Getting settled in!

I love having a designated office in Mount Pleasant to work with all my equipment. I’m so excited about some new tools I’m adding to my tool kit. More tools mean more ways to support my clients with their goals.

New Scale

I recently got a brand new scale, that is sensitive to 2g. This means I can now do weighted feeds!! If you are wondering how much milk your baby is getting from breastfeeding, this gives us a good sense of it. Its important to remember that weighted feeds are just one moment in time. If your baby doesn’t transfer that much milk in the office, that may not have been a typical feed. Weighted feeds are just one piece of information that helps us figure out what an appropriate feeding plan might be. If you have concerns about how much milk your baby is getting, we can now make a good guess.

New Scale For Rent

Getting a new scale means I can put my old pediatric scale up for rent. My previous scale is great for getting trending weight. If you are concerned about your baby's weight gain, you can rent this scale and track their trending growth. It can be a great comfort to parents who are worried about their baby's weight gain. If you are in the Charleston, SC area or the Mount Pleasant area, and interested in renting a scale reach out today. You do not need to be a nurture and nourish lactation client.

Tummy Time Wedge

Another addition is my new wedge. This wedge is a great way to get better at tummy time for those babies still working on their strength. It’s also great for working on baby milestones. It’s one of the many tummy time tools I utilize to improve postural skills.

I feel like I have my dream tool kit for helping families with their breastfeeding, bottle feeding, baby milestone, and tummy time challenges.

If you need help in any of these areas, reach out today! I offer holistic infant feeding support.
