Main Line Health provides prenatal
breastfeeding classes, as well as staff trained in breastfeeding to
assist breastfeeding mothers and babies during their hospital stay.
Lactation rounds are made routinely on each breastfeeding mother.
Lactation support is available during the baby's hospital stay, to all
breastfeeding mothers with babies in the NICU and on Pediatrics.
After discharge, we offer free Breastfeeding
Mothers Support Groups open to anyone in the community.
In addition, we offer a “Warmline” for moms to call. We offer free
follow up support by phone with our “Warmline.” Any new mothers can
call, leave a message, and a MLH Board Certified Lactation Consultant
will call you back. For support please call: 484-565-8075
Request an Appointment
Appointments are available with a Main Line Health System IBCLC at Paoli
Hospital for any mother experiencing breastfeeding challenges,
regardless of where her baby was born.
