I chatted with certified breastfeeding counsellor and birth educator Luka Zigic on the need for breastfeeding/chestfeeding education and support.
We discuss:
šŸ’š the current gaps in care when we become parents
šŸ’š why we need to be educated on the ways our bodies change from pregnancy to postpartum, including the stages of lactation
šŸ’š the loss of ancestral knowledge and community support for breastfeeding
šŸ’š why it's important to understand chestfeeding before giving birth
šŸ’š the physical and mental benefits of breastfeeding for parents
And more! Thanks for tuning in!
