Send us a Text Message.Leah is a first time mum who prepared extensively for labour, birth and breastfeeding through her pregnancy. She was dreaming of the first breastfeed in the birth suite and having the ‘golden hour' together. However, when her daughter Hazel was born she had breathing difficulties and was taken to the special care nursery within 5 minutes of being born. Leah tells me her story from the firsts minutes after birth establishing a milk supply and getting Hazel to feed at the breast whilst still being in the special care nursery. She shares how the peadiatricians were insistent on using formula top-ups but thankfully she had really wonderful support from the midwives with getting breastfeeding up and going. Leah tells me how they transitioned on to breastfeeding by using a supply line. 7 months later and Leah and Hazel are still breastfeeding. Leah shares with me how she sought support for breastfeeding positional challenges with larger breasts. Trying and not quite managing to get Hazel to take a bottle at 10 weeks of age and how  the bottle refusal that came can really impact on a sense of freedom as a new mum.In this episode Leah brings up some real home truths and a beautiful story of overcoming challenges.Join me on the couch for this lovely episode.   Get 10% off Katie's courses - use code POD10 at checkout Pregnant or in the first few weeks after birth: The Feeding Couch For health professionals and birth workers: Breastfeeding & Lactation: the fundamentals online course Please support the show!

Sarah Hunstead from CPR Kids explains the difference between uncomfortable wheezing and when it's a real struggle to breathe. She explains what to look for - from the way they breathe to the colour of their lips. 

About a quarter of a billion people around the world are affected by asthma, when the lungs' airways constrict, making breathing difficult. For decades we've treated the condition with drugs that relax the muscles in the airways and damp down the immune response that makes the airways tighten in the first place. But, recently, researchers have discovered that asthmatic airways also contain bulkier muscles than they should do.
