Read What They Loved About Blyssful Rivers...
I was struggling with latching and feeling overwhelmed when I found Blyssful Rivers. From the very first online session, I felt heard and supported. I honestly don’t know what I would’ve done without their guidance.

Feeding twins is no joke! We were exhausted and feeling like we were failing until Blyssful Rivers came to our home. Our lactation consultant was kind and knowledgeable; she helped us figure out a tandem feeding system and reminded us that we’re doing great. It made all the difference.
