MamaMilk: Your Solution for Breastfeeding Challenges

Throughout pregnancy, you probably hear a lot about the benefits of breastfeeding. And while you will constantly hear about how it is a natural process that your body just knows how to do, those early feedings can be downright alarming. The fact is that breastfeeding can be deeply frustrating and sometimes even painful. There is a good chance you could use an expert to help you out, and I am here to help you find one! As a Vancouver family photographer, I get the chance to connect with tons of parents who have gone through this exact experience. Let me tell you why MamaMilk is going to be your new best friend!

About MamaMilk

3569 Commercial Street, Vancouver, BC V5N 4E8

MamaMilk is a lactation consultant practice that was started by Shahrzad Tayebi, or Shaz, for short. Before moving to Vancouver, Shaz was a midwife and breastfeeding instructor in Iran. When her own son was born with Down Syndrome, she began to look into Craniosacral Therapy to help him with some of his challenges. Because this was still unstudied in Iran, she moved over to Canada to start treatments. Along the way, she built up a team of experts who are just as passionate as she is. Today, this center is going to help you address any breastfeeding challenges and make sure you have assistance that actually works!

Services

MamaMilk is here to help you the second that you need it. This practice can provide assistance with building up breastfeeding confidence, learning the biological reflexes in newborns, milk production excess or low supply, using nipple shields, handling low infant weight gain, resolving tongue ties, and more. If you experience pain while nursing, they ask that you contact them right away so you can get immediate help. While they do offer office visits, most of their clients schedule home visits. During these sessions, they will spend 60-90 minutes evaluating a feeding before giving you a written plan for how to resolve any barriers. They will follow up via text message, or you can book a 30-minute follow-up 2-4 days after your appointment. These consultations are available both before and after your baby arrives.

These MamaMilk treatments can assist with conditions such as migraines, neck and back pain, fibromyalgia, scoliosis, post-surgical conditions, and more.
