Lactation Consulting
At Summit Pediatrics, we're proud to offer the assistance of certified lactation consultants. These health professionals specialize in breastfeeding problems and have been trained to remedy milk supply issues and sore nipples, while simultaneously providing information on breastfeeding positions and beyond.
Our lactation consultants have undergone specialized training and completed various certification programs to ensure the well-being of parents who choose to breastfeed. On top of that, our medical professionals will confirm that local infants are receiving the proper nutrition. Be sure to explore the following section to learn more about the common issues suffered by parents throughout the Western New York area.
Breastfeeding can prove both physically and mentally difficult for new parents. Breastfeeding can also pose challenges for mothers who have had children prior to their most recent newborn, as the way milk supply can vary from pregnancy to pregnancy. Some children also have a harder time latching than others, which can become difficult for both new mothers, and mothers who have already had children. Thankfully, our experienced lactation consultants are constantly standing by to provide support new mothers throughout Niagara Falls, Lewiston, Lockport, North Tonawanda, Grand Island, Ransomville, Youngstown, Wheatfield, Pendleton, Wilson, Cambria, Buffalo, NY; and the surrounding WNY area.
Lactation consultants can help to provide you with a number of different techniques to increase milk supply, advice when it comes to the latching of the baby, and be there for you as a helpful hand while you navigate the best way to nourish your child. Many mothers feel disappointed in themselves if breastfeeding does not come as second nature, and at Summit Pediatrics, our lactation consults are here to remind you that every pregnancy and postpartum journey is different. No pregnancy will look exactly like another, therefore we want to be able to give comfort to mothers that no matter the route they have to take in order to feed their child is no better than another.
All you have to do is reach out to one of our certified representatives today. The team at Summit Pediatrics has made it easier than ever to schedule a consultation with our lactation specialists.
