About Postpartum, Lactation & Newborn Care
Real Support for New Moms
I know how confusing the first weeks after birth can be. There's advice from every corner, and sometimes it feels like nobody gets what you’re going through. My sessions are here for you – to make you feel heard and confident.
Breastfeeding Without Drama
Breastfeeding is stressful for most new moms. I break down the basics: getting the latch right, finding comfy positions, and practical ways to boost milk supply (yes, even if you’re worried you have “no milk” – ungaloda body romba nalla pannum (your body does amazing work)). I share milk supply tips for new moms, and help you move from formula to exclusive breastfeeding, if that’s your goal.
Clearing Up Myths (Tamil & English)
Indha generation-la (these days), family advice can sometimes be more confusing than helpful. I bust common myths with real info, so you know what actually works.
Paapa Care, No Gimmicks
Newborns don’t need fancy tech. I’m strict on no screen time for babies. Your face, voice, and touch matter most. Simple, evidence-based care – nothing scary.
Amma’s Recovery is Important
You’re healing from birth, physically and emotionally. Postpartum emotional recovery takes time, sometimes years. I talk about what’s normal, and why you shouldn’t rush yourself.
Dads Matter
Partner involvement in lactation is big. I help new dads learn easy ways to support, from burping paapa to making sure Amma gets her meals.

My Story
You know, life has its own way of teaching. Family’s always been my backbone. My Amma, Renuka Devi, and Appa showed me what real care looks like. In-laws? Pure gold. Last few months, full busy with classes, travel, kids falling sick, but their help kept me going. That's why I say, pregnancy isn’t just one person’s thing – it’s a whole family journey. In Vriksham, I’m your Anu Akka, always here for you.

Confidence & Knowledge - I clear doubts, bust myths, and explain why things matter. With right info, fear goes away.
Trust Your Body - Trying to conceive, IVF, PCOS, diabetes? I teach labor breathing techniques, exercises, and diet to help you trust yourself.
