This lecture brings together the postpartum period and breastfeeding. In the postpartum period, a woman experiences many changes, both physically and emotionally. It is a time full of new experiences, adaptation, and recovery. In the lecture, our midwife Kärt Laanejärv talks about the changes that take place after childbirth and how to prepare yourself for them and support yourself while experiencing the changes. In addition, Kärt talks about breastfeeding, skin-to-skin contact, and how to support your own breastfeeding journey. From the lecture, you will get an overview of possible problems related to breastfeeding and how and where to get help if problems occur.

Currently, this lecture is only available in Estonian, however, you can cover the topics in English with our midwife via our private family school appointment here.
