Two Saturdays ago, I attended a talk at the Tiny Tapir bungalow off Jalan Ampang. It was conducted by Gina, a mother of four herself, who is able to share her passion from her experiences and research. You can find her here.

While we always believe that all mothers should know how to breastfeed their young, it is actually not true and many times, breastfeeding fails because mothers are not properly informed.

This is where Gina and her talk will come in as it covers topics like …

  • Why Breastfed is Best fed
  • How to Get Started the Right Way!
  • How Milk Gets from Breast to Baby
  • Correct Positioning and Holding of baby
  • Correct Latch-On (it should not be painful!)
  • Avoid Breastfeeding Common Problems – Engorgement, Sore Nipples etc
  • How to Increase Your Milk Supply
  • How to know if your baby is getting enough milk
  • How to breastfeed your Baby till his/her 1st birthday..
  • Breastfeeding for Working Moms
  • Daddy and the breastfed Baby
  • Breastfeeding Myths debunked!

    • I attended this session to relate my breastfeeding experience with my 2 kids and despite thinking that I am a veteran in this area, I still learnt a thing or two from her, like how our breast milk is different between the breasts or how the breast is likened to a factory and all its different parts!

    My take on this – Definitely must go for all parents, whether you are first time or not!

    Breast is best, and we all need all the help we can get on this!
