You got fourteen different answers.
What you actually need is an expert. Right now. Not next Thursday.
You're exhausted. You don't need a 45-minute appointment in three weeks. You don't need another forum thread. You need someone who knows, who answers you personally, with your baby's specific situation, in the app that's already open on your phone.
For £12 a month, a certified IBCLC answers your questions personally inside a WhatsApp group of mums going through the same thing. Ask her anything. She answers with everything that question deserves.
Next group launches early June. Limited spots.

Come to the workshop first.
‘Fed with Confidence’ is a free one-hour live session covering everything most mums wish they'd known before their baby arrived. The most common feeding struggles, the questions nobody answers properly, and a live Q&A so you can ask exactly what's on your mind.
Bring your partner. Seriously. The more they understand, the easier this gets for both of you.
Spaces are limited and they go fast.
📣 Free to attend. No card required.
