60 min

Icon representing virtual visit.Icon indicating 60 minutes.

In this 60 minute consultation, we will review your pregnancy and health history, address any questions you may have as you prepare to breast/chestfeed, whether you’re a first time parent or a seasoned pro who has faced challenges in the past. If you’re looking to induce lactation, we can review the protocol and how to get started on the process. This is a great opportunity to receive personalized help prior to delivery. Partners or other household members who may be supporting you postpartum are encouraged to attend!

Topics that may be covered, depending on your particular needs:

  • General physiology of lactation
  • The golden hour - how to get off to a good start
  • Typical newborn behavior
  • Feeding duration/frequency
  • Antenatal milk expression
  • Review of equipment you may need - breast pumps, bottles, pillows, etc.
  • Addressing past lactation challenges, particular health or lifestyle concerns that may affect breastfeeding
  • Inducing lactation

Virtual Lactation Consult

60 min

Icon representing virtual visit.Icon indicating 60 minutes.

Virtual consultations can be helpful in many situations. This may be the right option if you:

  • Have general questions regarding how feeding is going
  • Need a quick check in after your initial in-person visi
  • Are interested in inducing lactation
  • Need guidance on returning to work or school
  • Need help with pumping or weaning
  • Have an older infant who is starting solids or encountering a nursing strike
  • Experiencing lactation after infant loss

Some feeding challenges cannot be fully assessed virtually; as we uncover underlying issues, an in-person assessment may be recommended.

Each appointment may vary slightly based on the situation, but will generally include:

  • Evaluation of parent and baby’s health history
  • Addressing current concerns and challenges
  • Customized care plan based on your goals
