Lactation Appointment

What is a lactation appointment?
This visit will give you individual expert breastfeeding help. 
If you are having any challenges in meeting your own breastfeeding goals, whatever those challenges may be then we are here to help you!

 

Your first lactation appointment after birth we only do as an in person home visit, instead of virtually, but can do future follow-up visits virtually if preferred. If you think you would be better served with a virtual visit initially please feel free to text or call 530-287-8222.
