Breastfeeding Support

Testimonials

Emily and Baby Zoe There I was, overwhelmed with joy and excitement at the sight of my beautiful baby girl! For me, breastfeeding was harder than labor, so having someone like Erin by my side was an amazing support. Speaking with Erin was probably one of the warmest and comforting support I received! Through conversations with Erin, it really registered (when I needed to hear it the most) how ENOUGH I am for my daughter. Thank you Erin for all the support you have given me on my journey as a mother.	Kayla Lu and her Amazing Mama, Iris I contacted Erin for breastfeeding support before I had my first child in June 2014. I had a 100 questions, about to be a first time mom and she responded to all of them with patience. She did research for me and sent me resources to answer my questions. I was so nervous while breastfeeding she came over and assisted me. Watching my baby latch, helping me with positioning and helping me with the latch. Erin was so kind, patient, reassuring, positive, caring, I could not ask for anything more.	Francesca and Miles I reached out to Erin when my son was about 3 months old and I was returning to work. I was very anxious about how I would maintain exclusive breastfeeding. Erin was so great with giving me a pumping schedule, explaining pace-feeding to me, and encouraged me to stand my ground with my babysitter about how much milk my son should be receiving. When his weight gain was slow and steady, she reassured me that he was flourishing and doing well and to not be discouraged.
Baby Dylan and Mama Limary Erin came to the hospital to give me some tips and she was available via phone and text message whenever I had questions. She suggested I look into my sons lip and tongue tie when our breastfeeding journey never really took off. Once I did that, everything changed. He became a pro and I went on to successfully breastfeed my son for a solid 6 months. No judgments or pushiness. Just her knowledge and her passion came through.	Erica and Baby Jack Over Labor Day weekend I was suffering with a really bad breast infection. I was in touch with my obgyn, but wanted to speak to a lactation counselor because I was in excruciating pain. I called Erin over the holiday weekend and she was more than happy to talk to me and give me strategies to help relieve the pain. With her help, I was able to make it through the weekend!	Alyson and Kayla Bella I had not been able to breastfeed my first two children due to pain and I didn't have much hope for my third. I wasn't even sure how hard I would try. Erin provided me with such great support and advice on new things to try. She provided a number of resources, ensuring that I knew about all the options I had and that I had all of the information necessary to make my decision whether to continue trying to breastfeed since she knew how important it was to me. I am very grateful for Erin's support.
Sara and Sweet Lucy When I contacted Erin, I was pregnant with my second child. There was a four year gap between breastfeeding my first child and our new baby girl.I have used Erin's advice from what to pump and buy this time around to how much my daughter should be eating while we are apart. Erin has helped me with questions about rotating my freezer supply and been a resource for reassuring a hormonal new mommy that I am actually doing a good job.	Megan and Baby Vera Having needed a surrogate to have my baby yet still wanting to breastfeed, I reached out to Erin to find out how I could go about inducing lactation and where I could get support in learning to breastfeed. She was quick to flood me with resources and encouragement. Now having successfully done both of those things 7 months later, I still contact Erin for advice in regards to breastfeeding my seven month old daughter. I am very grateful for Erin!	Michelle and Little Miss Eve Eve was very uncomfortable after nursing. After trying a few things on my own with little relief, Erin helped me to troubleshoot. Erin suggested changing the position I was feeding my daughter in. Things definitely changed for the better. It was not only relief for Eve, but for my husband and I as well. Erin followed up multiple times to check in, which I greatly appreciated. Erin is very knowledgable and I find comfort in knowing that I can always reach out to her for her help and guidance.
