Thriving Joy’s Lactation Counseling Services
Complete Prenatal Lactation Education
Preparing for breastfeeding before the baby arrives is essential for new mothers. Lactation counseling offers comprehensive prenatal consultations that equip expectant mothers with the knowledge and confidence they need. These sessions cover what to expect during breastfeeding, techniques for a good latch, and strategies for building and maintaining milk supply.
Postpartum Support
The postpartum period can be challenging for new mothers, especially when it comes to breastfeeding. Common issues include difficulties with latching, low milk supply, and nipple pain. Our lactation counseling focuses on hands-on support during this critical time. Lactation counselors work closely with mothers to troubleshoot issues, offer practical solutions, and provide emotional support.
Personalized Lactation Assessments
We offer personalized lactation assessment. This evaluation includes a detailed examination of the baby’s oral motor function, breastfeeding techniques, and the mother’s comfort. Based on the assessment, a customized breastfeeding plan is developed to address specific challenges and optimize the breastfeeding experience.
Addressing Tethered Oral Tissues: Lip and Tongue Ties
Lip and tongue ties can significantly impact breastfeeding, making it difficult for the baby to latch properly and causing discomfort for the mother. Our Lactation counselors work with families to identify tethered oral tissues and provide strategies to improve breastfeeding. In some cases, they may refer families to specialists for further treatment.
Holistic and Family-Centered Care
At Thriving Joy, lactation counseling is part of a holistic approach that considers the needs of the entire family. The counselors not only focus on the mother and baby but also involve other family members in the process, fostering a supportive environment.
