Low milk supply with Caoimhe Whelan IBCLC
Manage episode 517602601 series 3494257
This week, I’m talking to the wonderful Caoimhe Whelan IBCLC, an Irish lactation consultant and author, about her specialist subject, primary low milk supply. Caoimhe shares her research on insufficient glandular tissue and its impact on breastfeeding mothers and families. We talk about antenatal and postnatal support, the complexities of diagnosing low milk supply, and the role of technology and galactagogues.
You can find out more about Caoimhe on her website https://latch.ie/ and find her research at https://internationalbreastfeedingjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13006-025-00699-4
You can find out more about her fabulous book here: Practical Breastfeeding | Book by Caoimhe Whelan, Lauren Rebbeck, Nicola O'Byrne | Official Publisher Page | Simon & Schuster UK
My new picture book on how breastfeeding journeys end, The Story of Jessie’s Milkies, is available from Amazon here - The Story of Jessie's Milkies. In the UK, you can also buy it from The Children’s Bookshop in Muswell Hill, London. Other book shops and libraries can source a copy from Ingram Spark publishing.
You can also get 10% off my books on supporting breastfeeding beyond six months and supporting the transition from breastfeeding at the Jessica Kingsley press website, that's uk.jkp.com using the code MMPE10 at checkout.
