Momentum Lactation

Breastfeeding support to include lactation consultation, support group, and classes. Louis Metro Area. Most clinical consults are covered by insurance.

Momentum Lactation was founded in 2017 with the goal of providing greater access to breastfeeding support in the Edwardsville and St. Alisa worked in the community in a hospital setting for many years and realized that many Mothers needed more support and information after they leave the hospital to be successful on their breastfeeding journey. With decades of experience supporting and educating new mothers through various modalities, and an expert in clinical lactation, she founded Momentum Lactation to include needed access and support missing in the hospital and community. Alisa works with physicians and other care providers in the community and has built a strong referral network in the area for a variety of breastfeeding and post partum issues and support. Families can now receive office, home or virtual visits in the early days at home, as well as a community of other moms in our monthly Breastfeeding Mom’s Meet Ups. Common types of issues addressed include, low milk supply, painful latch, baby weight loss, pediatrician concerns related to feeding or growth, getting a back to work plan and just managing the breastfeeding routine and lifestyle. We look forward to serving you to help you meet your breastfeeding goals along your personal journey.

Conversations about breastmilk access can feel emotional and complex — and they deserve nuance.

Families navigate feeding decisions within real constraints: supply challenges, financial barriers, access to care, cultural values, and community support.

This series is meant to clarify the landscape so families can make decisions with transparency, agency, and support.

Whatever choices a family makes, they deserve accurate information, respect, and care along the way.

Come laugh, learn, and leave feeling way more confident than this baby looks.

🚨NEW CLASS ALERT! 🚨

The baby arrives… and suddenly you are reborn too 🤍

So much care is poured into birth, and then the world expects you to bounce back, but postpartum isn’t something to “get through” - it’s something you deserve support in.

This is your reminder that you matter in the after.

Rest, recovery, and real support belong in the story too.
