Ep. 44: How to recognise low milk supply

Infant feeding specialist Alice Lucken joins us to talk about how to recognise low milk supply. As an IBCLC Alice supports families with unsettled babies and infant feeding challenges.

In this episode on low milk supply Alice talks us through the common causes for low milk supply, the signs to look out for and ways in which you can help boost your milk supply for the successful continuation of breastfeeding.

Alice also addresses the common misconceptions around milk supply and the damage that can be caused when we have 'perceived low milk supply'.
