Book Your Latched & Loaded
Breastfeeding Support Home Visit

Did you know that most women only see the hospital provided lactation consultant for 15-20 minutes to help with breastfeeding?

In these days of short staffing many people are lucky if they see a hospital LC at all. This is nowhere near enough time to learn all of the ins and outs of breastfeeding. Most Mama’s transitional milk starts replacing colostrum between days 2-5 which also coincides with most Mams hospital release date. It's common to experience painful engorgement or latching issues in those first few days. So dealing with a lactation professional is crucial during the early days postpartum.
The first few days postpartum can play a major role in determining the success of your breastfeeding journey. We know no one wants to get themselves and a baby dressed and head to an office. That's part of the reason we offer Home Visits to metro-Atlanta mothers.
Having hands-on support to relieve engorgement, assist with positioning, hand expression, weight concerns, oral restrictions, etc are great reasons for booking such an intimate meeting. As we want to ensure you have a professional in your corner helping you navigate this wonderful and natural experience of motherhood.

For individuals who live within 45 minutes of Atlanta, you are within our In-Home Visit service area. The Latched & Loaded Home Visits are perfect for you to have in-person contact with a specialist that can be in your corner during your breastfeeding journey:

    Make sure you have completed your intake form and consent form.
    Write down any questions that you have and keep them handy for our appointment.

At your scheduled appointment time a specialist will arrive promptly at your home. Upon arrival and greetings, shoes will be removed and we’ll ask you where you’d like to conduct the meeting within your home. During our 1 hour session we’ll assess your needs and help with the problem or questions you have. If you have other family members present, we will ask you if you’d like to have them present during the meeting, because we approach breastfeeding from a community standpoint. Handouts will be provided. Once we have addressed the concerns and answered questions, we’ll assist with the hands-on needs of the appointment; latching, positioning, pumping, massaging, baby wearing, weighing baby, etc.
We’ll assess your eating and drinking habits and educate you on the importance of taking care of yourself during the postpartum period. I always remind my clients that they can’t pour from an empty cup. At the conclusion of the meeting, we always go over everything we discussed in our meeting, I'll ask if you have any additional questions and let you know about the notes that will be available later that day via email.

Here is how we have helped ensure breastfeeding success.

    I have been following Loyal Lactation on Instagram for months as I prepared for my breastfeeding journey. I learned so much from her page and loved the videos and education provided. This is my 3rd breastfed child, but I was having latch issues and feeling very engorged, so I scheduled an in home visit. Sterling was so warm and welcoming, I instantly felt very comfortable as if I'd known her for years! She helped my baby improve her latch and taught me how to massage and workout the engorged feeling, and I had immediate relief. I'm now set to have a successful breastfeeding journey and highly recommend her services. You will not be disappointed as it is beyond worth it. Thank you so much Sterling!!!Aimee Escalante04/2023

    Sterling has been supporting our family since my 10 month olds first week of life. Each check in with her reassures us that we are on the correct path with our son. She has guided us through first latch, tongue tie, flange sizing, pumping, and now weight gain. She has equipped us with so much knowledge and sound guidance. I was very discouraged with my sons weight progression from 6 months to 10 months and almost on the brink of giving up on breastfeeding due to the pediatricians inaccurate opinion. Sterling gave us realistic expectations of his weight gain considering our lifestyle, size and his age. She also weighed him, he has actually gained a pound and some ounces since his last pediatrician visit!Maya H. Muneer06/10/2023
