Description

In honor of National Breastfeeding Month Lauren & I thought there was no better guest than a International Board Certified Lactation Consultant.

How lucky are we that I (Amanda) have one in my family? One of my favorite people in the world, my cousin Alana Dambrot, launched her business, Embrace Lactation, after struggling on her own breastfeeding journey with her first daughter. She decided to take her experience, education and know-how and turn it into a business where she has the honor of helping others. Alana is a  wife, mother and business owner who inspires us all by showing up and supporting her clients everyday.

We touch on: 

• What an IBCLC is and how they can help
• Some common misconceptions to be aware of
• How these professionals can be a resource whether or not you plan to use breastmilk 
• Did you know they are COVERED BY INSURANCE?!
  
  Whether you're a soon-to-be mama, soon-to-be papa, partner, caregiver or simply curious about the world of breastfeeding you will absolutely LOVE her. (Just like we do!)
