Lactation consultants ready to help with breastfeeding and formula feeding

Marshfield Clinic Health System Lactation Consultants share how breastfeeding can be a beautiful bonding experience for moms and babies. Our lactation services team is available for questions or concerns to support families early in the process, including questions on the best breast pump, breast milk storage, what to do when you are ready to feed formula, the proper feeding amount for a newborn and what to do if you have low milk supply. Often times, parents may feel guilt or shame for choosing to use a breast pump or formula feed their baby. However, there are situations where this choice works best for you. Our lactation consultants encourage breastfeeding but are there to support your goals and educate you on the feeding method best for your family.
