Breastfeeding advice from the midwife

Breastfeeding is often a wonderful experience—but sometimes also a challenge. I will accompany you through your individual breastfeeding situation, listening and supporting you with advice, practical tips, and time to answer your questions.

Topics of breastfeeding counseling can include:

  • Preparing for breastfeeding during pregnancy

  • Starting breastfeeding after birth

  • Help with pain while breastfeeding, sore nipples, milk congestion or mastitis

  • Support with too little or too much milk

  • Questions about bottle or formula milk

  • Breastfeeding and returning to work

  • Support during weaning

As a midwife, I have in-depth knowledge of breastfeeding and offer you personalized, everyday support. For complex breastfeeding issues or when questions remain unresolved, we will discuss whether a specialized breastfeeding and lactation consultant (IBCLC) should be consulted.

Cost coverage

The health insurance company covers three breastfeeding consultations per birth – regardless of the postpartum period. Breastfeeding consultations can take place as part of postpartum care – or later, depending on your needs.
