Week-by-Week Suggestions

WEEK 0-1

I am contactable at every stage of your feeding journey for the 6 week period following your baby's tongue-tie division. This is called 'IBCLC in your pocket!'.

Over the next few weeks you are encouraged to access these pages so that you know what to expect, and at which point. Of course, there are always exceptions and no two feeding journeys are the same. Your journey is very bespoke. Influencing factors to their feeding efficiency include gestation at birth, medical health, ill health, home distractions, teething, injections, developmental/growth leaps and type of birth-alongside the current tone and strength of their tongue which will improve at different rates.

Below is the current weeks suggested & generalised guidance to allow you the opportunity to understand what to 'expect', in the hope it is reassuring.

There are many 'variations of normal', so you are actively encouraged to contact me directly with any queries, questions or concerns-or just for an update chat!

Week 1:

⭐️

As discussed at your appointment, I will support you remotely through text/email communications for upto 6 weeks in what I call “IBCLC in my pocket!”

An IBCLC is the gold standard level in infant feeding regardless of the feeding method of choice.

During these 6 weeks, although I do make the initial contact, please do contact me as often as you need to for queries, questions or concerns you may have-it’s what I’m here for! 😊

If after 6 weeks you would like further support, a reassessment or a face2face follow-up evaluation; this can be purchased through my website in the same way you did for this one. A re-division is also a possibility but as you know the risk is <4% so please don’t panic about that one just yet-& there would be no need to redo the questionnaire 🙈!

NOW is the perfect time to work on your little ones body tensions, whether you choose to use home-based measures for this or research into professional support for it-head over to my 'body-therapies' page for further information and techniques (link below).

There is also my Facebook peer support group which houses lots of free support, articles and videos-which you may have joined already, but if not the link is:

https://www.facebook.com/groups/219881955258950/.

There is also my weekly FREE access, infant feeding support group held every Wednesday. No booking necessary; it is a drop-in style session and is there to support you and other families with any infant feeding concerns. It enables good peer support and is great to just have a chat with parents who are on a similar feeding journey for you, and I am there on hand too should you have any specific quesstions for me.

Further information can be found by clicking onto the 'Support Group' tab above.

Additionally, I have made some free presentations to refer to throughout the early years which may be of interest and are totally FREE! These have 24hr unlimited access, video demonstrations and are narrated to you from evidence based research.

To access these, please click on to the 'Learning Zone' tab above, and enter in the same password given to you following your consultation with me.
