Mom & Baby Nutritionists & More

With so many questions and fears in your mind when becoming a mother for the first time, it is best to consult a lactation consultant. 
Who are they?
Lactation consultants are the professional breastfeeding specialists, who are trained to teach young mothers the process to feed their new born. They help a woman who is experiencing breastfeeding issues like latching difficulties, low milk production or painful nursing. A lactation consultant will also help the baby, who is not gaining enough weight.
Lactation consultant works at a hospital, doctor's office or clinic. Some also have a private practice. They often take classes to make pregnant women fully aware about breastfeeding and it’s nuances. 
They also help women who want to come back to work or school and meet their breastfeeding goals. A lactation consultant is also familiar with various breastfeeding tools and techniques such as breast pumps, and they also explain how to pump and store breast milk safely. 
When should you visit a lactation consultant 
The few studies available show that anywhere from few to most of the breastfeeding women struggle with significant difficulties within the first week of the baby's birth. Top complaints are sore nipples, excessive infant weight loss, latching problems, insufficient milk supply and the delay in the onset of the mother's milk supply. For all such problems related to breastfeeding, the lactation consultant is best positioned to help you out. 
What You'll Learn
Lactation consultants/ counsellors provide a large range of services that include everything from helping a new mom to position her baby on her breast to offering her tips on how to increase the milk supply or handle breast infection. The consultant can also devise feeding strategies for multiples, preemies or infants with serious medical conditions like cleft palate, tongue tie or heart disorder (these babies need the extra nutrition that breastfeeding offers). Also, even after months of breastfeeding, the moms who want to find a good pump or unable to understand the nursing implications of beginning their child’s solid food diet can benefit from visiting a professional lactation consultant / counsellor.  In fact, working mothers need additional assistance to make their breastfeeding journey work even in their absence!
Sometime, the best commodity the lactation consultant may offer you is simple reassurance – an affirmation that you are in no way a failure as a new mother should you be struggling to be one, or concrete proof that your breastfeeding is working well for your child indeed. But that’s important too! The moment the breastfeeding mom is confident and happy, oxytocin hormone is generated in bulk and the breastfeeding process works smoothly.

As new parents to be there is no doubt that you and your partner must be excited to welcome a new baby. Preparation list for clothes, toys, bed etc must be taking all your time. But I bet, that during those quiet snack times, you must be secretly worrying about the D-day. What will labour pains be like? How will I know that my water broke? How soon do I need to reach the hospital once the water breaks or labour pains begin? What should hubby darling do at this time? Many more such questions could be running through your mind. To quell those fears educating yourself on can go a long way in boosting your confidence. This is where pregnancy classes come in.

What are pregnancy classes?
Pregnancy classes are basically like tuitions. They prepare you or at least get you as close as you can to giving birth. Not many maternity hospitals conduct pregnancy or birthing classes, but you can check out what is available in your locality.

Pregnancy classes can differ in their philosophy and hence differ in focus as well. Nevertheless they all provide valuable lessons for labour, delivery and postpartum. While some train expecting moms and dads in medication-free methods of pain management, others are taken early on where the focus is more on the changes that an expecting mom undergoes throughout the pregnancy.
How to Find Birthing Classes
Unless you have done enough research about what kind of pregnancy class you want to take it is going to be a task zeroing down on the one that suits your needs and expectations. Get all the help you need, speak to your obstetrician/ gynecologist, family doctor, or a midwife. As you announce your pregnancy, you will be showered with words of advice, so speak to friends, family members, and acquaintances. Some places where you could enquire about pregnancy classes are hospitals, pregnancy centers, and birth centers,
You can also take some courses by using books or DVDs in the comfort of your own home. But ensure to speak to your doctor before going ahead with the DIY bit.

Nanny Agencies in :city
 
I am a stay-at-home and I hired a nanny! Let’s dig the dagger a wee bit deeper… I am a working mom and I hired a nanny to look after my toddler while I am away! Don’t judge! It’s okay to have a Nanny and there is nothing wrong in asking for help.
 
Having said that allowing an unknown person into your home and trusting her to take care of your child can be an unsettling experience. Here is a 10 point plan on how you can make things easy...
 
1.            Make a list: A nanny list will help in shortlisting candidates. Jot down qualities that you would want a nanny to have.
2.            Set a budget: There is no doubt that hiring help today is an expensive affair, so decide how much are you willing to shell out. Check what is the rate nannies in your locality in Mumbai are charging. Consider negotiations by offering more paid days and holidays.
3.            Get the word out: The process of hiring a good nanny is best done through better communication.
4.            Narrow down: Use your instinct while talking to the candidate/ Nanny Agency. If you hear things like.. “I have done…..”, “We provide…” chances are the approach will be more commercial than real. You want a nanny to be interested in looking after your child and not just in negotiating salary.
5.            Cold Call: In your first call consider, Did she answer in the first ring? Did she answer while on duty elsewhere? Did she sound preoccupied? If she missed your call, did she return your call later? After how long?
6.            The interview: We would want to introduce the child/children at this point, but conduct the interview without the chaos, and focus on the nanny candidate. Discuss how she would manage tantrums, fussy eating habits, falls, scrapes etc.
7.            References: She might give you references, but go beyond and ask for references of neighbours, doctors etc.
8.            Make a contract: Most Nanny Agencies work this way. Read the contract offered and make sure you have understood points on vacation, paid holidays, overtime etc.
9.            Make the offer: When you finally make the offer lay out hours, benefits, vacation time, pay cuts etc in black-n-white for your candidate to review.
10.         Random Check-ins: Now that your nanny has entered your house don’t hesitate to make random work-from-home plans, or a sudden “I am home early” schedules to check on how things are going.
