Services

With Bliss Lactation, you will work with a certified lactation consultant who will help you meet your breastfeeding goals. Their work will start with a conversation where they will get to know you. They will ask about your health history, your delivery experience, and the struggles you might be facing while nursing. If you have any concerns about milk distribution, they will perform a breast exam. They will then observe a feeding and offer gentle adjustments to the latch and the positioning if needed. 

Your baby will be weighed both before and after this feeding. Your consultant will examine your baby’s tongue function and check for potential ties. If you are using feeding tools or devices, they will ensure you feel confident and guide you through any struggles. From there, they will create a plan so you can resolve your issues. These at-home consultations will last between 60-90 minutes, and they will give you plenty of time to ask any questions. They offer optional follow-ups.
