Breastfeeding is natural, and so is walking, but we don't start out just knowing how to do it. Even moms who have breastfed before can need help; each baby is different.

It all starts with education. Families who have had prenatal consults with me have said that the information that they received helped them know what to expect and "prevented the anxiety of the unknown". I also work with families to offer regular check-ins so that we can discuss what to expect as the baby grows. Breastfeeding takes practice, and it can be a lot of work, but it should never be painful. Pain is one of the number one reasons that moms quit breastfeeding before they are ready. The good news is that there are solutions!

Finding a solution that works for your family is often more involved than adjusting a latch, changing a hold, or just switching feeding methods. It involves getting to know you. Discussing long-term goals and involving your support system. Dads, grandparents, and other caregivers are encouraged to be part of the visit. By the end of the visit, you will have a feeding plan, your questions answered, and real solutions to your infant feeding concerns.
