Скачать или смотреть Supporting the Feeding Journey: A Whole-Family Approach Featuring Bellflower Lactation

In this conversation, Dr. Madeline of Forward Spine Center sits down with Aemelia of Bellflower Lactation, a pediatric nurse practitioner and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), to talk about what feeding support really looks like in the early postpartum period.

Aemelia shares her unique perspective caring for both mother and baby as a dyad, drawing from her clinical background and her lived experience as a mother of three, including twins. Together, they explore why feeding can feel so overwhelming in the first weeks after birth, how stress, sleep deprivation, and body tension impact breastfeeding, and why pain, latch issues, and weight concerns are signs it’s okay to ask for help.

The conversation also dives into common breastfeeding myths, tongue ties and oral function, the importance of partner support, and why mental health should always come before feeding method. Whether you’re expecting, newly postpartum, or supporting a growing family, this discussion offers compassionate insight and practical guidance rooted in whole-family care.
