Blooming Babies

Blooming Babies is our outpatient clinic designed to help mothers continue their breastfeeding journey. This clinic is designed to reach any mother/baby dyad that finds themselves in need of assistance with breastfeeding issues. When mothers and babies go home from the hospital, many times they face issues with breastfeeding that can be overwhelming and they are in need of assistance. Our clinic is here to help mothers and their babies with many issues such as latching help, weight checks, weighted feeds, slow growth, and various other things that moms face during this very special time. We are here every day of the week by appointment and via telephone. If a mom is in need of breastfeeding assistance they can reach us at 812.238.4985 or 812.238.7857.
