Breastfeeding Support

Breastfeeding is like a dance between a mother and her baby and takes time and practice for both to learn. While most babies naturally know how to breastfeed and what to do, sometimes problems occur both in the hospital and at home.

Sound Women’s Care has outpatient Lactation Consultants, with one-on-one consultation visits to assist moms during pregnancy and post partum. Consultation services are offered to every mom to promote successful breastfeeding practices and for those who need extra assistance with common problems such as:

  • Engorgement
  • Sore nipples / breasts
  • Positioning and latch-on
    difficulty / breast refusal
  • Low milk supply
  • Slow weight gain
  • Premature / special needs infants
  • Twins / other multiples
  • Moms with a history of breast surgery
  • Back-to-work issues
  • Pumping questions

For more information or to make an appointment, call 425-640-4810.

Most insurance, including medical coupons, can be billed to cover lactation consultations.
