The Problem
The Lactation Consultant in the hospital was able to help me, things were going well. When we got home everything changed and I didn’t know what to do or how to find help. Web searches left me with more questions and worries. I know there must be a better solution for us!

Client Feedback
William C.
We reached out to Ame from Milk and Cookies Lactation 1 week postpartum with our first baby. We were worried our baby had problems latching, or feeding effectively. Ame set our minds at ease, and gave us a simple strategy to follow. One thing we really appreciated about Ame is that she didn’t make us feel bad when we expressed doubts about breast feeding and possibly wanting to exclusively pump. She also kept her line open in case we had questions or concerns, and followed up with us promptly. Ultimately, her help and advice helped us navigate this hurdle as first time parents, and gave us the confidence to continue our breastfeeding journey. We definitely recommend her and are so happy we reached out.

I have been working with Ame on nursing with my second child and she’s been an absolute blessing! She’s knowledgeable, supportive, and exactly the person you want in your corner during the stressful weeks of early postpartum and the newborn stage. Not only is she highly professional but has the calm and caring presence of a long time friend. If you are considering lactation support, look no further. I cannot recommend her enough!

Ame came in to help us with breastfeeding. She was immediately reassuring that needing to supplement and introduce a bottle didn’t mean that breastfeeding was not possible. She worked with us on correct positioning and shield sizing. It was a night and day difference. He started latching and we were able to start breastfeeding that day! She has been there for me to answer all my questions about normal sleeping and eating patterns. Ame has made me feel confident that we are doing a great job breastfeeding and we will just keep growing and improving!

Ame was an amazing help when I was struggling with mastitis. She provided guidance to treat the mastitis but also gave me lots of recommendations as an exclusively pumping mother and followed up with me multiple times. Highly recommend her as she's a joy to work with and she has seen it all in her 18 years of experience.

After weeks of struggling to nurse and our baby not gaining weight, we scheduled an appointment with Ame who was able to help me get into a more comfortable position, ensure she was nursing long enough on each side and gave me peace of mind that it wasn’t a latching issue or other potential medical issue. Ame was phenomenal and super sweet and personable and made me feel comfortable. Our girl went from 9 pounds to 13+ pounds in less than a month!!
