FAQ
Tailored Support for Breastfeeding Families
Browse answers to your top breastfeeding questions, making it easy to access expert guidance in moments.
Important note: Please do not worry about cleaning your home or making sure that your kitchen is sparkling before our appointment. I am coming into your sacred space, and the postpartum period is stressful enough without having to tidy up. I was also a new mother and lived through the postpartum clutter phase. Just relax and let me do all of the work for our appointment.
What services does Milky Waves Lactation Consulting offer?
I provide personalized lactation consultations, breastfeeding education, and emotional support for families.
Can I book a virtual consultation?
Yes, I offer virtual consultations to ensure flexible and accessible support wherever you are.
What should I expect during a consultation?
During a session, we’ll assess your concerns, provide practical strategies, and answer your questions. Upon scheduling an appointment, you will also be sent a “get ready for my appointment” handout that will go over all of your appointment details.
Does my insurance cover this service?
The Affordable Care Act says that insurance companies must provide certain preventive care for breastfeeding women. Unfortunately, there is a gap between how the insurance company interprets that and the coverage that is often provided. After each appointment, we will provide you with a superbill to submit directly to your insurance company for reimbursement. I also direct all of my families to the National Women’s Law Center Toolkit, which covers how to get reimbursement for lactation care and how to talk to your insurance company to provide the highest likelihood of reimbursement.
