Lactation Consulting

Skilled, nurturing IBCLC support.

jackson mississippi breastfeeding support

Gentle, nonjudgmental, patient, and encouraging help to feed your baby.

Sometimes breastfeeding is harder than we expect it to be — I’m here to help with that in a calm and supportive way. It’s OK to be emotional about it.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Appointments typically last 60-90 minutes and may include:

  • Discussing your baby’s birth

  • Observing a full feeding

  • Breast assessment

  • Assistance with latching and positioning

  • Evaluation of feeding and troubleshooting difficulties

  • Assessment of supply issues

  • Oral evaluation of baby

  • Evaluation of milk transfer

  • Flange fitting and pumping strategies

  • Identifying feeding goals

  • Individualized care plan to help you meet your goals.

WHERE WILL MY APPOINTMENT BE?

Most of my appointments are in-office. Occasionally I offer telehealth if your insurance permits it. My office space is located at 129 Executive Drive, in Madison. Come in the front doors of the building; my office is the first door on the right, in front of the stairs. Come in the small waiting room.

I am not offering home visits at this time.

WHAT ABOUT PAYMENT?

Insurance — Your insurance may cover your lactation visits at no cost to you, either through Wildflower (for Cigna plans) or The Lactation Network. Both cover 6+ lactation visits at no cost to you.

Cigna customers can get coverage approved by clicking on the Wildflower link below; it is typically near-instant approval.

Self Pay — $125 initial visit; $100 follow up visits. Cash/Venmo due at the end of the visit. Superbills can be provided to submit to insurance for reimbursement; however, this is not a guarantee of reimbursement.

FSA/HSA Cards — I can accept your FSA or HSA card at the self-pay rates.

Medicaid — Discounted rates for Medicaid: $25 initial visit; $20 follow up visits. Cash/Venmo due at the end of the visit.

Tricare — Because I grew up as the child of a US Navy service member, and was also a US Navy spouse for 13 years, I have a special place in my heart for those who serve our country. I offer a reduced rate for Tricare clients of $50 initial visit; $25 follow up visits.

HOW DO I SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT?

Appointments can be scheduled by emailing me at erinmattinglyibclc@gmail.com, or texting me at (910) 581-0800. Texting works better than a phone call for me— my phone is always on silent and calls get missed!
