Meet Rebecca
Eight years ago I was preparing for birth and parenthood of my first child. I wanted to labor and deliver with unnecessary interventions and even took a ten-week Bradly Birthing class that was great! I ended up having a very high risk medically managed pregnancy and delivery. I delivered my son who I then needed to feed. It's too bad I didn't take a ten week breastfeeding class, because I had no clue how to feed this most precious thing in the world to me. He quickly lost weight, became jaundice, and every time he nursed we both cried. I felt as if I failed at birth so I couldn't fail at breastfeeding as well. Finally, I reached out and got help from an amazing IBCLC who was able to help me realize our challenges and offer us solutions to help.
Breastfeeding was such a challenging for me that making sure other families have support on their journey has become my life's work.
For the past eight years I have been committed to helping families with breastfeeding. Before opening up Naturally Nourished Lactation Consulting I worked as a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Nurse. While in that role I had the privilege and honor of assisting the smallest of all babies breastfeed.
Since 2019 I have been operating Naturally Nourished Lactation consulting in Bowling Green, KY. Serving the families of Kentucky has truly been a joy.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and as always keep up the good and hard work.
Warmly, Rebecca
