Infant Feeding Consults
— Initial In-home Lactation Visit
Although each consult is flexible to accommodate for your individual needs, you can expect these to occur at your visit:
infant and maternal medical history
infant oral assessment
breast exam (if needed)
assessment of feeding
pre and post feed infant weight check (if desired)
I approach each lactation visit with the understanding that every family has different needs and that you will determine the best path forward for you and your baby’s feeding experience. We’ll work together to set a plan that supports those goals. This initial visit typically take 1.5-2 hours.
— Follow-up Visit
When follow-up visits are desired or become necessary, we will walk through many of the same assessments that occur in initial consults and reevaluate how existing feeding plans have been going. We can expect to spend 1-2 hours together.
— Telehealth Visit
In some cases, telehealth visits are an ideal option. Please contact me to discuss if a virtual appointment will work for you.
— Prenatal Visit
Prenatal lactation education can help ensure a positive breastfeeding experience. Schedule an appointment with me to learn about basic lactation education including:
basic physiology of lactation
normal infant behavior
steps to take to promote a successful start to breastfeeding
Bring your questions for a truly individualized educational experience.
Working with The Lactation Network I accept these insurance providers,
as well as plans utilizing MultiPlan and PNOA.
