Lactation Support
What We Offer
Birth and Beyond offers infant feeding support, including personalized support from Briana Smith, MPH, IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant). Even when breastfeeding goes well, there can be bumps in the road and exhausting challenges that deserve the support of the gold standard IBCLC. Lactation support can be invaluable when combo-feeding by developing a plan to maximize on breast milk feeding, getting rest, and bottle feeding your newborn.
While lactation support is personalized, we recommend at least 3 sessions with an IBCLC. These can be done in person or virtually, with in-person being preferred.
Prenatal Consult: This is a personalized breastfeeding class, which includes a review of medical history and a breast/chest assessment.
Initial Postpartum Consult: Whether you need reassurance or are experiencing challenges, Briana will complete a full health and birth history for both the birthing parent and the infant. She will then provide a personalized care plan and follow recommendations.
Follow-Up Consult: If you need further assistance after your initial consult, Briana can follow up frequently in the initial days as you overcome challenges and truly settle in with breastfeeding your baby.
We’re looking forward to supporting you!
