Breastfeeding your baby can be a challenge, especially in the beginning!  I want to help you succeed.  I will meet with you in your home to assess what's going on and solve any problems you might be having.  We will begin by getting to know each other and your birth story.  I will be with you while you breastfeed and offer my suggestions and information as it applies to you and your baby.  I can usually see you the same day or the next day.  Most first appointments take 1 to 2 hours and include follow-up phone calls and emails as needed. Follow-up appointments can also be arranged and are usually shorter. 
 
Don't wait to ask for help or get reassurance.  The earlier breastfeeding becomes easy and comfortable, the more successful and confident you will be.
