Breastfeeding
· Consultation & Course ·
Breastfeeding is the best gift you can give your baby and it’s incredibly rewarding, but it takes effort and dedication—and often the support of breastfeeding specialists.
We’ll help you align expectations and avoid complications that often lead to having to stop breastfeeding.
We’re midwives with extensive breastfeeding experience, and that’s really the key when it comes to breastfeeding consultations. We’ve helped over 1,500 mothers achieve successful breastfeeding and that’s what makes us effective: we’ve developed a strong clinical eye that lets us spot the issue and its solution quickly. We know that every breast, every mum, every baby, every little mouth, every nipple is different. Not all of us work the same way—and neither do our babies!
With us, you’ll feel cared for and respected in the comfort of your own home.
Our 3 midwives are highly trained in breastfeeding, including identifying and releasing tongue-tie, which can be the cause of real breastfeeding difficulties, affecting your comfort and enjoyment and your baby’s nutrition. You should know that fewer than 0.5% of midwives and breastfeeding consultants in Madrid are trained in this area.
If you’re not in Madrid or an assessment of latch or your baby’s mouth isn’t needed, you can book an online breastfeeding consultation (you can reserve it below). In any case, we prefer you contact us first so we can guide you and assess the issue.

We can help you in two ways
If you’re a first-time mum, it’s your first time trying to breastfeed, or you want to do it better than before, we’ve prepared a super comprehensive online breastfeeding course for you. We’ll teach you everything you need to know so you and your baby can establish breastfeeding effectively, with as few complications as possible. It’s a course that gets straight to the point, giving you practical information that can genuinely help you establish good breastfeeding and avoid the most common mistakes.
On the other hand, if what you need is a personal consultation, either online or in person, the Bel Mums midwife team will assess your situation and give you the best solution, fully tailored to your circumstances.
Below you’ll find more information about the course and the consultations:

Breastfeeding consultations
Sometimes mums and babies can face issues during breastfeeding, such as nipple pain, difficulties with your baby’s latch, difficulties with sucking, tongue-tie, or an insufficient milk let-down. That’s why it’s sometimes necessary to consult a midwife before stopping breastfeeding.
At Bel Mums, we analyse each case in depth and advise and guide you to give you the solution that best fits you and your baby.
Our 3 midwives are highly trained in breastfeeding, including identifying and releasing tongue-tie which, in 1 out of every 10 babies, will create real breastfeeding difficulties, affecting your comfort and enjoyment and your baby’s nutrition. You should know that fewer than 0.5% of midwives and breastfeeding consultants in Madrid are trained in this area.
If you’re not in Madrid or an assessment of latch or your baby’s mouth isn’t needed, we offer the option to book an online breastfeeding consultation. In any case, if you’re not sure what you need, it’s best to contact us first so we can guide you and assess the issue.
Our Personal Breastfeeding Consultation service is covered by some health insurers with reimbursement policies. You can check them here.
