56 | Pregnancy, Birth, and Breastfeeding Advocacy with Kiera Walsh from the Birth Advocacy Podcast

Self Advocacy is the key to an empowering pregnancy, birth experience, and breastfeeding experience. But what does self advocacy look like? What are the struggles pregnant moms face when they create their birth plans and breastfeeding plans?  Kiera Walsh from the Birth Advocacy Podcast joins Jaimie Zaki IBCLC on today's episode of the Breastfeeding with Confidence Podcast to discuss their personal birth stories, professional experiences with protecting the birth space and postpartum advocacy, and navigating breastfeeding.  The truth is, pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding are not separate events and are deeply connected. You must prepare for breastfeeding as thoroughly as you'd prepare for birth.  Learn how to say good bye to being a "good patient" and how you can unleash your fierce inner MamaBear to cultivate a supportive, team like approach to your birth and breastfeeding experience.  Have a healthier postpartum by preparing in pregnancy.  Want more support?  Get your breastfeeding questions answered with Jaimie Zaki by booking a consultation here.  Check out the Breastfeeding Resource Library mentioned in this episode here (Use code PODCAST50 to save!)  Check out the Birth Advocacy Podcast here!
