There is SO much information about breastfeeding out there, but there are also SO many myths. Today Katie and I are sharing some of our least favorite myths, because I think they can hurt your breastfeeding journey.
Today's guest is Katie Clark, The Breastfeeding Mama
Katie Clark is a proud mother of three little boys who happens to love all things breastfeeding. Through her own breastfeeding journeys, she has discovered the joy that comes from helping other mothers meet their breastfeeding goals. She is a Certified Lactation Educator, Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, and IBCLC-in-training and has run various online breastfeeding groups since 2015. She enjoys providing realistic and entertaining information about breastfeeding to help new parents make the best decisions for their family.
Katie offers virtual lactation consults and various online, on demand classes, including The Breastfeeding Mama Academy, which offers continuous support from pregnancy through weaning.
