Tips for preparing for a meeting with a consultant
Write down all the questions you have about BF: from causes of agalactia and breastfeeding principles to diet or weaning. Do not hesitate to ask them. This will make the consultation more effective and productive.
The consultant may ask to examine your breasts to assess the condition of the nipples and detect possible problems such as cracks or milk stasis. This is important for giving accurate recommendations.
Breastfeeding is not only a physical process but also an emotional connection between mother and child. It is important to be open and trusting with the specialist to receive psychological support.
If you see a consultant in the first days after birth, you need to bring your baby. The consultant can observe the feeding process, teach you and your baby how to establish it properly, and make necessary adjustments.
