S2 Ep17: Neurodivergence and lactation with Lucy Ruddle IBCLC
Today's episode is with Lucy Ruddle IBCLC. Lucy is a lactation consultant, breastfeeding counsellor and holistic sleep coach. Lucy has ADHD and is a mum to two ND children. We talk about her own experiences, discuss neurodivergent infant feeding challenges and positives, and reflect on the amazing tool that lactation is for co-regulating the nervous systems of both parents and children, particularly in neurodivergent families when this can be even more powerful. You can find out more about Lucy's work at lucyruddle.co.uk.
This is our final episode of Season 2, but do stayed tuned for Season 3 launching in May which is recording now. If you’d like to participate, contact us via ndbirth.com.
