BONUS Q&A: Breastfeeding and returning to work with Shterna Glick

Shterna Glick is a midwife, lactation consultant and mother of five. Through her Instagram page, @melbourne_lactation, Shterna has gained a following for her knowledge and experience as both a mother and a professional, and for her practical, informative posts on all things breastfeeding.

Her approach to supporting breastfeeding parents is sustainable and supportive, and what I love most about this conversation is that Shterna’s advice is mother-centred, because as we know – or at least have been told but maybe forget – is that when the mother is happy, the baby is happy too.

Breastfeeding, bottle feeding, pumping, weaning, returning to work and all that comes with it is pretty stressful for parents.

So here, Shterna answers all your burning questions in the hope to make you feel a little bit more relaxed in your feeding and return to work journey.
