As an RN and IBCLC I can help with a wide range of things. I can provide prenatal or postnatal breastfeeding education. I can help work through issues like low supply, engorgement, slow weight gain, painful latch, nipple damage, mastitis, tongue-tie, oral restriction, oversupply, pumping, bottle refusal, or induced lactation.

What happens in a visit?
4
During a visit I will take a full history of mother and baby, ask about goals and current struggles. We will weigh the baby and then I will observe a feed, providing education and latch adjustment as needed. After the feed we will weigh baby again to get a gauge of how much milk baby took. With consent I will do an oral exam on baby and a breast exam on mom. Together, we will make a feeding plan that best suits you and your baby, You will leave the visit with a detailed care plan and follow up goals. I will ALWAYS take my shoes off at your front door, wash my hands prior to touching you or baby, ask permission before touching you or baby, and wear gloves for any hands on exam.
