Breastfeeding Support
Breastfeeding is a mother’s first challenge after giving birth. Providing adequate support and encouragement through the critical first weeks is vitally important to building a successful bond. Consider MotherTree doulas to be part of the professional support that can help bridge the gap from birth site to home. We provide home consultations, phone support and resources. Yes, we look forward to that 4 am call because we know it’s important!
Mother’s Milk
Nature, in it’s perfection, has designed a woman’s Mother’s Milk to the special order of the needs of both mother and child. Breastfeeding is not only the best nutrition for your child but it provides a closeness that cannot be duplicated. Breastfeeding also protects the mother in many other ways including reducing the risk of breast cancers and osteoporosis, also there is a reduced risk of hemorrhage after childbirth, weight loss is easier for many mothers who breastfeed, and hormones that reduce stress and help families bond. Breastfeeding for as long as your child wants to is probably THE most important thing you can do for the health and well-being of your child after birth.
