Feeding your baby with confidence: Lactation and infant feeding in Eastern North Carolina
Love through breastfeeding / chestfeeding and lactation
Breastfeeding is supposed to be the most natural thing in the world, right? Not exactly…
All sorts of problems can occur: sore nipples, latching problems, clogged ducts, undersupply of breastmilk, your baby not gaining weight, and many more.
A lactation consultant can help you solve your breastfeeding issues so that you can feed your baby and create the bond that you crave.
Love through pumping or bottle feeding
Life gets crazy. You work. You might have other kids. Maybe, just maybe, you try to get some occasional sleep.
It isn’t going to work for everyone to feed their new baby directly from the breast but using the breast pump isn’t always plug-and-play… or plug-and-pump.
A lactation consultant can help to ensure that you’re using the machine correctly and efficiently and pain free.
Love through tongue tie revision assessment
Your baby can’t latch or swallow right? Those are signs of a potential tongue tie and/or lip tie.
After having a tie released, exercises need to be performed to prevent reattachment. Having an assessment to check on the progress of healing and verify the correct execution of exercises can go a long way toward ensuring long term success.
