Lactational counselling is an essential support service designed to guide new mothers through the physical and emotional journey of breastfeeding. At our hospital, we offer compassionate, evidence-based lactation support to ensure mothers feel confident, informed, and empowered to nourish their babies effectively. Whether you are a first-time mother or seeking guidance after previous breastfeeding challenges, our trained lactation experts provide personalized assistance tailored to your needs.
Our counselling begins with helping mothers understand the fundamentals of breastfeeding. This includes recognizing hunger cues, ensuring proper latch techniques, and learning comfortable feeding positions. Mothers often experience uncertainty during the initial days, and our specialists offer continuous guidance to help them adapt smoothly. Through hands-on demonstrations and one-on-one sessions, we help create a strong breastfeeding foundation that supports both the mother and the child.
Breastfeeding can sometimes come with concerns such as sore nipples, engorgement, low milk supply, or difficulties with baby’s latch. Our lactation consultants assess each situation with care and provide practical techniques to overcome these challenges. They also offer strategies for maintaining milk supply, expressing breast milk safely, and managing feeding schedules for working mothers. The goal is to ensure that breastfeeding becomes a comfortable and stress-free experience.
A mother’s emotional well-being plays a crucial role in her breastfeeding journey. Our counselling sessions emphasize reassurance, encouragement, and realistic guidance. Mothers receive advice on nutrition, hydration, and self-care practices that support healthy lactation. We also help them understand how breastfeeding strengthens the mother-child bond, boosts immunity, and supports long-term health for the baby.
Every mother’s journey is unique. For mothers with premature babies, twins, special medical conditions, or those transitioning from formula to breastfeeding, we provide customized plans tailored to their circumstances. Our counsellors work closely with pediatricians to ensure babies receive adequate nutrition while supporting mothers in achieving their feeding goals.
Breastfeeding support doesn’t end with a single session. We provide ongoing follow-up, teleconsultations, and guidance as the baby grows. Mothers can return anytime for additional help, ensuring they always have a trusted support system by their side.
