Hello!
I had my LO in April 2013 and I have really struggled with BFing.... I had to use a nipple shield, etc. When I wanted to stop using the shield and work on my latch I contacted the LC... LONG LONG story short, I ended up seeing 4 different LC's, two pediatricians and an ENT specialist (because one of the LC's made me believe something was wrong with my LO.
Needless to say I was still struggling and the LC's were not as helpful. I finally found one that helped and was amazing! I wanted to post her # on here in case anyone struggles like I did. I feel like if I would've had her as the first LC (when my LO was 2 weeks) that things would've been so much better and easier.
I live on the East side but I think she will travel anywhere. Good luck! BFing is the hardest thing I have ever done! We are still working on it and I hope to get there but it is worth it!
Her name is Doris Christiansen and her website is https://www.pump-n-go.com/ it talks about a local support group but she does not run that any more. You just have to contact the phone number.
