Feeling Scared or Worried About Breastfeeding?
That makes sense! With the mixed messages you are receiving at every turn, how could you not have some confusion, worry, or even fear?
​
Will it hurt? Will I produce enough milk? Are my breasts too small? Too big? Why does it seem like so many people have problems? Will it work for me?
Your partner reassures you that everything's going to be fine, which you appreciate, but it'd be nice to talk to someone who can validate these very real concerns and provide some guidance and resources to help you feel more prepared.
It's hard to make a plan with all the unknowns of having a new baby, but don't worry, one of my favorite comedians, Ali Wong, has summed it up perfectly with her "Breastfeeding is like Parallel Parking" explanation.

The Founders Note
Emily Stone |
Welcome to a journey of empowerment and holistic care. As a mother of three, I've experienced firsthand the challenges of birthing and breastfeeding, each time feeling like an unguided DIY project.
Recognizing the limitations of traditional, medicalized prenatal support, I embraced a holistic approach that values the mind-body-spirit connection in nurturing new life.
With over 15 years dedicated to creating effective online courses, I've infused Empowered Breastfeeding Bootcamp™ with compassion, comprehensive information, and ongoing support.
This program is my heart's work, born from conversations with countless mothers who wished they had these resources earlier. Together, we're pioneering a new norm for maternal care, empowering you with the knowledge and tools for your unique journey.
Let's reshape the future of breastfeeding, making holistic, informed care the standard for the next generation. Your feedback is invaluable in this mission.
Welcome aboard!
