A very good read. There is a difference between evidence-based information and opinion. However, when you're a new Mother or a mother with lots on her plate sometimes it can be confusing which is accurate!
If you ever have questions reach out to me!
Le pédiatre recommande le sevrage de l'allaitement parce que le lait maternel a perdu son efficacité. Le dentiste pour éviter que le bébé ait des caries. La belle-mère pour qu'il ne soit pas trop attaché. L'éducatrice recommande que le bébé s'adapte au plus vite à l'école. La collègue de travail pour que la fin du congé de maternité soit plus facile pour la maman. La nutritionniste recommande le sevrage pour que le bébé mange mieux. Le professionnel de n'importe quelle spécialité médicale pour pouvoir prescrire un traitement pour la mère. Le mari pour que sa femme ne se plaigne plus de fatigue. La consultante en sommeil recommande le sevrage pour que le bébé dorme toute la nuit. L'orthophoniste pour que l'enfant commence à parler plus rapidement. La voisine parce qu'elle trouve ça moche et pas normal.
Savez-vous ce que ces recommandations ont en commun ? Toutes ont besoin d'une preuve scientifique solide qui les justifie. Elles ne sont qu'une opinion personnelle ou professionnelle soutenue sur des arguments douteux. Elles ne sont qu'un échantillon de l'ignorance et des préjugés autour de l'allaitement. Ce sont quelques-uns des obstacles que nous devons affronter pour que l'allaitement soit possible.
Pour la société en général, il est beaucoup plus confortable de jeter la faute de la fatigue maternelle sur la demande du bébé que de fournir le soutien nécessaire pour que cette mère puisse accomplir la tâche difficile de créer un être humain sain à tous les niveaux.
Tant que notre culture continuera à considérer l'allaitement comme la racine de tous les maux de la mère et le sevrage comme la solution idéale de tous leurs problèmes, nous continuerons de nous écarter de notre essence et de transformer notre espèce.
La décision du sevrage appartient exclusivement à la mère et au bébé, et non au médecin ou la société. Arrêtons de vendre de l'illusion aux mères fatiguées, car l'allaitement est rarement le vrai problème et le sevrage ne garantit rien. Les mères ont avant tout besoin d'un soutien efficace.

Hello spring!
Anchor & Oak is now offering walk and talk sessions for individual psychotherapy.
Access to childcare can be a huge barrier for parents to access therapy. Taking babe on a stroller walk for session might be a flexible way to access services.
Please reach out via email at [email protected]
This has been shared a few times and I think it's so beautiful.
This moment, while so natural, was a huge step for women and lactation. ❤️
A designation to add to the credentials!
This comes with a HUGE thank you to all my clients who keep supporting me, referring me and helping me to learn and grow through supporting you in your journey!
OFFICIAL CBS!!!

I NOW HAVE PRENATAL PACKAGES!!! if you know anyone expecting in the new year this is a GREAT gift idea for them for Christmas. In these packages we discuss personal lactation goals, develop a plan for after delivery and after baby comes home!

Jennifer Taun Counselling and Consulting is an amazing perinatal mental health provider and a close partner of Beautifully Bonded Breastfeeding/Lactation Support I am proud to share her recognition of her accomplishments.

Now this is cute!
Registration is now open!
** Important Announcement **
Hey Beautiful People,
I am excited to say I am slowly integrating in person appointment times back into my calendar. As I continue my clinical supervision and exam writing my availability for in-person appointments are limited and the number of clients I can take on at a time is also limited.
I promise I will do my best to support as many people as require my help. If you inquiries can be addressed via a virtual appointment I will suggest that as a first step as those are more easily facilitated in my schedule. However, this is not always possible and assessments do need to be done in person at times and in those situations I am doing my best to fit them in where I can.
Thank you all once again for the support and trust in your lactation journey and I look forward to supporting you reach your goals.

A great night for New and Expecting parents to have a chance to prep and ask questions to many of North Bay's leading perinatal care providers and infant care providers.
Message My Village Doula Collective or Growing Together Doula Services or any of the other practitioners on the attendee list to get yourself registered.
As always I also provide lactation preparation and postpartum lactation supports for all stages of lactation. You can reach out to me for questions anytime. ♥️
🌟🌻MOM ALERT. These lovely ladies are hosting a Mom's night in the studio on October 11th! They've asked me to do some prenatal yoga at their event (to which I gladly accepted) and thought I'd let all my new and expecting moms know in our community! It's a free event and a wonderful opportunity to learn some things and ask some questions! PLUS I'll be officially launching my pre-natal classes and if you attend this free moms night you just might get a discount on them! 💗
I want to say thank you to all of my supporters and clients. Without you, I wouldn't be able to continue this passion for helping my community and continue to support families in North Bay & Area.

I will continue to offer my virtual support to any parents looking for ongoing and daily access to professional and evidence-based lactation advice.
I know this is the last thing I want to be doing or the community needs at this time but it is unfortunately my only choice.
Happy Black Breastfeeding Week.
As I aim to be inclusive and strive to create equitable Lactation Supports, I want to acknowledge the barriers that many underserved and underrepresented people experience.
I recognize my privilege in not experiencing the racism and barriers the black community faces in this and many support services.
I pledge to be an inclusive, supportive and accessible Lactation Support who will commit to educating myself and being open to learning and breaking down barriers.
Know Better DO BETTER!

People ask me all the time why I choose to sell and support Baby Beluga as a business. Not only are there ENORMOUS benefits to baby wearing during your lactation journey but Beluga Baby is a Canadian made company that uses sustainable, breathable and extremely soft bamboo fabric to make their wraps. ✨They are extremely easy to put on ✨Machine washable ✨ Amazing for Newborn to 25lbs (p.s. my daughter was 25 lbs until she was 2) long wearing weight capacity ✨ Affordable at less than $90.00 per wrap ❤️ And check it out I'm completely skin to skin with my babe and completely covered making it perfect to sneak in skin to skin in a busy day! Even with a summer baby. Shout out to my newest model our 5 day old son Santino. Who by the way LOVES his Beluga Baby Wrap. I choose to retail these products because I USE these products. If you or someone you know is expecting, has a babe or would like to know more about baby wearing with the Beluga Wraps contact me anytime! @belugababy #babywearing #lactationsupport #attachmentparenting #handsfree #momoftwo #breastfeedingsupport #newborn #baby #parenting
