At your consultation, I will address any ongoing Breastfeeding concerns and aim to give assistance to make your Breastfeeding more relaxed and comfortable. I will tailor the appointment to suit your baby’s feeding time. Test weighing can help check baby’s transfer of milk, and we can put a plan in place at the end of the feed.

We will discuss follow-up as part of your plan and monitor ongoing need for change as required.
