Before I tell you all about this course, let’s make sure you’re a good fit.
If you’re pregnant and:
You REALLY want to breastfeed your baby!
You wonder if there’s more you should know before your baby arrives, but you’re not sure where to start.
You keep hearing conflicting advice about breastfeeding and feel more confused than prepared.
You’ve tried to research breastfeeding online but feel overwhelmed by all the information.
You’re worried about milk supply, nipple pain, and all the “what-ifs” of breastfeeding.
You want the best for your baby and want to feel fully prepared for those first feeding days.
Breastfeeding didn’t work out last time, and you really want to make it work this time.
OR
If baby is already here and:
You’re struggling with low milk supply and you’re looking for ways to boost your supply and keep baby full.
Your nipples are so sore! You’re trying so hard to breastfeed but every feed hurts and has you feeling anxious, dreading feeds and feeling guilty for not wanting to have baby on your breast. You desperately want to know how to stop breastfeeding from being so painful..
You’re doubting everything! You don’t feel like you’re doing breastfeeding right, you’re not sure if baby is getting enough milk, you just want to do the best for your baby but you don’t know if that’s what you’re doing.
You’re in the right place!
Hi! I’m Arlie Hastings!
I’m an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC).
I help mums learn about breastfeeding and get through breastfeeding struggles so they can have a beautiful bonding breastfeeding journey with their babies that nourishes and protects their little ones.
But before that…
I had A LOT of breastfeeding struggles with my first baby!
I was so shocked that breastfeeding didn’t just work easily for me. I had damaged nipples and was struggling to make enough milk for my baby. It was a really heartbreaking time and it sparked my passion for breastfeeding support.
And most of all… I knew I wanted things to be different with my second baby. I’d done so much breastfeeding training by then and had learned so much more.
That really helped me have a MUCH easier breastfeeding journey with my second baby.
All this to say, I know what it’s like for breastfeeding to not go smoothly.
It can be extremely heartbreaking and full of mum guilt and I don’t want that for you!
I’m here to help you avoid the problems I went through and enjoy this special time with your baby.
Introducing…

Burning Questions your fellow pregnant and new breastfeeding mums asked before grabbing their access
I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed by all the things I'm going to need to learn and do inside this program. Are you sure I can do this?
Absolutely! I know it can feel overwhelming and like a lot to take in when you’ve already got a lot on your mind planning for the birth or looking after your new baby, so I’ve kept the lessons short (just 10-15 minutes) so you can take it in bite-sized pieces. You can take it as slow as you need, at your own pace.
I'm not sure this is really for me. Can you explain who this course is for?
This course is for you if you’re pregnant and planning to breastfeed or you’re already breastfeeding your baby and:
- Feeling worried you won’t be able to breastfeed even though you really want to
You’re excited about becoming a mum, and you really want to breastfeed your baby but those scary breastfeeding stories make you anxious. You want the confidence that you can help your baby thrive on your breastmilk’s magic.
- Struggling with low milk supply.
You don’t have enough milk (or you’re worried you don’t) and you desperately want to know how to boost your supply and keep baby full.
- You’re scared that breastfeeding will hurt:
Fear of breastfeeding pain holds you back. Let’s conquer that fear together for a more comfortable breastfeeding journey.
- Experiencing painful damaged nipples from breastfeeding:
Every feed hurts and has you feeling anxious, dreading feeds and feeling guilty for not wanting to have baby on your breast. You need tips on how to stop breastfeeding from being so painful.
- Feeling doubtful that you will actually be able to breastfeed your baby:
You really want to breastfeed your baby but you’re not sure if you have what it takes! You might be thinking “What if I fail?! I won’t be a good mum!”
- Worried you aren’t, or feeling scared you won’t make enough milk for your baby:
You’re holding onto this worry that maybe you won’t make enough milk for your baby. It’s like a cloud over your excitement about nourishing your baby. You’re scared that baby will be hungry and not get the milk they need.
I'm not sure I need this. Breastfeeding is natural, so it will just happen, won't it?
