Every visit together is tailored to your individual needs, since everyone’s breastfeeding and baby journey is different! I will want to address your primary concerns and answer any questions you have. Since it helps me understand the whole picture, I will ask lots of questions about your health history, your baby’s health, your birth story, what feeding looks like right now, and if we’re in person give hands-on help. With your permission, I can also assess your breast/chest anatomy and do an oral function evaluation for your baby.

Together, we’ll come up with a feeding plan to help you feel comfortable and confident!

Common concerns we can address:

• latching & positioning

• weight check and milk transfer evaluation

• low milk supply or managing oversupply

• engorgement, plugged ducts, mastitis

• oral function assessment for baby including observations about tongue and lip ties and body tension

• pumping help including flange sizing

• bottle feeding support

• customized prenatal lactation class

• prenatal colostrum collection guidance

• returning to work

• weaning

• normal newborn behavior questions and help with things like soothing, gas and burp techniques, swaddling.

• special circumstances (tandem nursing, sensory issues, twins)
