The Connection between Breastfeeding and Mental Health
Amelia, a Board-Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), is the owner of Bellflower Lactation in the Twin Cities. Inspired by her own breastfeeding challenges with her three daughters, she founded Bellflower Lactation to provide evidence-based, family-focused lactation care. Amelia's approach is unique in that she emphasizes the importance of mental health in the breastfeeding journey, recognizing the impact of stress, anxiety, and depression on both parents and babies.
Bellflower Lactation offers a variety of services, including prenatal consultations, virtual and in-person visits, and home visits. Amelia's comprehensive approach to lactation care includes assessing oral function, providing individualized feeding plans, and collaborating with other healthcare professionals to ensure optimal outcomes for families. She also highlights the importance of recognizing and addressing tethered oral tissues (tongue and lip ties) and offers education and support for families navigating these challenges.
