Gestalt Breastfeeding Self-help Program

Marathon feeds
Excessively frequent breastfeeds

We invite you to explore gestalt breastfeeding before you proceed with oral surgery or medications. Many families find they need go no further. Fit, hold, and positional stability problems cause babies to back-arch and fuss at the breast, or
women to have nipple pain, and yet are still commonly not picked up.

"After 8 weeks of struggles I feel like I have finally found the answer! I was considering posterior tongue tie revision, but my instinct said it was wrong and I am so happy to hear your scientific input. My son is now partially conditioned to hate breastfeeding and it was breaking my heart. I was about to give up breastfeeding but now have hope we can continue. I plan to tell all my pregnant and breastfeeding friends about the gestalt method!"
