We came to see Phoebe when our son was 5 days old. He was not nursing well and losing weight. She suggested to us to supplement with a bottle and nurse him 2-3 times a day. This decision lead us to switch to bottles completely at 3 weeks old. We came with a goal to exclusively breastfeed and did not get enough support. Phoebe gave us a couple of exercises, but did not fix the latch or offer supplemental nursing methods when it was early enough to fix the problem. The recommendations did not change during the next 2 consultat... read more
As a first time mom there are a lot of questions that come with breast feeding. However, after working with Phoebe from Shelly Taft I have been able to nurse my baby with confidence and pump efficiently. Phoebe was very informative while also listening to my concerns. She ensured my baby had a proper latch and also gave me insight into how much he was consuming per feed. What was most intimidating to me as a first time mom was learning to pump and ensure I had enough milk for when my baby went to daycare. I didn’t know what ... read more
The experience with Shelly was life changing!! I made an appointment with her for my third child, he was struggling with some reflux issues, and wanted to see how we could help baby and also help decrease the time it took to lay him down for bed! Shelly immediately gave me some great tips, tricks, and exercises for the baby - and we made very quick progress. He also was hesitant with the bottle going back to work, however with the continued exercises, he was soon taking the bottle no problem and the pacifier that he previous... read more
Doctors told me baby wasn’t gaining enough and I needed to stop nursing and switch to formula. Not only did Shelly save my nursing journey, but also saved my baby by noticing all her oral ties that doctors missed completely!! Afterwards, helped with my baby’s bottle aversion that was stressful when it was time to go back to work. Also, she has such a positive social media impact that I direct all my new Mama friends to follow her! Definitely a GEM of an IBCLC!!!
Where do I begin here?! Third time mom but first time breast feeding and I can’t thank Shelly enough for her support and knowledge as I went through the three hardest weeks of being a mom to a tiny newborn! My baby was born on the smaller side and struggled with transferring milk which was causing her to lose weight. I was triple feeding around the clock and it was exhausting. Shelly put my mental health first while still fully supporting my goal of exclusively breast feeding. We came up with a plan together, she would check... read more
