Breastfeeding Support Group & You

We realize that for many women breastfeeding can be challenging. That's why at A Mother’s Haven, we offer a breastfeeding support group for all mothers who are nursing their baby and have any questions, need information, or want the camaraderie of other breastfeeding moms.

The group is facilitated by a highly knowledgeable Certified Lactation Consultant, who has breastfed her own children and has years of experience working with mothers and babies.

The Breastfeeding Support Group meets at our boutique in Encino on Tuesdays from 10am. This informative drop-in group is only $10 per visit.

If you have any questions or breastfeeding problems you need help with, please call us at (818) 380-3111 or email info@shopthehaven.com. We can help you figure out if the Breastfeeding Support Group or a one-on-one Lactation Consult is best for you and your baby!

Here are just a couple of our testimonials...

“Thanks for being there for me during Lily’s nursing strike. Your kind words and advice were comforting as I figured everything out. I appreciate your support so much!”
Jessica Thompson

“We would have never been successful at breastfeeding without your help and support. We appreciate so much the service you provide.”

How do I clean my Medela pump tubing?

We get a lot of moms coming in asking about cleaning their Medela breastpump tubing , whether for the Symphony hospital-grade rental pump , the Medela Freestyle pump or for the personal-grade Pump In Style Advanced breastpump. One thing to note, milk shouldn't normally be going into your Medela tubing when you pump.  If you see milk coming back into the tubing, make sure of two things: 1. Your pumping bottles are upright while you're pumping and 2. Your valves and membranes are attached fully, and that they don't have any holes or cuts.  Only air is supposed to go through the tubes. Every time after you pump, disconnect (and clean) all of your pump parts, but leave the tubing connected. Let your pump keep running for another 5-10 minutes with just the tubing connected - this will usually get rid of any little bit of milk or condensation. If you do see some milk in your tubing after letting the pump run, you can clean your tubes by: 1. Holding the tubing upright

More Milk Plus & More Milk Special Blend

Many breastfeeding moms worry about whether or not they are making enough milk for their new baby.  One thing that you can do to help with improving your milk supply is to take the More Milk supplements from Motherlove .  But which of the different supplements to take? First Decision - Capsules vs. Liquid Drops - Moms tend to agree that the liquid drops taste horrible!  So most people do buy the capsules, for ease and convenience. - But the liquid drops are slightly more effective because the herbs are able to get into your system faster and more directly, so if you can handle the taste, you might want to buy the liquid. Second Decision - More Milk Plus vs. Special Blend - Both the More Milk Plus and the More Milk Special Blend contain fenugreek seed, blessed thistle, nettle, and fennel seed - all of which are galactagogue (or milk-increasing) herbs.  The More Milk Plus works for most women whose milk supply has decreased due to growth spurts, separation, illness, or stress.

What I Resolve to do in 2018 as a Mom

We are almost a week into 2018, yet I am still editing, finalizing and procrastinating on my New Year’s Resolutions.  Many have already juiced and cleansed.  Some have worked out for five consecutive days. And few have vowed to never drink wine again (good for you!). While I am still ironing out the details of some of my personal resolutions e.g. more vegetables in my diet, and save money for a European vacation, (and perhaps procrastinate less!) I am pretty crystal clear on what I want to improve on in 2018 as a mother and hopefully lasting changes as an overall parent.  Here are my top 4 Mom-o-lutions: I am like the paparazzi when it comes to my kids.  Whether they’re scoring a soccer goal, eating ice cream, building a sand castle, making a silly face, or simply just breathing, I am constantly taking their photos.  Yet, when I looked back in the last years photo reel, there were so few photos of me with my kids.  And I wish I had more.   Ten years from now, I want to be ab
