I connected with Pam through my doula Sarah. We were having issues with weight gain, after a traumatic postpartum.
Pam came over the next day after expressing my doctor's concerns to my doula Sarah. I was latching her as much as she wanted, feeding every two hours and no weight was being gained. When Pam came over, her presence just took the weight off my shoulders. Her bubbly personality and caring tone just made me feel comfortable.
Before we even started looking at how feedings were going, she checked on me first. Asked me how I was doing. Asked about our birth and our postpartum journey so far. Pam then checked out Caraline’s mouth and explained everything she was checking for, as well as how it would affect her. I showed her how Caraline was feeding and she assured me I was doing everything right. She made a few suggestions to help. Once Caraline was full, she communicated things I could watch for.
She wrote down some suggested supplements to help with my supply and where I could find them. As well as giving me more information on some ways that could help my supply.
Pam was not only very knowledgeable, but she was friendly, caring and very supportive. I can say we wouldn’t be here still breastfeeding at 14 months without her. She a very big part of our success.
Oh and did I mention, she did all of this while having her little one in a wrap on her body! That’s how amazing she is.” -K.W.
