Breast Pumping Support Services
Trouble with your wearable? Exclusive pumping and wanting to make it better? We can make breast pumping not suck! Read on to see how we can help.
Flange Fitting Services
Are you experiencing discomfort, low milk output, or other issues with your breast pump? You’re not alone. The fit and type of pump flange play a crucial role in ensuring a comfortable, effective, and efficient pumping experience. In fact, about 40% of pumping parents are using flanges that don’t fit properly. Even if you’ve been sized before, changes in your body and variations between different pump styles, including wearables, can impact flange fit.
Our International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLCs) specialize in breast pumps and flange fittings. A professional flange fitting session can help alleviate issues and enhance your pumping experience. During your appointment, your provider will conduct a breast exam, take precise measurements, and assist you in pumping to assess the comfort and effectiveness of various flange types and sizes.
Personalized Pump Selection
If you need assistance choosing the right pump to purchase or rent, consider scheduling a Pumping Support visit. During this session, your provider will review your medical history and breastfeeding goals to recommend the best pumps for your needs. For a hands-on experience with different pumps, we encourage scheduling an in-person visit.
Optimize Your Pumping Experience
While breast pumping may seem straightforward, it can come with a learning curve. We assist numerous families with a wide range of pumps each year and are eager to share our expertise with you. In a Breast Pumping Support visit, we will assess your needs and goals, and you’ll have the opportunity to pump during the session. We’ll help you adjust settings for better comfort and milk output, offer product recommendations, and, in some cases, let you try out different pumps.
This visit is ideal for you if:
You want your breast pump tested for effectiveness
You’re preparing to return to work and need a pumping plan
You have a pump but need help with its operation
You’re considering purchasing a second pump
Your current pump causes discomfort despite having the correct flange size
You’re not achieving sufficient milk output
Let us help you find the perfect fit and optimize your pumping experience.
Virtual Pumping Support - A Virtual Pumping Support visit is a private visit with an IBCLC to help you learn how to pump comfortably and effectively. This visit is a great opportunity to learn how to assemble your breast pump correctly, find strategies for making pumping more manageable, assess your current pumping routine, or troubleshoot common problems with breast pumps and pump parts. Our providers have extensive knowledge about flange sizing and can provide general recommendations but this visit does not include a professional flange fitting. Virtual Pumping Support visits are 60 minute virtual appointments.
