サマリー
あらすじ・解説
In this talk, I discuss the challenges of talking about formula as a lactation care provider and provides ideas to stay inspired and ready to discuss formula with clients. I share my own experiences with infant feeding so that you know my context and emphasize the importance of understanding where clients are coming from when discussing formula. I also provide guidance on how to approach conversations about formula, including assessing the need for formula, exploring clients' concerns and preferences, and reminding them that formula can be a temporary tool if necessary. I highlight the role of lactation care providers in educating and supporting parents in making informed decisions about infant feeding.
It can be hard to talk about formula, but I’ve got ideas and guidance for you.
It’s our role as lactation care providers to help our clients and patients explore, learn, and make informed decisions when they’re thinking about using formula.
These frameworks that I discuss here on the podcast can help you approach those conversations in a neutral way and stay organized as you offer education and support.
This is a huge topic, so you can expect more to come on this.
