Lactation Consultations
Breastfeeding can be beautiful. It can also be challenging. We can help.
Visits are usually free with health insurance.
We verify your insurance benefits before scheduling with us.
We desire for you to have a positive experience feeding your baby. Sometimes, breastfeeding brings challenges and that's why Jessica Bower became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). Moms need individualized, non-judgemental, evidence-based support to assist them as they breastfeed.
​
Private Lactation Consultations in your home are fully covered for you with most health insurances. We are in-network with BCBS, Anthem, Aetna, UHC, UMR, Cigna, and more. Complete the contact form below to get pre-approved for coverage in pregnancy. If your baby has already arrived, all attempts are made to do a visit in your home within 24 hours of completing the form.
In-Home Lactation Consultations:
Jessica comes to you in the comfort of your home for a comprehensive 60-90 minute visit. This visit includes assessments of you, your baby, and a feed at the breast (and/or bottle). Weight checks occur before and after feeds at the breast so that you know exactly how much your baby eats. A pumping session is assessed if desired. Jessica specializes in helping with these common challenges:
-
Painful feedings
-
Damaged nipples
-
Low milk supply
-
Over production of milk
-
Tongue or lip tie
-
Slow weight gain
-
Nipple shields
-
Pumping plans
-
Education, reassurance, and more

Feeding Plan:
We work with you to set up a feeding plan that works for your baby. Often times this is a plan to exclusively breastfeed. However, sometimes this plan includes options for supplementation. We are sure help create a plan that works for the benefit of the whole family. Partners are encouraged to attend lactation consultations to listen and to learn how they can help the mom and baby.
​
Travel Fees:
We do not charge travel fees to come to your home! If you are in the Triad or the area around the Triad, we are happy to come to your home to work with you and your baby.
