WHAT TO EXPECT:
When it's time for your in-home lactation counseling session, Ava will arrive to your home with her pink scrubs, crochet boobie model, nipple cream, baby wipes, syringes, pacifiers, medical gloves and breastmilk storage bags. You'll start by connecting with Ava. She'll learn all about you, your baby and your partner. You'll discuss struggles, successes, questions, and concerns and start getting answers! You'll then nurse your baby with Ava there for support, clarification, and adjustments. She will troubleshoot, educate, and reassure. After baby is full, Ava will clean up, discuss next steps, and head out the door! Shortly after, you can expect a detailed summary of your visit with Ava, outlining all of the information and education that you discussed in your visit. Forgot to ask a question or something came up between sessions? No worries! Ava will be available to you via text message between sessions!
