Insurance
Breastfeeding doesn’t have to be a solo journey, and IBCLCs like myself are a vital part of a new parent’s care team. The experience can be as hard as it is joyful, and I hope that the more awareness there is around lactation support, the more parents will be able to access supportive, individualized care.
