Weaning plans
-
Comprehensive, one-on-one appointments to assess feeding, provide hands-on support, and create a care plan tailored to your goals.
These consults can be done if office or in the comfort of your home*, and a mini visit is also offered for those that just have a few questions or want a quick look at baby’s latch.
Follow-up visits are offered for continued support or new feeding challenges that may arise as baby grows.
-
A quick but important check—make sure your pump is working with your body (not against it).
We have a variety of sizes and flanges to trial, and together we can personalize your pumping plan to best fir you and baby’s goals and needs. -
A one-hour private session to help you prepare before baby arrives. Christy will walk you through what to expect in those early days and tailor the information to your unique needs, concerns, and questions.
