Certified Breastfeeding Counselor (CBC) Practice

Removing visitors is a recommended way to reduce stress for breastfeeding because having visitors around can sometimes add to the stress of a new mother. While massage, skin-to-skin contact, and adequate sleep are also important for promoting breastfeeding and reducing stress, the presence of visitors can sometimes be overwhelming and interfere with the breastfeeding process. It's important for a breastfeeding mother to have a conducive and peaceful environment to effectively breastfeed and bond with her baby.
