Breastfeeding FAQ's
When should I reach out for breastfeeding support?
As soon as you experience any struggles with breastfeeding, or see any signs that your baby is not eating well, you should make an appointment. Reaching out at the first sign of concern can help prevent more severe issues from developing, such as bleeding or cracked nipples, mastitis, or supply issues.
Is nipple pain normal?
While some discomfort is common when breastfeeding, it should not be painful. If you are experiencing any sharp pain, pinching, or bleeding, this is a sign of latch issues.
How can I meet other breastfeeding moms?
Our Breastfeeding 101 class is a great way to connect with like-minded moms and prepare for your breastfeeding journey. This class is offered in-person and online. Also, you can watch our social media for our “Milk & Cookies” support group.
