Giving birth at Motherhood or Cloudnine Hospital in Bangalore ensures top-notch maternity care, but what happens after delivery? While these hospitals offer basic lactation support, many parents find that personalized lactation care provides deeper, ongoing guidance tailored to their unique needs.
Hospital Lactation Support: What’s Offered?
Both Motherhood and Cloudnine provide in-hospital lactation consultations, typically including:
Initial breastfeeding assistance after delivery
Help with positioning and latch
Basic guidance on milk supply and pumping
However, hospital-based lactation visits are often:
Short & Limited – With high patient loads, consultants may only have a few minutes per session.
One-Size-Fits-All – Advice is often general and may not fully address complex challenges like low supply, tongue-tie, or painful latch.
Unavailable Post-Discharge – Once you leave the hospital, continued support may be difficult to access.
Why Choose Personalized Lactation Care?
A private lactation consultant (IBCLC) offers one-on-one, in-depth care beyond the hospital walls, ensuring long-term breastfeeding success.
Extended Support: In-home or virtual sessions at your convenience, with follow-up care as needed.
Deeper Problem-Solving: Guidance for issues like low milk supply, painful latch, pumping strategies, and feeding multiples.
Customized for Your Goals: Whether exclusive breastfeeding, combo-feeding, or returning to work, care is tailored to you.
Emotional & Mental Well-Being: Many new moms feel overwhelmed—private lactation support includes emotional reassurance.
When Should You Consider a Private Lactation Consultant?
You feel rushed or confused after hospital guidance.
Your baby is struggling with latch, weight gain, or excessive fussiness.
You experience pain, engorgement, or supply issues.
You’re navigating NICU stays, tongue-tie, or preterm birth.
You need help transitioning back to work with pumping strategies.
