Moms Love the Breastfeeding Center
So much, in fact, that they wanted to share their stories with you…

Autumn

Our breastfeeding journey has been a challenging one. I am certain that without the support of the Breastfeeding Center, we would have given up. The care, expertise, and patience of the staff has been invaluable. I am so thankful for their willingness to listen to our goals rather than push an agenda. While life with a newborn is unpredictable, our breastfeeding consultant has provided a stability and positivity that I needed. She took the time to listen and focused on ways to improve my breastfeeding experience and our baby’s, showing us that breastfeeding did not have to hurt or be overwhelming. It is a wonderful thing to now enjoy and feel confident in our breastfeeding time. My husband and I highly recommend the Breastfeeding Center.

The Breastfeeding Center is an absolute gem of a resource for new and returning moms. I had feeding challenges with both of my boys, but with the education and encouragement from the Breastfeeding Center, it helped me reach that sweet spot of nursing where it feels easy, natural and blissful. Their support—whether in office, via phone or email—was always prompt, professional and full of compassion. Without The Breastfeeding Center, I would have missed out on once-in-a lifetime bonding experiences with my boys. I am forever grateful to the 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!
