Breastfeeding Journey

Outpatient Lactation Resources

Below is a list of resources you will find helpful if you are going home with your baby and need ongoing lactation support in the form of phone support, clinic appointments for face-to-face coaching, or in-home visits.  A Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) is the gold standard for lactation support to help you journey toward a satisfying breastfeeding experience.
