Breast Care after Infant Loss

Service Description

Providing professional, gentle support to care for your breasts after infant loss. During this consult, we will discuss lactation management, comfort strategies and helping your body to recover and heal. Many women will experience milk production after the loss of a baby. This can occur regardless of whether you have breastfeed prior. It is normal to feel a wide spectrum of emotions about producing breastmilk at this time. Some mothers may seek advice to suppress ('dry up') milk production as quickly or as gently as possible. Others may wish to collect some breastmilk for a keepsake or to donate to another family. We will help guide you through these processes depending on your needs and preferences. This service is offered at a discounted rate, to support families and minimise financial burden during this time.
