What an exciting time for you and your family! Seeking education and information is such a great way to prepare you for your feeding journey before you even meet this sweet little being! It is truly so important to gather proper support in order for you to optimize ways to reach your feeding goals successfully. I would be more than happy to be your professional support to provide you with lactation and feeding care at the beginning and for the duration of your journey.
The Prenatal Consultation focuses on breastfeeding education and a general guideline for what to expect after the delivery of your baby. I hope to answer your questions and address any concerns you may have - whether this is your first time entering parenthood or if you're a seasoned parent with some lactation issues in your past experience. After this consultation, I will note your anticipated due date to set aside availability to support you with a consultation in your home (typically within a week) after the baby's arrival.
