Frequently Asked Questions
When should I see a lactation consultant?
Ideally within the first few days after birth, especially if you are experiencing pain, latch difficulties, or concerns about milk supply. Many families book a prenatal consultation as well.
Does insurance cover lactation consultants?
Under the ACA, most insurance plans cover lactation support. Many IBCLCs bill insurance directly. Check with your plan for coverage details.
What is the difference between an IBCLC and a lactation counselor?
An IBCLC holds the highest international credential in lactation care, requiring extensive clinical hours and a board exam. A CLC (Certified Lactation Counselor) has completed a shorter training program.
