Bringing your body and your baby into a natural breastfeeding rhythm doesn’t always happen right away. You’re both learning about each other, and sometimes you just need a little extra support to help you both enjoy a calm and peaceful bonding experience.
And while breastfeeding is instinctual for babies, that doesn’t mean there isn’t a learning curve involved for a newborn just entering the world. Even with their natural root and latch reflexes, babies often need assistance from mom, and sometimes, mom needs a helping hand as well.
As both a board-certified pediatrician and breastfeeding and lactation medicine specialist, Dr. Christina Thuet is here to hold your hand and guide you on your breastfeeding journey. She recognizes every family’s feeding choices are unique and is committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care that honors your goals. Together, you, your support partner, and Dr. Thuet will create a holistic, personalized, and baby-centered breastfeeding plan that feels sustainable and comfortable to you.
The best thing you can do for yourself and your baby is give yourself grace and ask for the help you need!
We’ve been there, mom. When you’ve been feeding your baby round-the-clock, the last thing you want to do is pack up and head out. It’s hard enough to sneak in a shower or a quick nap between your baby’s non-stop snacking. That’s why Dr. Thuet and the Ella & Allo team make care simple and flexible—see us in person at our cozy office or connect virtually from the comfort of your home. Wherever you are, you’ll get the support and encouragement you need—no shoes, hair-combing, or tidying up required!
