Prenatal Consultations

Preparing for your baby's arrival.

Prenatal Lactation Consultation:

Prepare for a Confident Breastfeeding Journey

Breastfeeding is a natural process, but it’s also a learned skill—for both you and your baby. A Prenatal Lactation Consultation is a personalized, one-on-one session designed to help you feel prepared, confident, and empowered before your baby arrives.

At Thrive Lactation & Wellness, we provide expert, evidence-based guidance tailored to your unique needs and goals. Whether you’re a first-time parent, have had challenges with breastfeeding in the past, or simply want to set yourself up for success, this consultation is a valuable step in your journey.

What to Expect During Your Consultation

During your individualized prenatal session, we will:

  • Discuss your breastfeeding goals and concerns
    Review what to expect in the early days, including the first latch, feeding cues, and milk production

  • Teach optimal positioning and latch techniques for comfort and efficiency

  • Learn how to establish a healthy milk supply from the start

  • Prepare you for common challenges and how to navigate them with confidence

  • Learn how to hand express, collect and store colostrum. Understand why doing this before your baby arrives has so many benefits.

  • Comprehend why the first hours and days after birth have such a significant impact on your milk supply and how to set you and your baby up for success.

  • Discover tips and tricks for a pain-free latch to get the best start on your breastfeeding journey.
