“After my son was born and admitted into the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and experiencing feeding challenges, I decided to go back to school to become a registered nurse and an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant to help other families in ways that I was helped, and especially in the ways that I was not supported. I am here to support you from making milk, increasing your milk supply, baby with slow weight gain or weight loss, oral restrictions, re-lactation, breast and nipple infections, pumping hacks, heading back to work and so much more. It's such an honor to be able to hold space for families during such a sensitive and intimate time. I have served over thirty-five hundred families so far in my career. I love educating, empowering and supporting families during their unique feeding journey. There are many ways to feed your baby and no wrong way to do it. After all, parenting is hard enough.... feeding your baby shouldn't be. I also wrote a book on breastfeeding called, 'THIS BOOK SUCKS feeding your baby shouldn’t' (TBS) which answers all of your feeding questions in a new way that is clear, fun, and inclusive. We take away the stress of feeding your baby by delivering evidence-based research with visually instructive and ‘laugh out loud’ art. TBS will guide the reader on how to latch and successfully feed the baby without judgement.”

Testimonial:

“Lori has been a huge help in my breastfeeding journey. I likely would've given up after the second week if it wasn't for her guidance. She also helped when I got mastitis. I love that she encourages partners to join the appointments and get involved in the feeding. Even if you have a great partner like I do, it's really helpful so you don't feel like you're taking it all on by yourself.”
