Manage episode 431502650 series 3451095
Whether you are currently breastfeeding, have faced your own breastfeeding challenges, are preparing for motherhood or wanting to support those around you - today's episode reminds us that while breastfeeding can be a beautiful experience, it is also okay to encounter difficulties and seek help when needed.
Marika Day is an Accredited Practising Dietitian and Nutritionist with over 10 years of experience in various clinical areas with the goal of promoting her message of balanced, healthy living. Recently, she became a new mum to her first son, Jude who has struggled with CMPA which set Marika on a windy path to discover a feeding solution that worked for them both.
In this podcast we discuss
- How her professional background influenced her approach to motherhood and breastfeeding, as well as some of the initial challenges faced
- When she realised she needed more support and where she turned for assistance
- The rollercoaster of introducing formula - and how this is not the "easy way out"
- The impact on both her physical and emotional well-being
- How her experienced changed her perspective on motherhood and breastfeeding/bottle feeding
- Advice for other mothers who are struggling with breastfeeding
- ... and so much more!

We are huge fans of Franjo’s Kitchen and their incredible, natural, functional and delicious lactation cookies created by health professionals to support mothers from pregnancy through to postpartum & beyond. Their Australian made and owned cookies are dairy and egg free with gluten free options too – but be warned – they are SERIOUSLY delicious (and Kate has found them really effective too). Our personal favourites are the choc chip and fig and almond flavours – which are the perfect snack when you’re breastfeeding or one handed trying to wrangle a toddler!
