Lactation Support
Lactation support refers to assistance provided to breastfeeding mothers to help them successfully nurse their infants. This support can come from various sources, including healthcare professionals, lactation consultants, and support groups. It often includes guidance on proper breastfeeding techniques, addressing common challenges, and ensuring the mother and baby are both comfortable during the process.
Additionally, lactation support may involve education about the benefits of breastfeeding, information on maintaining milk supply, and resources for managing any difficulties that arise. This support aims to promote a positive breastfeeding experience and improve maternal and infant health outcomes.
