Lactation consultants?

Does anyone know of a good one in the Howard County area?  I'm renting a scale from one but trying to get an appt with her is impossible and I really need some help.  Thanks!

  • Could you try the hospital where you delivered? I know ours said we could call if we needed anything. I am nowhere near How Co so that's all the advice I can give. Good luck!

  • I used Becky Nicodemus - she works at HCGH, but she's also an independent LC.  She was awesome and super supportive when I was having major issues right after DD was born.  She lives in columbia and makes house calls.

  • I LOVED Ann Faust.  She also lives in Columbia and also makes house calls (even on holiday weekends :)  She helped me immensely when my son was born and one of the things that I really liked about her services is that she will come out again to your house for no additional charge if you have the same problem within two weeks of her coming to your house initially.

    I have rented a scale from her.  She seems very unprofessional, to be honest.  She said she'd call Friday "between 8 and 9".  She called at 9:45 and asked if she could come over right that minute (she lives less than a mile from me).  Too bad DS had just finished eating.  Were you able to make an appt with her in advance?

    I had several appointments w/ her in advance.  She may have been late though - this was all in the haze of newborn feedings/no sleep, people in and out of my house.  I know she made a few unscheduled visits to my house just to check on me/us when she was nearby or late at night that she didn't charge us for, and called me on Christmas day when she was out of town and checked on us, etc.
