Pasadena Lactation Consultant?

[phurryjenn]

Does anybody have any recs for a Lactation Consultant in the Pasadenaish area? I have found a bunch online, but I'm hoping to find one that I hear good things about not just reading from their own info!

I don't need one right away, but am expecting a new LO pretty soon and would like to have a # on hand just in case!

Good luck! Also, do go to a La Leche League meeting before you have your baby:

I would also check out The Pump Station. They are in Santa Monica, Westlake, and Hollywood. I am in the Pasadena area, and drove to the Hollywood one regulary for supplies and support group meetings. I cannot say enough good things about Corky (one of the LC's there). She is fantabulous to work with.

Babies, bellies and bosoms in Montrose has a great lac consultant there... it was a few years ago that I went in, but she was great.

i would also suggest giving the breasfeeding center at huntington hospital a call.  they were extremely helpful with both of my children.

We used Nadja Catano pretty recently - she was GREAT, and reassuring, and my son loved her and climbed into her lap and wouldn't leave. Highly recommended!
