Die Grootste Leuens oor Borsvoeding (Wat ’n Vroedvrou Wil Hê Jy moet Weet) Dit is borsvoedingsweek – en hierdie week se episode lê my besonders na aan die hart. Nie net omdat borsvoeding vir soveel ma’s belangrik én uitdagend is nie, maar ook omdat ons heel eerste gas ooit, Katinka Lategan, weer saamgesels. In haar terugkeer na die mikrofoon deel Katinka, ’n ervare vroedvrou, haar diepgaande kennis oor borsvoeding. Ons gesels oor die fisiologie daarvan, hoe kolostrum werk, en die hormonale en emosionele skommelinge wat ma’s ná geboorte beleef. Maar veral fokus ons op die waninligting wat steeds versprei word: die leuens wat ma’s laat voel hulle doen iets verkeerd, of nie goed genoeg is nie. As jy tans borsvoed, oorweeg om te begin, of dalk steeds wonder hoekom dit nie vir jou uitgewerk het nie... hierdie gesprek is vir jóú. Want wanneer jy iets beter verstaan, kan jy met meer selfvertroue besluite neem vir jou, jou baba en julle unieke situasie. It’s World Breastfeeding Week and this episode is one that’s especially close to my heart. Not just because breastfeeding is such a big and sometimes tough part of motherhood, but also because my very first podcast guest ever, Katinka Lategan, is back behind the mic. Katinka is an experienced midwife and in this episode she shares her deep knowledge of breastfeeding. We talk about how it actually works, what colostrum is and why it matters, and the emotional and hormonal rollercoaster many moms go through after birth. But we also zoom in on the myths that still get shared too often. The kind of misinformation that can make a mom doubt herself or feel like she’s doing it all wrong. If you’re currently breastfeeding, thinking about starting, or still wondering why it didn’t work out for you, this conversation is for you. Because once you really understand how it all works, you can make choices that feel right for you, your baby and your unique situation. - Intro Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/burst-of-light License code: I430IW70W4DQLJ9Z
