Our certified lactation consultants are available to meet with you for private, individualized help if you and your baby need assistance with breastfeeding. You may consider a private consultation for the following:
Prenatal breast assessment
You may have flat or inverted nipples, need nipple and breast care instruction or have other concerns.
Attachment and positioning techniques
Learning the proper way to attach your baby to the breast when you begin breastfeeding may prevent potential problems. This may be the single most important breastfeeding instruction you need.
Information and assessment of the quantity of your milk and your baby's weight gain
This concerns many mothers since it's difficult to see or know how much milk your baby is getting.
Nipple soreness
Learn proper attachment techniques to avoid soreness and how to deal with discomfort if it occurs.
Breastfeeding observation
Having a skilled advisor watch you feed your baby and offer suggestions to help you improve your technique or avoid future problems.
