All my consults are done either virtually or in the comfort of your home or my home office. During our session, lasting at least two hours, my focus is on addressing your immediate questions or challenges and further developing your parenting confidence. As part of assessing what's going on, I watch you feeding your baby. Together we'll find ways to make breastfeeding more comfortable and effective. There is no one RIGHT way to breastfeed. It is a non-verbal dialogue between you and your baby.
Among topics we may cover:
understanding, improving, & refining latch
encouraging supply & confidence with hand expression
exploring a variety of feeding positions customized for you & baby
learning to know when baby is actually drinking while at breast
the meaning of baby's gestures & movements
learning to respond skillfully to your baby
suggestions for improvements & follow-up support
