POSTPARTUM
New parents may reach out to a lactation consultant for a multitude of reasons. These may include difficult/painful latching, concerns about infant weight gain and/or milk supply, suspected oral tethers, breast** refusal and much more. There are also those times when feeding may be going well but parents want that extra piece of mind that comes from a trusted lactation expert.
The initial visit may include, but is not limited to: detailed health history for both parent and baby, breast/nipple assessment, infant oral assessment, and observation of feeding/pumping session.
FOLLOW-UP
These visits are designed for established clients who require extended support. These visits could cover new topics like returning to work/pumping, teething, introduction to solids, weaning and/or for continued resolution of previous concerns.
**DISCLAIMER**
My aim is to create an inclusive space for all parents. Throughout this site, you will see the terms "breast" and "breastfeeding". These terms are used to describe the milk-making anatomy of the human body, regardless of gender.
