What Moms Say
I am a first time mom. I knew I wanted to breastfeed, and I had read books
and posts online in preparation. When my daughter was born, I was overwhelmed with how to breastfeed her. You think some motherly instinct is suppose to sweep over you, but the truth is you need some practical advice and support. Patty came in and provided both. She gave tips on positioning and latching and also pointed out some signs and cues to look for when my daughter was hungry or full. More than anything, she was there to reassure me that my baby was getting the nutrition she needed and to troubleshoot with me, when I had concerns. If it wasn’t for the help and support Patty gave me, I’m not sure I would still be breastfeeding my daughter today. But, I am, and my daughter is healthy and growing stronger each day. There are so many incredible benefits to breastfeeding, but especially initially, it’s natural to need support and advice to make breastfeeding a reality. Patty is an amazing lactation consultant, and I highly recommend her to handle any breastfeeding issues or concerns you might have with your baby. Sarah Houghton, Sheridan, WY |
"Patty helped me overcome several issues I had when my son was born. He was a small baby who had trouble latching from the start and I ended up sore and exhausted -- ready to give up several times. Patty helped me learn how to position him correctly, compensate for his little mouth, and gave me the confidence I needed to make it through a very trying first month. If it wasn't for her pragmatic advice I likely would have given up. Nursing has only gotten easier since that time and we are still going strong at 7.5 months! I would highly recommend any new Mom to use Patty's services."
