The Feeding Couch
Welcome to The Feeding Couch podcast; a place where the real, uncensored, breastfeeding and postpartum stories are told. I am a midwife and Lactation Consultant and over the decades working with families I’ve seen a variety of feeding journeys and I can tell you that not one of them is the same. In our worId of perfect portrayal of postpartum on social media its time to shine a light on what's really going on in those first weeks, months and years when we set out to feed our babies.
The Feeding Couch
Ros Ginn - three babies, three tongue ties and three very different feeding experiences!
Ros Ginn is mum to three children, whose experiences of pregnancy, birth and postnatal care has led to her becoming a hypnobirthing instructor and doula.
Ros is a strong advocate of sharing good and accurate information, so that people are able to make the right choices for themselves - whether that’s about birth, breastfeeding, or parenting in general.
In this episode Ros talks about breastfeeding her three children, all of whom had tongue ties which needed releasing. Ros weaves her story from the challenges of feeding with an unrecognised tongue tie and not trusting her own instincts with her first, to having a traumatic second birth but still being able to quickly recognise what was wrong with breastfeeding and alleviate it, to her third baby being born at home with a powerful home birth experience, again being faced with the challenge of breastfeeding through a lot of pain but having gone full circle, and now finding the strength and confidence in herself to move through her feeding experience so much easier.
