A Beautiful but Challenging Time
The newborn days can be both beautiful and brutal (brutiful as Dr Julie will say). Some days it is hard enough to get out of your pajamas, let alone think about preparing a nutritious meal.
Breastfeeding is not always an easy journey. Dr Julie understands this first hand. Sometimes there are a number of challenges that can arise and when you are tired it can be hard to know just what to eat to support your feeding journey.
If you are struggling with milk supply, fatigue, or eating for a colic/reflux baby Dr Julie has specialised short consultations focused on this.
