She gives what she calls pockets of lactation education as a lactation consultant at Essentia Health.
Mom and Baby are learning together when it comes to lactation.
Christofferson and I cover a LOT of ground when we talk about feeding your infant.
From the trends to the education of nursing and feeding a newborn.
She gets vulnerable and real with her own journey with her two oldest
kids and now expecting a new baby. How 'silly' she felt through the struggle
of trying to breastfeed her oldest when she was a nurse. Yet,
with education and resources feeling confident and growing through her personal story.
And how that helped shaped her to be the compassionate lactation educator she is.
It's a journey nearly every new mom can relate too.
We also cover the exciting ways things are changing to be more inclusive,
and less judgmental when it comes to the "how" you are able to feed your
babies. She gets candid about what she calls "annoyingly important" to do
after baby's first few hours here. Less rules and more natural lactation
plus be as prepared as you can be, are some of her words to live by.
