Suzzie Becomes a Doula after her Two Daughters

Breastfeeding Relief with Bethany

In this episode, Bethany talks with Suzzie, who struggled with breastfeeding her first child and didn't have much support or resources. With her second baby, she had severe pain breastfeeding due to a tongue tie, but her midwife helped diagnose and treat it. Suzzie wishes she had known to seek out a lactation consultant for help instead of just powering through challenges. Having a community of other moms helps normalize the breastfeeding journey and struggles.