Breastfeeding IS natural, but it’s also a learned skill. It takes practice for both you and baby to get the hang of it. This course is designed to equip you with essential knowledge and techniques to help you have a smooth and comfortable breastfeeding journey right from the start, setting you and your baby up for success. Lots of mums who don’t learn about breastfeeding end up stopping much earlier than they wanted to because of problems they didn’t expect or know how to overcome.
Will this course help me if my baby's already here and I'm having trouble breastfeeding?
Yes! You have not missed the boat on this! This course offers valuable techniques and insights that can help get you on your way to overcoming some of your existing breastfeeding struggles as quickly as possible!
Is there information about pumping too?
Yes, in module 5 there is a lesson about the common questions asked about expressing and how to make it more efficient. And don’t forget about your Pump It Up Bonus Ebook! It has everything you need to know about pumping.
How much time and effort goes will I need to put in to finish this course?
The course lesson videos total about 4 hours. Plus you’ll need a little extra time to watch and look at the supporting resources and do the work in the planning stage.
Do I get the full course at once?
Yes, the course modules are all ready, available and waiting for you inside your course hub immediately after you enrol.
If you’re thinking “this sounds amazing, but I’m still not 100% sure”, keep reading…
You should give Breastfeeding Basics: From Prep To Pro a 7-day-risk-free shot if you’re moviated by any of the following:
01
You want to protect your baby from harmful illnesses and medical conditions
You know by breastfeeding, you’re offering your little one a direct line of defense, providing antibodies and essential nutrients that act as a shield against common illnesses like respiratory infections, gastrointestinal issues, ear infections, and more. This incredible protection extends even further, lowering the risk of more serious conditions, like diabetes and some cancers, setting the stage for a healthier life from the very start.
02
You desperately want your baby to have the best nutrition
You know that by breastfeeding, you’re giving your baby the finest nutrition nature can offer. It’s about providing them with the exact nutrients they need, easily absorbed and perfectly suited for their growth and development.
03
You want to strengthen and protect the bond between you and your baby
The strong emotional connection and closeness between you and your baby fostered by breastfeeding is important to you. You want to creating a secure foundation for trust and loving attachment with time for eye contact, cuddles, and soothing moments that not only nourish their body but also nurture their emotional development that will contribute to their overall emotional well-being as they grow.
A Note From Arlie…
(your personal guide to creating a breastfeeding journey that nourishes your baby, feels beautiful and fulfulling and gives your baby [and you!] amazing health benefits that last a lifetime).
Breastfeeding isn’t a magical talent that only certain people have.
But it is a powerful tool helping you nourish, protect, grow and connect with your baby.
Whether you’re pregnant and really want to breastfeed but are feeling scared by the common horror stories of excruciating nipple pain and low milk supply…
Or your baby is already here and breastfeeding is harder than you thought it would be… painful and full of anxiety, and you’re longing for the beautiful bonding experience everyone said it would be…
Learning about breastfeeding – how it works, how to do it and how to troubleshoot the common problems can move you giant leaps towards being able to comfortably give your baby the best nutrition and protection desperately want for them.
(Okay… that does sound pretty magical!)
But here’s an insider tip…
Not a single mum in history has gotten through the birth of their baby and then felt 100% certain of how to breastfeed the little human they’re now holding in their arms.
No one knows how to do something they’ve never done before.
Just about everyone asks, “Will I actually be able to give my baby what they need? Can I actually do it? Am I good enough??”
Mumma, I created Breastfeeding Basics: From Prep To Pro to replace those doubts with research based positive action.
Because it’s what I wish I’d had when I was desperately struggling to breastfeeding my baby.
Because here’s another pro tip…
It’s not the smartest, most talented, most well-read or most perfect mum that goes on to breastfeed their baby successfully.
It’s the ones willing to try, do everything they can to battle the potential odds and put their hands up to ask for help if they need it because they’re committed to a breastfeeding journey that will protect and nourish their little ones for the long haul.
This means learning about breastfeeding – right now – is a REALLY good idea.
You are completely capable of breastfeeding your baby and there has truly never been a better time to get in on learning how to make breastfeeding work for you and your baby.
There are tools, techniques and information available to help you and I’m here to walk alongside you, every step of the way.
I can’t wait to meet you, teach you, and cheer you on inside Breastfeeding Basics: From Prep To Pro!❤️
