Common Questions

  • Breastfeeding Basics would be a great option for first time moms who are currently expecting and want to get off to a successful start with breastfeeding from day 1. It also would be helpful for new moms who are experiencing a rocky start with breastfeeding and want additional suggestions on how to improve their breastfeeding experience and overcome challenges, such as difficulty latching, engorgement, nipple pain, or delayed milk coming in. Additionally, moms who want a breastfeeding refresher or who experienced difficulty breastfeeding previously would also benefit from this online class.

  • Breastfeeding Basics was designed to be an on-demand class to provide expecting and new parents with the tools and resources they need to have a successful start with breastfeeding and overcome common breastfeeding challenges. Prenatal breastfeeding consultations, on the other hand, are one-on-one video calls with the IBCLC to create a custom plan for families and address any concerns, such as past difficulties with breastfeeding, known medical issues that may impact breast milk supply, and more.

  • Breastfeeding Basics comes with 1 year of on-demand access to the videos and resources, so that it can support you throughout your first year of breastfeeding.
