Breastfeeding a child is offering him a priceless gift for life, of nutritional, physical and emotional value, crucial for the health of both mother and baby.
This service is dedicated to supporting mothers who have chosen to breastfeed their child but, for some reason, feel insecure or are faced with some challenges.
We have midwifes, WHO/UNICEF breastfeeding counsellors at your disposal, with the availability, professionalism, experience and motivation needed to support breastfeeding.
These are the most common reasons to seek breastfeeding support at UTERUS:
- the need for support to ensure proper breastfeeding technique and effective latching
- questions related to breastfeeding (milk production and release, feeding during breastfeeding…)
- challenges related with breastfeeding: pain while breastfeeding, cracked or macerated nipples, difficulty for the baby to breastfeed directly from the breast (difficulty in latching, use of artificial nipples…), baby who does not gain weight, among others.
If you need breastfeeding support, don’t hesitate to contact us – the sooner you ask for our support, the more effective our intervention will be.
Consultations can take place at UTERUS facilities, at home or digitally.
