Breastfeeding is amazing, but I want to be honest that there can be issues and how you troubleshoot them both before delivery and after.
Today's guest is Katie Clark from The Breastfeeding Mama and Clarks Condensed (you can also find her as The Breastfeeding Mama on Tiktok and Instagram). She has both paid "On Demand" Breastfeeding classes, and if you're wanting to check her out first -- be sure to grab her free course!
This episode is inspired by my post on breastfeeding not working (which is a GREAT resource). << In that post I talk all about how to tell breastfeeding isn't working and what to do (as well as some honest info on how I felt after it didn't work for me).
Be sure to grab my supply tips:
Big Thanks to our sponsor The Online Prenatal Class for Couples. If you're looking to get prepared for your delivery it has helped thousands of moms. I love what Chelsea had to say:
I really appreciated the way this class was taught! It covered everything I wanted to know in a friendly and down-to-earth way. I now feel more prepared and genuinely excited for the birth of my first baby!
