S1 EP9 - How to stop the top-ups

Have you been advised to give extra milk besides breastfeeds? This is known as giving a top-up feed and it is often only needed as a temporary measure. Unfortunately, many mums find that they have been caught in a cycle of topping-up and they don’t know how to stop. In this episode, Jessica and Simone chat about some of the things you can do to breastfeed more and stop, or at least reduce, the top-ups.Links to more about the information discussed in this episode and the episode transcript: https://www.breastfeeding.asn.au/podcast-s1-ep9-how-stop-top-upsVisit the blog for more on this topic: https://www.breastfeeding.asn.au/blog-help-I-cant-stop-the-top-upsFor breastfeeding help right now (for listeners in Australia), call our National Breastfeeding Helpline on 1800 686 268, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week: https://aba.asn.au/breastfeedinghelplineBWABA Want to join the conversation?
