We know that breast/chest feeding and nursing can come with challenges, which is why we offer a Lactation Clinic led by Wendy Furumori, ND, LC. The clinic is organized in a group setting, but Wendy works with each parent individually. Wendy can help with latch and positioning, assess lip and tongue ties, make feeding plan recommendations, and answer any questions you may have regarding breastfeeding and/or pumping. We also weigh babies before and after nursing as necessary to evaluate milk transfer to determine how much breast milk baby is receiving per breast.

All chestfeeding and breastfeeding parents who exclusively pump are welcome from pregnancy through weaning! Our lactation team is here to help with any questions or demonstrations.

WHEN: Every Wednesday 10:30am – 12pm

WHERE: Nurturing Expressions West Seattle Boutique . Check directions beforehand.

COST: The cost of the group is $35.00*

WHO: Due to the size of this group, we ask that only the nursing parent and baby attend.

If you also need help with your breast pump, be sure to bring your entire pump, with flanges and accessories.

*The first admission is FREE if you received your breast pump from Nurturing Expressions and for expecting mothers. Fee waiver is also available for Apple Health clients.
