Do I need a Lactation Consultant?

There are many situations in which families can benefit from a private, professional lactation consultation. Some reasons to seek assistance from a board-certified lactation consultant (IBCLC) include but are not limited to:

· Mother issues: milk supply issues, sore nipples/breasts, history of hormonal issues/infertility, past breast surgery, medical issues/illness, past breastfeeding problems, planning to return to work/school,  other unresolved breastfeeding concerns (prenatally or postpartum).

· Baby issues: weight gain concerns, latch concerns, prematurity, multiples, traumatic birth, jaundice, unresolved fussiness, medical/anatomical issues that impact feeding, baby being supplemented or using specialized feeding tools, sleep/growth/solid food guidance, adoption, any other unresolved feeding concerns.

Phone/email  support or abbreviated appointments

In general breastfeeding support is best done in person, where a visual assessment can be done. However, at times, phone/email support or a brief appointment may suffice. At these times, our hourly rate is prorated.

$60/hr prorated as needed. SCHEDULE NOW
