IBCLC for home visit (West London)

[EleMar]

Hi - can anyone recommend an IBCLC for home visit in west London? My main concern is baby's breast aversion. Thank you.

Have you managed to book anyone yet @EleMar?

@BunnyRuddingtonno, not yet. Do you have a recommendation?

I don’t unfortunately but if you want to tell us a bit more about what’s going on we might be able to offer some suggestions or point you in the direction of some local support.

If you give one of the BFing Helplines a call they might be able to tell you of a local BFC for instance?

Have you been to any of your local BFing Support Groups too?

@BunnyRuddingtonthank you! It's a complicated situation - not too bad, but I was hoping to discuss with someone. It seems there are a few factors at play - forceful letdown and potential partial breast aversion (e.g he struggles when tired, short nursing sessions, huge burps). In addition my baby hates the cradle position and resists naps (he is 4 months old). I'm getting to the point that I'm second guessing everything and I'm no longer sure whether it's a nursing issue, a sleep issue or a combination of both.

ETA: thank you for the resources!
