During National Breastfeeding Month in August, BACH is recognizing the role peer support and professional lactation services play in helping military families meet their breastfeeding goals. BACH Women’s Health Services provides comprehensive lactation support through two full-time International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLCs), both registered nurses. Support begins during the hospital stay, where breastfeeding families receive assistance from specially trained nursing staff in Labor and Delivery and the Mother Baby Unit. Patients interested in outpatient lactation services may self-refer for appointments before or after delivery. The MOM and ME Group is open to breastfeeding families every Monday from 1:00pm to 3:00pm in the Women’s Health Clinic without an appointment.
