Jackie Wheeler, IBCLC
I am a private Lactation Consultant, operating out of Palmerston North, but covering the Manawatu and beyond.
My passion is to empower each mum that I help with the skills to breastfeed their baby, and ensure they feel confident in their abilities to nurture their child.
I believe that mothers know their babies best, and with the right support and encouragement that they are able to continue their breastfeeding journey.
I have a special interest in tongue and lip tie, and work alongside a GP in Palmerston North who clips anterior tongue ties, posterior tongue ties and lip ties (no age restriction).
How can I help?
There are many issues that a new mother can face with breastfeeding and sometimes its just a little change that makes a big difference. Issues such as:
- Mastitis
- Low Weight Gain
- Tongue Tie
- Lip Tie
- Sore Nipples
- Relactation
- Expressing
- Transitioning Off Nipple Shields
- Engorged Breasts
- Oversupply
- Thrush
All these things and more can cause pain, stress and effect your breastfeeding experience.
There are a lot of options with dealing with these issues. I use my vast experience and education to get to the real problem that is causing so many issues.
Often, a simple change can make a huge difference.
