Lactation Counselling Services
"A newborn has only 3 demands. They are warmth in the arms of its mother, food from her breasts, and security in the knowledge of her presence. Breastfeeding satisfies all three."
❓ Why is breastfeeding important?
🤱 Breastfeeding benefits both mother and baby:
- Strengthens baby's immunity
- Reduces risk of infections, allergies, obesity
- Supports emotional bonding
- Promotes healthy weight for mothers
- Reduces risk of postpartum depression and certain cancers in mothers
According to the Indian Academy of Pediatrics (IAP) and American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP):
- Exclusive breastfeeding is recommended for the first 6 months of life.
- Continued breastfeeding is advised along with complementary foods up to 2 years and beyond.
❓ What challenges do new mothers face while breastfeeding?
Common concerns include:
- Painful latching
- Cracked nipples
- Low milk supply
- Engorgement or blocked ducts
- Baby refusing to breastfeed
- Breastfeeding after C-section or preterm delivery
At Dr. Navya's Children Clinic, we offer compassionate, evidence-based solutions to each of these challenges.
❓ Why lactation counselling is important?
Lactation counselling is a professional service that supports mothers in establishing and maintaining successful breastfeeding.
It includes expert guidance on latching, milk supply, positioning, feeding patterns, and overcoming common breastfeeding challenges.
Breastfeeding is natural—but not always easy. With the right support, it becomes a confident and joyful experience.
❓ When should I seek lactation counselling?
You can benefit from prenatal to postnatal counselling:
- Before delivery: To prepare for breastfeeding and learn what to expect
- Immediately after birth: For guidance on latching, positioning, and early feeding cues
- Any time after: If you experience pain, poor weight gain in baby, or feeding concerns
❓ Can I breastfeed if I had a C-section or low milk supply?
Yes. Most mothers can breastfeed successfully with the right support—even after cesarean delivery or perceived low supply. We help you assess and improve milk production with natural techniques, frequent feeds, and, if needed, medical advice.
