What do we do?
A good breastfeeding/chestfeeding relationship is most easily achieved when it is off to a good start. Issues that are addressed early may help to allay problems that can occur later on. We find that if a parent is supported around day 2-4 after the birth, this can encourage feeding in the right direction.

Evidence-Based Information and Support
Postpartum doulas are trained to understand what new babies – and new mothers – truly need. The doula helps with soothing techniques, offers breastfeeding or bottle feeding support, and explains normal newborn behavior.
Practical Support
It’s all hands on deck with a new baby, and postpartum doulas can help the days go by more smoothly by helping with the baby’s laundry, doing the dishes or preparing simple, nourishing meals.
Partner and Sibling Support
A new baby means transition for everyone, including parents, grandparents and little brothers and sisters. Postpartum doulas understand what everyone needs, and part of their role is to help the entire family adjust and settle in.
