Frequently Asked Questions


"I really am not producing enough milk for my baby, but I really want to breastfeed him. What can I do?"

If you want to have the closeness and benefits of breastfeeding, you might try a Supplemental Nursing System. This is a small bag of formula that hangs over your shoulder, with a thin tube that is taped to your breast. The baby takes your nipple and the tube into his mouth while nursing. He then gets whatever breastmilk you can produce, supplemented by formula. This is also a great way to nurse an adopted baby! Call a Lactation Consultant for more information.
