New Mom Support

Our caring for you continues after your baby
is born.

Certified Lactation Consultations
Dupont’s internationally board-certified lactation consultants are specially trained experts whose goal is to enhance your breastfeeding experience. We recommend that you schedule an appointment with a lactation consultant if you are having problems nursing or if feedings are not going well at (260) 416-3240.

You will be paired with one of our consultants who will review any concerns you may have, observe you and your baby during feeding and offer guidance to ensure both you and your baby are getting the most out of breastfeeding. Feel free to call back with any questions or schedule an additional consult if problems are not resolved. Typical concerns include: increasing milk supply, resolving sore nipples, assisting with proper latching and poor feeders or NICU graduates.

If you feel you need additional guidance, a private lactation consultation may be scheduled to help ensure both you and your baby are getting the most out of breastfeeding. To schedule a consultation, call us at (260) 416-3240.

Fees
Consultations will be billed to your insurance. If you do not have insurance, payment is expected at the time of service. Our financial advisors will be happy to assist you.
