Prenatal Education
Maybe this is your first time planning to breastfeed. Or, maybe you’ve breastfed before, but it didn’t go as you expected. Either way, you’re in the right place. Welcome.
What is the purpose of a prenatal counseling session?
This is a great time to focus on YOU, before baby arrives. However you want to tackle your infant’s feeding, I’m here to answer all the questions you may have. We will discuss pros/cons, the most current evidence, take a look at your support system, and provide general breastfeeding knowledge and helpful information.
What does a prenatal session look like?
It starts with a thorough intake form. This will allow me to review your history and concerns, and come to our appointment as prepared as possible. During the appointment, you ask ALL the questions you can think of! (I find it most helpful to have a running list of them. As you think of something, add it to the list) We will discuss your birth plan, and how to get you off to a great start.
…And then?
I’ll write up a concise visit summary, include pertinent charts or diagrams, and add in plenty of great resources. If you have more questions before your baby arrives, I’m available via email.
