Ensuring your baby gets plenty of the good stuff
They refer to breast milk as ‘liquid gold’ for a reason — it’s packed with nutrients and helps support your baby’s growth and development. But if you need a little help on your breastfeeding journey, you’ve come to the right place. From treating engorgement to increasing your breast milk supply, we’ve got all your breastfeeding questions covered.
In the first few days of your baby’s life, breast milk production is hormonally-driven. After birth and the delivery of the placenta, the hormone progesterone rapidly falls, leading to a surge in the hormone prolactin which drives milk production.
