Every breastfeeding woman deserves a lactation consultation with a highly skilled lactation consultant.
Are you experiencing breastfeeding difficulties but have no where to turn? Perhaps you have unanswered questions. Consultations in person are the preferred way to help resolve breastfeeding problems. However, many women around the country and world do not have access to lactation consultants in their area. I network with lactation consultants around the world and will help put you in touch with someone in your area. When no one is available in your area or your breastfeeding problems are persisting in spite of working with lactation specialists, then a Online Lactation Consultation™ can be extremely helpful.
"Debbie at The Newborn Baby helped my son and I breastfeed effectively and without pain after 12 weeks of struggling. Even though we had to "virtually" cross the country - we live on the West Coast - it made such a difference to receive her knowledgeable advice!" Read more...
Debbie Page offers 60 minute preliminary consultations to evaluate your individual situation and help you decide your best course of action. You may decide you want the consultation to continue beyond the initial 60 minutes. I will have an additional 20 minutes reserved. Will you need to have an additional consultation? At the end of the consultation, we will determine that together.
Skype allows us to see each other. At the beginning of the consultation, I want to hear your breastfeeding story. Your unique situation will determine the next step. I will not be able to weigh your baby which is an important part of every breastfeeding evaluation. You can weigh your baby as needed at your baby's doctor's office.
Concerns I can help you with during a Online Lactation Consultation™:
- your baby's weight. Please have your baby's weights available for me. When necessary, I will recommend that you have your baby weighed frequently at your pediatrician's office unless you have a baby scale.
- nipple pain
- sleepy baby
- fussy baby
- low milk production
