In this week's episode, Allie Badger speaks with Becky LaBombard, a certified lactation counselor and owner of The Upstate lactation Collective, about the importance of community support in lactation, the spectrum of lactation care, and the challenges new parents face with societal expectations versus biological norms. They discuss the dynamics of breastfeeding, the emotional aspects of weaning, and the significance of understanding one's own body and needs during the parenting journey. Becky emphasizes that every family is unique and encourages parents to seek support when needed. This is a must listen if you are pregnant, newly post-partum or supporting someone who is! Please reach out to Becky with any questions you may have or to get connected to the wonder community her and her team have built.
