Pregnancy & Birth Made Easy Breastfeeding Confidence: Preparing for a Positive Experience with Little Bear Lactation
"You probably shouldn’t learn how to swim when you're drowning." That one hit me hard—and it’s exactly why this episode exists.
Whether you’re a first-time mama, or you’ve had a difficult breastfeeding journey before, this conversation is going to leave you feeling empowered, educated, and supported. I sat down with Jamie Zaki, an IBCLC, doula, nurse, and mom of five (yes, five!), to talk about how to prepare for breastfeeding before baby arrives.
Jamie shares her real, raw postpartum story—including giving up her nursing school seat due to lack of pumping accommodations—and how it sparked her passion to support other mamas through education and advocacy. This episode is full of truth bombs, prep tips, and gentle reminders that you are not alone—and it can be different this time.
