The 12 Days of Breastfeeding Summit
Understanding your unique breastfeeding journey with your baby takes time. But it’s often during this transition period that new moms say it feels the most difficult to continue nursing. So we’re sharing not only what to expect in those precious first weeks after birth, but solutions to common problems to ensure you’re off to the best start for a successful breastfeeding adventure.
does this sound familiar?
Trust me, I’ve been there!
YOU’RE NOT ALONE
You’re experiencing this problem because...
01. This isn’t taught!
If you didn’t grow up watching mothers breastfeed, helping them, and asking copious questions chances are you weren’t taught much about breastfeeding. It certainly isn’t a part of school sex-ed classes, birth isn’t either.
02. You need more than that hospital class
Whether or not you have been able to take a hospital lactation class you need more. These classes are great for covering the basics and hearing some of the questions others may have, but time is limited and the information is too. The 12 Days of Breastfeeding Summit Replays offers over 12 hours of whole health lactation education!
03. Your journey is unique
Facebook groups are great but each family has a different feeding journey. In The 12 Days of Breastfeeding Summit Replays, we cover topics you might not think to ask about, along with evidence-based information about topics you have the most questions about.

MEET YOUR host
hi, i’m shari!
I’m a scrunchy, perpetually tired, socially awkward extended breastfeeding NorCal mom behind Navigating Parenthood. I’m also a lactation educator, breastfeeding specialist, postpartum doula, mother roaster, ICST, and infant massage instructor. I’ve been the mom who is worried she won’t be able to breastfeed, the mom with mastitis and cracked nipples, the confidant breastfeeder, the not-so-confidant breastfeeder, and the mom on little number 3 struggling to wait for her milk to increase after birth. My hope is that this summit helps you gain more info, tools, and resources that you can have in your pocket should you need them so that you’re not filled with panic or anxiety during this important journey.
