Untangling Low Milk Supply Conference

untangling low milk supply (Facebook Post)

Presented by Barbara Robertson, MA, IBCLC, with the help of Jessica Beemsterboer, MEd, IBCLC, this one-day virtual seminar will help participants be better able to help families assess and explore inadequate milk supply.

Are families actually struggling with low supply or have common myths and beliefs impacted their impressions and make them doubt their ability to provide enough milk for their baby? When the evidence does point to a low rate of milk production, the possible causes and solutions will be examined. The latest research will be reviewed and shared through presentations, discussions, and activities.

Participants will leave the seminar with the skills to help identify possible causes of low rate of milk production and be able to offer potential ways to help.

All sessions will be recorded for watching at your convenience. You can attend live all day, part of the day, or just watch the recordings to receive your 6.5 L-CERPs.
