I will help you balance bottles and breastfeeding without losing your milk supply if you choose to combination feed, help you choose an appropriate bottle / nipple, teach infant-led / paced bottle feeding techniques, and help those babies who are rejecting the bottle
I will conduct a flange fitting, provide education on using your pump and how to pump efficiently. We will discuss safe milk storage and optimize your pump schedule to help maintain your supply while working
Using a highly sensitive scale, I will weigh your baby before and after a breastfeeding session to assess milk transfer. I will conduct an oral exam and address any findings that may be making it more challenging for your infant to effectively remove milk
We will explore possible causes of low milk supply and discuss ways to maximize your milk production. We will create a plan to regulate your milk supply to meet the needs of your infant
I will teach and help you implement proper positioning and latching techniques and discuss appropriate nipple care

As an IBCLC and mother of two babies who had very different infant feeding experiences, I combine clinical knowledge and lived experience to offer care that's both evidence-based and judgement-free. There's no one right way to feed your baby. Whether you're breastfeeding, bottle feeding, pumping, using donor milk, formula, or implementing a combination of methods, you deserve respect and clinically-supported guidance to support the mode that is ultimately going to help you and your baby thrive!
