Office Visit

A prenatal office appointment is available to get you off to the best start. We will discuss and develop your breastfeeding goals. Your lactation consultant will review your health history to identify any risk factors for low milk supply. Explore options to meet the needs of your family and feel better prepared for the first few days of feeding of your new baby. We can discuss antenatal colostrum collection, the golden hour, and incorporate your breastfeeding goals into your birth plan. 

An in-office postpartum appointment is available. We will review health history, complete a breast and oral assessment, obtain a weight, and assist with hands-on breastfeeding session. You will receive a individualized plan of care to promote your goals. Common concerns are: milk supply, latch, positioning, pain, pumping, and more. Other concerns may arise as your baby grows that may need to be addressed with your lactation consultant, such as bottle refusal, breast refusal, mastitis, low milk supply, oversupply, and more.
