Like many first time Mums I was so focused on the birth of my baby that I completely overlooked breastfeeding. I highly recommend the Australian Breastfeeding classes which provide the most up-to-date research based information on breastfeeding. It’s difficult as a new parent when you are overwhelmed and are receiving conflicting advice. The classes are practical and informative so you will be confident in looking after your new baby.

The Australian Breastfeeding Association is running a Breastfeeding Education Class on Saturday the 14th March at Coffs Harbour Regional Botanic Gardens from 9:30am to 1:30pm. For more information and to register  go to https://www.breastfeeding.asn.au/classes

The best approach to preparing for a new baby is to surround yourself with supportive health professionals  who are going to listen to your concerns and respect your wishes. As a naturopath and nutritionist I can provide you with personalised nutritional and herbal medicine advice during pregnancy, recovery and breastfeeding.
