Are you looking for honest stories and practical tips about expressing milk and breastfeeding? Discover Kolfcast, the first podcast about pumping, in which midwife Elke Notebaert has open conversations about breast milk, pumping and combining work with a baby.
What is Kolfcast?
Kolfcast is a Flemish podcast entirely devoted to expressing milk – a subject that is still surprisingly rarely talked about openly. In every episode, midwife Elke Notebaert, founder of De Wolk, shares her knowledge and experience together with mothers, care providers and lactation consultants.
The conversations are honest, calm and illuminating. They offer support to every parent who pumps or breastfeeds, or is considering doing so.
