We attended calm birth classes in the lead up to the birth of DS and the calm birth practitioner was a trained lactation consultant.
She came to our house twice after the birth and helped me with attachment, general questions (DS is our first bub so I had LOTS of questions) and settling techniques...she was fantastic and I can't speak highly enough of her. She was also available for phone support at virtually any time...I spent half an hour on the phone to her at 10.30pm one night.
Her support was invaluable to me and I truly don't know if we would have had such a positive breastfeeding experience if it wasn't for her.
If you are in Sydney and are interested in her details I would be happy to pass them on.
