| I have had several complications with regards to breast feeding my wee boy (now 3 weeks old) and would dearly love to get back on the breast asap. Therefore, I am looking for a highly experienced and competent Lactation consultant to help me. I am happy to use Skype etc. for the consultations, so open to any location in NZ. Thanks for your help. |

Where in the country are you? There are peer counsellors as well that can help with this! If you're in Otago/Southland I can make some recommendations? ------------- #1  Angel babies April 2013, Nov 2013 IVF #1 Nov 2013-CP IVF #2 May 2014-BFN IVF #3 Feb 2015-BFN DS Jun 2015-BFN Oct 16 -Natural BFP!

| Thanks Epictraveller. I am in Nelson (just moved back from Cairns), however, there doesn't seem to be many options here so casting my net a bit wider.... I was thinking I could have a consultation online. But I should also look into the local support groups. I just have had so much advice from so many different people I am nervous about seeking out further help unless they come highly recommended. |
