Today we chat with Tiffani, an international board certified lactation consultant and the owner of The Breast Choice Lactation. Hear about the struggles and triumphs of her personal journey with breastfeeding, which led to her dedication in helping others navigate their own unique paths.

Navigating through breastfeeding can be a challenging journey, filled with questions and uncertainties. When is discomfort normal and when does it warrant seeking professional help? How can partners lend their support? Tiffany gives us a wealth of practical advice and tips to answer these crucial questions. But what's more, she tackles the often-overlooked element - the intersection of mental health and breastfeeding. Ensuring a mother's mental well-being is as vital as the physical aspect of breastfeeding. She guides us on different support methods that can be employed, including reducing the number of milk removals, seeking out therapists, and the sometimes necessary choice of discontinuing breastfeeding.

Choosing how to feed your baby isn’t a one-size-fits-all decision. Tiffany touches on the multitude of formulas available in the market, shedding light on how to find the right one for your little one. Tiffany also differentiates between biological norms and societal expectations, stressing the importance of finding a supportive community for your breastfeeding journey. We wrap up with a note of caution on the use of Fenugreek as a supplement for breastfeeding mothers. This episode is full of wisdom, insights and practical help for breastfeeding moms and their partners. Join us and empower yourself with the knowledge to make informed decisions that best suit your unique situation.
