" Do I need a Lactation Consultant? "

If you are trying to decide whether an appointment with a board certified lactation consultant is the right choice for you, we invite you to read more on our consultations page . Luna Lactation has been honored to work with many families. Although each family's issues and breastfeeding goals have been unique, they all have had one thing in common; that getting support was worth it! Read what some of our clients have had to say.

" But I already saw a Lactation Consultant and I am still having issues! "

Luna Lactation knows each mother and baby are unique...and so are we! We view lactation as a holistic process that is connected to many factors, physical and emotional. Luna Lactation believes that breastfeeding issues should not be compartmentalized, but that the health and well-being of the mother and infant must be viewed as a whole.

In your own health care expereinces you have probably noticed that not every health care provider is a good match for every patient. The same is true for lactation support! If you have already seen a breastfeeding specialist but are still coping with unresolved issues we hope you will continue to reach out for support.

You and your baby are worth it!

" The support was amazing! I always felt you went above and beyond what I expected. After being confused and frustrated with hospital lactation services things really turned around." - Luna Lactation client feedback
