Moms Love the Breastfeeding Center

So much, in fact, that they wanted to share their stories with you…

When I experienced a lactation issue recently, the front desk was able to get us in right away. We ended up seeing Val in lactation. She was incredibly efficient and helped me immensely. She spent so much time with me sharing her expertise. I attribute my continued success breastfeeding to her. She even called to follow up with me. Thank you for your awesome, dedicated staff!!

The BFC came highly recommended by my Bradley Method instructor. My son was born a little early & breastfeeding for us was challenging! Through multiple visits and phone calls, I received much needed support and techniques to aid in making breastfeeding successful for me and my baby. My son is now 7.5 months old and still happily breastfeeding. I would definitely recommend the BFC to all moms & moms to be. : )

The BF center is awesome! I’m a second time mom and originally didn’t plan to use it, but then I had some trouble with latch on our first night home from the hospital. I called and they got me in the same day and spent a ton of time with us and gave some amazing tips and helped with the latch issues. I think this resource is highly worthwhile.

I was beyond pleased with my experience at the Breastfeeding Center of Pittsburgh! The front office staff was responsive to my questions, accommodating to my schedule, and extremely welcoming on the day of my appointment. My lactation consultant was friendly, empathetic, and exceedingly knowledgeable. She laid many of my anxieties to rest, while also boosting my confidence in my breastfeeding success.

A truly unique aspect of the BFC is the incorporation of an appointment with a pediatrician, even if your child is not a patient of their affiliated pediatric practice. This multi-disciplinary approach makes for a comprehensive visit during which I felt truly heard. As a mother and a pediatrician, I highly recommend the BFC!

The Breastfeeding Center was an invaluable resource to me. As a first time mom, I was welcomed with open arms by Jill and the entire team. Breastfeeding can be quite daunting at first… am I producing enough? Is the baby comfortable? So many questions. Luckily, if you need to be seen by a LC or speak to one on the phone, The Breastfeeding Center is always there for you, and quickly! My goal was to nurse my baby boy for six months. But I loved it so much and it created such a bond, that we continued much longer than my goal.

Mothers and children need advocates, and the Breastfeeding Center is that for sure!

After having a difficult time nursing in the hospital, I was very discouraged and worried that I would not be able to successfully breastfeed my daughter. I’m a first-time mom and felt strongly about wanting to breastfeed. After my appointment at the center I left feeling hopeful and with a solid plan to help me along this journey. I would absolutely recommend making an appointment if you’re in need of help and encouragement!
