I'm in need of a lactation consultant. If anyone can recommend one near Prince William area in Northern Virgina, can you please PM me?

I should have said anyone with LLL would be fine, too. Just trying to find someone locally.

I wish I could remember the name of the woman in the lactation dept at Fair Oaks, she was Catholic too. I had a horrible time nursing my 7th, the lactation consultant there discovered my daughter's high palate and helped me to train the baby to nurse properly. She was a life saver.

Not sure if that helps at all. Prayers to St. Therese's mother for you.

Where in PW? I have a Catholic friend in Nokesville who was a LLL leader in Fairfax before she moved.

Was it Marsha someone? She is the one who used to fit nursing bras. Jenn - I would give Tepeyac a call - I am sure they can recommend someone.

It's been three years now, I wish I could remember! She was very motherly and supportive.

Sounds like you are getting some recs. In general for anyone who is interested these are some on-line references for finding lactation help. Just enter your zip code or location.

Lactation Consultants

La Leche League Leaders

Thanks, MaryM. I tried a few times at the LLL site and it wasn't working, so I got frustrated and never returned.
