COVID-19 Breastfeeding Support
Frederick Health is making every effort to support our breastfeeding families during this ongoing pandemic.
To support our families we have established a Breastfeeding Mother’s’ Support Group. This online event is led by a Frederick Health Lactation Consultant and held every Friday at 1PM. This virtual forum is a wonderful opportunity to obtain helpful breastfeeding advice, share concerns, and meet other new moms during this time of social isolation.
For more information and to receive an invitation to join this group, please email kdacey@frederick.health.
We are also offering 2 options for lactation consultations: by phone or through our secure online platform. Our secure virtual visits are designed to promote successful breastfeeding the best way we can during this time until we can see you in person.
