We understand many women may be apprehensive or unsure at first about breastfeeding vs. bottle-feeding their baby. It’s normal to have many questions related to breastfeeding. Our doctors as well as lactation consultants are here to support you. We have partnered with two International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLC) who run a company named Bay Area Breastfeeding and Education (BABE) to help mothers who choose to breast feed be more successful. These consultants are in our clinic and are ready to assist new moms both before and/or anytime after birth!

Bay Area Breastfeeding & Education (BABE, for short) is committed to providing compassionate and quality prenatal and postpartum education and lactation assistance to women across the whole continuum of motherhood. Leah Jolly, Misti Ryan and Heather Williams are passionate about helping moms and babies through the normal course of breastfeeding as well as through the challenges.  They seek to empower you, the mom, to accomplish what your body was designed to do. Visit their website for more information about them and for many other breast feeding resources!  Click on the following link for great videos and tips to help you learn more about breast feeding, latch, pumping and much more! http://newborns.stanford.edu/ Another great source for a wealth of knowledge and answers to common questions is the La Leche League website.
