I've used Peggy Healy of The Art of Breastfeeding, www.artofbreastfeeding.com her email address is ____@____.com

She is absolutely wonderful and a year later, I still contact her for questions!

Peggy Healy is with The Art of Breastfeeding that was started by Cynthia Guzman, who started the LLL Humboldt Park chapter that is now the Lincoln Park chapter. They have a great web-site and you can find them if you google "the art of breastfeeding"

Peggy helped me at 7 weeks and my daughter weaned when she was 22 months and the only reason we made it that far, was because of Peggy!

Good luck, plus my insurance covered it. I had to submit the bill myself but they covered 80%. They should, they cover Viagra!

Talk to Barbara Hardin/Mothers Milk (her company) in Cicero. She travels and is worth the effort. She came to my house to help me when I had latch issues with my newborn and I found her fantastic. I'm still nursing 2+ years later...

I second the recommendation of Peggy Healy at the Art of Breastfeeding. She was so supportive and helpful when I needed it most. My son had spent time in the NICU and we were having trouble getting my supply up and getting him off of supplemental formula. She and Cynthia have answered numerous question for me over the last 9 months!
