Virtual Pumping Consultations

 IBCLC help without leaving your home

The most challenging breastfeeding issues happen after hours or when you don't have the energy to leave the house. You can even get help during the witching period or during your postpartum period in the hospital.

PUMPING CONSULTS ARE FOR PARENTS WHO

  • Want to check in on the pump fit

  • Are exclusively pumping

  • Are experiencing nipple or breast/chest pain with pumping

  • Whose nipples look puffy after pumping

  • Experiencing frustration with pumping

  • Are not pumping enough to feed their baby

  • Who are not able to find a comfortable size through a mini session

  • Are going back to work

  • Feel their body is producing too much milk

  • Are unsure of how to use their pump or if they may need a new pump

  • Are using a wearble pump

WHAT HAPPENS IN A PUMPING CONSULT?

I LEARN MORE ABOUT YOU, YOUR BABY, AND YOUR LIFE

Through forms and conversation I learn more about you, your baby, and your life. A care plan only works if it meets your lifestyle and feels doable. This portion also includes learning more about you and your pumping needs. 

WE CHECK THINGS OUT

This is the portion where I measure your nipples, observe a pump session, and observe you try on a bunch of sizes. The best size will have the most comfort and be the best at removing your milk. 

WE MAKE A PLAN AND UPDATE THE PLAN

This last portion is where we use the info from the previous steps to come up with a plan. This plan will vary based on your pumping goals and how close you are to them already.
