Compatible You Training stands for.
In this episode Hannah talks about the role of a IBCLC and the common misconceptions which surround breast feeding including nipple pain and tenderness, sub-optimal feeding positions and breaking down the barrier for women to seek help for their breastfeeding struggles especially in country areas.
Hannah provides advice for new and soon to be mums and reminds women to cut themselves some slack whilst on this journey, after all you have given birth to a precious life and the need to be perfect and put together during this time is overrated.
