Intuitive Breastfeeding Show

Pregnancy Place Radio - Episode 6 - Biologically Hardwired for Breastfeeding

Karen and I are having such fun bringing you our heart and soul through education. Our show today was inspired from my Intuitive Breastfeeding class at New Seasons. We talked about how our bodies are hardwired to breastfeed and how our culture either supports or can hinder the process.


In Addition to the Show, here are a few links we would like you to know about:

A video of The Breast Crawl
A great video to see Hunger Cues

Some of our "Take Homes" for the show were:

  • If nursing is hard, and you want to stop, you might an lactation consultant.
  • It might take some time for you to feel like it is easy.
  • Consider independent lactation support as an additional resource to the Hospital-based consultant.
  • Postpartum Doulas and Support groups are helpful when the extended support leave.

Tune in Tuesdays at Noon-Pacific for the next Episode of The Pregnancy Place!
