1. When should I seek lactation support?

There’s no single “right” time. Whether you're pregnant and preparing for breastfeeding, experiencing challenges in the early days or weeks, or have longer-term concerns, lactation support can be beneficial. Prenatal consultations can help you prepare, while postnatal support addresses issues like latch difficulties, milk supply concerns, or pain. Even if things are going well, a consultation can offer reassurance and help you maintain a healthy breastfeeding journey. We encourage you to reach out whenever you have questions or need support. Early intervention can often prevent minor issues from becoming bigger problems down the road.

2. What qualifications do your lactation consultants have?

Our lactation consultants are highly trained professionals with extensive knowledge and experience in breastfeeding management. They hold certifications such as International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), which is the gold standard in the field. This means they've met rigorous requirements and demonstrated their expertise in helping families achieve their breastfeeding goals. They stay up-to-date on the latest research and best practices to provide you with the most current and effective support.

3. What if I need to supplement with formula?

Supplementing with formula doesn't mean you have to give up on breastfeeding. We can help you develop a plan that combines breastfeeding with supplemental feedings while protecting your milk supply. We can also discuss alternative feeding methods, such as using a supplemental nursing system (SNS), which can help stimulate milk production while providing your baby with additional nourishment. Our goal is to support you in whatever feeding choices you make.

Overcoming Breastfeeding Challenges: Lactation Support You Can Trust

We at Epione Health understand that becoming a parent is one of life's most significant transitions, filled with joy, love, and… a whole lot of questions! Especially when it comes to nourishing your little one. Breastfeeding, while natural, can sometimes come with its own set of challenges. That’s why we offer comprehensive Lactation Support – a safe and supportive space for you to navigate this beautiful, sometimes bumpy, journey.

Are you getting overwhelmed by too much information? You might be feeling uncomfortable or worried about whether your baby is getting enough. You're not by yourself. Many parents face similar hurdles, and we're here to help you every step of the way.

Why Lactation Support?

Think of lactation support as your personal breastfeeding guide. We're not just here to tell you what to do; we're here to listen, understand your specific needs, and empower you with the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions about your baby’s feeding.

We believe breastfeeding is a journey, not a destination. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. What works for one family might not work for another. That’s why our approach is personalized and tailored to your unique circumstances. We take the time to get to know you, your baby, and your goals.

Have you ever felt like you’re drowning in conflicting advice? It can be incredibly confusing! We cut through the noise and provide evidence-based information so you can feel confident in your choices. We'll help you understand the science behind breastfeeding so you can separate fact from fiction.
