Lactation Consulting Services We Offer:

Our pediatric lactation consultant is well-versed in handling a wide range of breastfeeding concerns, including:
  • Difficulty meeting regular weight milestones
  • Emotional and physical struggles related to breastfeeding, such as postpartum depression and pain after childbirth
  • Extended breastfeeding sessions
  • Infant refusal to breastfeed
  • Latching difficulties
  • Low milk supply
  • Newborns falling asleep quickly during feeding
  • Proper positioning issues

At Pillar Health and Kenosha Community Health Center, we strive to be your trusted pediatric care advisors. We understand the significant health benefits of breastfeeding for newborns in their early months of life. However, we also recognize that many new mothers may encounter challenges during their breastfeeding journey. That’s why our team of pediatric experts is dedicated to providing compassionate and specialized lactation consulting services to guide and support mothers through this crucial process.

Numerous studies have consistently shown that seeking the assistance of a certified lactation consultant can significantly enhance a mother’s chances of successful breastfeeding for at least six months or more. Rather than facing frustrating challenges alone, our proactive approach encourages new mothers to reach out to our experts from the very beginning of their breastfeeding journey.

At Pillar Health and Kenosha Community Health Center, we emphasize the importance of early intervention and timely support. When you schedule a consultation with our lactation consultants, rest assured that our approach is rooted in understanding and personalized care. To make the most of your appointment, we encourage open and honest communication about your breastfeeding experiences. Our consultants will thoroughly assess your breastfeeding techniques, adjusting and guiding you to ensure proper latching, sucking, swallowing, and breathing for your baby.

Breastfeeding is a deeply personal decision, and we understand the critical role it plays in the health and well-being of both you and your baby. Our certified lactation consultants are dedicated to providing the highest level of support, addressing your concerns, and empowering you to experience the joy of breastfeeding to its fullest potential.
