Breastfeeding is something very natural, but that does not mean it always works perfectly from the very beginning. Many new parents experience a mix of joy, uncertainty and physical changes during the first days after birth. In this sensitive phase I support you as a midwife in Rostock with calmness, experience and an understanding of what your family needs right now.
Even though I am not present in the delivery room, I am there for you after the birth. And if you feel unsure or have questions while you are still in the hospital you can always reach out to me. Together we will find solutions that feel right for you and your baby.
⭐ Why breastfeeding problems are so common
During my home visits in the postpartum period in Rostock I often see how stressful it can be when breastfeeding does not go as expected.
There are many possible reasons for this:
Milk coming in later than expected
Painful nipples
A milk flow that is too strong or too weak
Challenges with latching
Uncertainty about the best breastfeeding position
A very hungry or very sleepy baby
All of this is completely normal and it can be treated very well.
⭐ How I support you during the postpartum period
During the postpartum period I look closely at what you and your baby need. Breastfeeding is very individual which is why I take my time to understand the full situation.
1. We find the right breastfeeding position together
A small change in position can already make a big difference. I make sure your baby latches deeply and that you are sitting or lying comfortably.
2. I help you understand your baby better
Babies sometimes show very subtle hunger cues. When we learn to recognize them breastfeeding becomes calmer and less stressful.
3. We relieve pain and protect your nipples
Simple measures are often enough such as warmth proper care and small adjustments in how you latch your baby.
4. I support you if you have too much or too little milk
Whether relieving pressure gently expressing or stimulating milk production we choose only what is necessary and what suits you.
⭐ You are not alone, breastfeeding problems can be solved
Breastfeeding problems do not mean you are doing anything wrong. They simply show that you and your baby are still getting to know each other. This is exactly what I support you with, with calmness empathy and plenty of experience.
If you need support with breastfeeding in Rostock feel free to contact me. Together we will find a way that suits you.
Whenever you have something on your mind, I am happy to be by your side. For your questions, thoughts, and all the little moments in between, I am just a phone call away. I look forward to accompanying you with warmth and expertise.
Your midwife, Christine Schuhr 💗
