Preparing to Breastfeed Before Baby Arrives
Most parents spend months preparing for birth—but feeding often gets pushed to the side until baby is already here. That’s when the stress kicks in. By learning what to expect ahead of time, you give yourself and your baby a stronger start.
In this one-on-one prenatal session, we focus on helping you feel confident and informed before your feeding journey begins. We’ll cover the basics of how milk production works, what those first feeds look like, and how to support your supply from the very beginning. You’ll also learn how to recognize a deep and effective latch, how to know if your baby is getting enough, and what to expect in the first 24–72 hours.
Whether your goal is to exclusively breastfeed, combination feeding, or you just want to be ready for whatever comes, this session is a safe place to ask questions and explore your options. We can also talk through your past experiences, or any anxieties you may have about feeding.
By the end of our time together, you’ll walk away with knowledge, a clear plan, and the reassurance that you don’t have to figure this out alone. You’ll also know exactly when and how to get help if things feel off—so you’re not scrambling in the moment.
