You'll learn evidence-based answers to all of your questions about feeding your baby, pumping, and so much more.

One-on-One Consultations
A one-on-one consultation is ideal for getting help with whatever challenges you are facing with breastfeeding, bottle-feeding or pumping. Wisconsin or Illinois consultations can be done in my new office in Lancaster, WI or in your home (travel fees may apply). Dubuque-area consultations are held at Statera Integrated Health and Wellness.

Pumping Assistance and Flange Fitting
Would you like to learn how to use your pump or check to make sure you are using it correctly? Are you having pain with pumping or low supply and would like to check your flange size? All of that is possible with this consultation!
1-hour visit $135

Phone Consultation
A phone consultation is for brief questions you may have about your breastfeeding experience. It is also good if you are not sure if you need an in-person consultation, but want to talk to a knowledgeable person and get advice.
30 minute phone call $50
All In One Package
Great baby shower gift! Includes 2.5 hours of prenatal breastfeeding education, an initial consultation after baby is born, and one week of follow up phone calls and texts.

Concierge Lactation Services
Breastfeeding can be challenging in the early weeks. Having an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant and experienced mom spend time at your home can be invaluable during those times. Becky will spend 4 hours at your house, covering at least two feedings and helping out with baby, answering questions, and providing reassurance about new parenting. (Travel fees may apply if farther than 30 minutes from Cuba City).
4-hour lactation support $500
Paying for Lactation Support
Coming soon! I am working on taking insurance in my Lancaster office and will have more details soon! When you see me for an appointment in Lancaster, Platteville, Dubuque, Galena, or anywhere in the tri-state area, you will pay me directly with card, cash or check and I will send you a superbill for you to turn into your insurance for reimbursement. If you see me at Statera Integrated Health and Wellness in Dubuque, IA, you may be able to use your insurance to pay for your lactation visit(s). Please reach out for more information.
The average family has 1-3 lactation consultations to help solve breastfeeding challenges and we only schedule what your family needs.
Something to consider when thinking about the cost of lactation support--the cost of 1-3 consultations would range from $165-$415. The average cost of formula feeding for one year is $1240-$2500+. This does not include the health benefits and savings that you and your baby receive when you are breastfeeding.
