11. Midwife to midwife, honest conversation about newborn breastfeeding issues, with Jenna from Ice Ice Booby

The Australian Breastfeeding Podcast

In this episode, Jenna - a Registered Midwife and myself have a candid and honest conversation about the roadblocks that new mothers can come up against when learning how to breastfeed their new baby. Jenna and I have both worked with new mothers in Australian maternity hospitals for many years. We discuss Caesarean Sections and how this can affect feeding in the early days, and what you can do about this. We discuss normal newborn behaviour, antenatal expressing, how frequent newborns like to feed, what to do if baby won't attach and much more. Listen in to gain an insight on how midwives candidly chat with each other about these issues! Jenna is the founder of Ice Ice Booby - an Australian company that produce specifically designed remedial gel-bead ice and heat packs to help new mums in the pregnancy, postnatal and breastfeeding period.
