Want to become a Certified Breastfeeding Counselor? Are you a support system for your lactating friends? Want to dive in and gain come credentials in counseling? I was a CBC before I was an IBCLC. I am very proud to announce two courses: Certified Breastfeeding Counselor - Core Course and the Advanced Lactation Course - for those who want to become IBCLCs like me.
The Core Course is 45 hours, worth 45 CERPS, these are Continuing Education Recognition Points for lactation professionals. The Advanced Lactation Course is 50 CERPs for those who are aspiring IBCLCs. I wrote those two courses and they are 100% online, self-paced and I am the instructor. I am on the faculty at International Breastfeeding Institute which is the lactation school of the International Doula Institute. https://internationalbreastfeedinginstitute.com/

Most new mothers – experts estimate about 80% — experience mood swings and weepiness during the first 2-3 weeks after giving birth. Sometimes called “the baby blues”, this is a normal adjustment period and resolves without any medical assistance.
If you are not sure if your thoughts or feelings are normal, reach out to your OBGYN, Midwife and call this place. https://www.postpartum.net/get-help/
