Crib? Check. Diapers? Check. Breastfeeding plan? We’ve got you.

As you get ready to meet your baby, breastfeeding might not be top of mind — but when it is, the questions come fast:

  • What if I don’t make enough milk?
  • How do I get a good latch?
  • When should I start pumping?

 

A prenatal lactation consultation with an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) is your chance to troubleshoot, plan, and build a trusted relationship — just like you would with your pediatrician.

93% of parents said seeing a lactation consultant before birth helped them breastfeed successfully.

So whether you’re planning to breastfeed, combo-feed, or still figuring it out, a prenatal visit helps you navigate feeding with confidence.

I had a fantastic experience with The Lactation Network! Getting started was incredibly easy. I simply filled out a quick form to check if my insurance covered their services, and they got back to me really fast. Once I was approved, they connected me with a Lactation Consultant, and from there, the process was seamless…I highly recommend them to any new moms who are looking for support!

Absolutely EVERYONE who has any kind of goal to breastfeed should immediately book and arrange an appointment because they offer in-home visits!! The individual attention and comfort of one’s home where you don’t have to fuss with prepping and taking out a newborn is gone! Plus, they take care of contacting and communicating with your insurance for you in such a timely manner (for me it was within one business day)!

I highly recommend The Lactation Network, and feel so grateful that Ashley was able to come to my home so quickly after I filled out the preliminary questionnaire online. [She] was so informative, empathetic, and answered all the questions I had…and it was so convenient to be helped in my home. If you have any struggles with breastfeeding or questions, don’t just Google for answers! Reach out to The Lactation Network.

I had the best experience with Ann at TLN. She came to my house a couple days after my son was born. She addressed all my concerns in a knowledgeable and respectful way. She gave me a lot of great tips to be successful with my goals of breastfeeding. Even though this is my fourth child, she still gave me great insight. I highly recommend this service for all moms, new and seasoned.
