Breastfeeding Support with the Mediclinic Midwives

Today we’re joined by two incredible women who are often the quiet heroes behind the scenes of early motherhood — the breastfeeding and lactation coordinators from Mediclinic. Their work is all about supporting new mums through one of the most emotionally and physically intense parts of the postpartum journey: feeding your baby.Whether it’s navigating latch issues, milk supply worries, conflicting advice, or simply the emotional overwhelm of those early days, these coordinators are there to guide, reassure, and empower mothers — no matter how they choose to feed. In this episode, we’re diving into what really happens in those first few days after birth, busting some common breastfeeding myths, and sharing practical advice for anyone preparing for – or currently in – the newborn trenches.RESOURCES: La Leche League InternationalPRODUCTS:Hospital grade dual pump - https://www.spectrababy.ae/Pumping bra - https://amzn.to/3GvYdBhBreast feeding pillow - https://amzn.to/4lUkR5aFind more about Mediclinic Hospital - https://www.mediclinic.ae/en/corporate/home.htmlFind us on instagram @wearemothertongueBefore we dive in — a quick word from our friends at London Dairy Ice Cream.
