Breastfeeding is a lot less daunting when you have a lactation consultant to turn to.
Thomson Medical takes pride in being the country’s only private hospital for maternity healthcare, and one reason it is a preferred choice for mummies in Singapore is thanks to its team of experienced lactation consultants. We sit down with Ms Fonnie Lo (pictured above), Assistant Director, Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), to find out what it takes to be a lactation consultant, and the kind of support Thomson mummies can expect.
WHAT DOES A TYPICAL DAY LOOK LIKE FOR A LACTATION CONSULTANT?
Besides seeing outpatients and antenatal patients, conducting home visits, and running training workshops, lactation consultants make their rounds in the wards to guide mothers on how to breastfeed in the most comfortable and effective way. Some mothers face difficulties like sore bleeding nipples, or improper latching. Our consultants help them deal with these challenges by teaching them proper techniques.
