Answers to your breastfeeding questions : Breastfeeding Help!
Welcome to Breastfeeding-Help.com, where I hope you will find all the information you need for an enjoyable and problem-free breastfeeding experience.
I am Geesje (pronounced Heisje) de Jong, a Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). I am Dutch (i.e. I come from the Netherlands) and reside alternatively in Friesland, in the Netherlands and in Athens, Greece. Through my profession I had the pleasure of helping many mothers, from all over the world but especially from the U.S., Canada and the European Union, overcome successfully various breastfeeding difficulties and problems by personal help and by providing the information, support and advice they needed.

I have three children Annie, Dennis and Esther, and it was an immense joy
to breastfeed all of them.
Through my enthusiasm for breastfeeding I am dedicated to helping other mothers to experience this special, loving bond with their baby.
Since breastfeeding is a natural consequence to giving birth, many mothers assume that knowing how to breastfeed comes also naturally. Unfortunately reality is not like this while breastfeeding. Breastfeeding is a skill that requires learning and practice. Many women do experience some difficulties and problems at the beginning while learning to nurse, especially first-time mothers.
Being well informed about all aspects of breastfeeding will help you get it off to a good start with confidence and let you enjoy that wonderful relationship with your baby while providing him with the best nutrition available.
I encourage you to read the Breastfeeding Topics pages, as well as the 'Frequently Asked Questions' section, which contain the latest information on how to breastfeed and how to recognize and solve the most common difficulties and problems while breastfeeding. I have attempted to cover in great detail most subjects on breastfeeding of interest to the nursing mother, including advice on most problems commonly encountered while breastfeeding.
Furthermore there are some excellent books on breastfeeding subjects that I personally always recommend to new and expectant mothers, you'll find them under topic 'Recommended Books'.
However, not all babies are born the same and also not all moms fit in the same mold. Individual cases sometimes require individual attention and advice. Even problem-free cases may turn sour in the absence of proper advice and consultation.
Fortunately, most of the time problems may be resolved efficiently
and promptly when an experienced professional lactation consultant is at hand. As a lactation consultant (and mom of three breastfed babies) I have had the satisfaction of successfully assisting many breastfeeding mothers in achieving their goal of providing the very best for their babies in terms of nutrition and emotional fulfillment through the "wonderful art of breastfeeding"!
