These consults are private and between 1.5 - 2 hours long. During this consult, we evaluate any previous breastfeeding experience and medical history to develop an individualized lactation care plan.

How to induce lactation
Getting ready for the best start
Personalized alternative plans when things don't go well
What's normal and not, and red flags
