FEEDING

I am an experienced Midwife and Health Visitor who can support both you and your baby with positioning and attachment issues including;

​

• Rapid weight loss or slow weight gain plus increased weight gain over a short period of time

• Painful feeds

• Low milk supply

• Oversupply of milk (engorgement)

• Prolonged jaundice

• Colic

• Dribbling on the bottle

• Clicking sounds when feeding on the breast or bottle 

• Fussing at the breast or bottle

• Feeds that are either too long or short

• Coughing/spluttering/gagging at the breast or bottle

​

Some mothers and babies may have only one of these symptoms, whilst others may experience several symptoms which can change over a period of time. Every case is different and my approach is tailored to your specific needs and challenges. Some babies may also feed without experiencing any of the above symptoms at all.

​

Feeding assessments will be carried out and supported as part of the tongue tie assessment and you will be provided with a full care plan including advice and strategies you can implement at home.
