I come bearing GOOD NEWS!!!!!!

We’re excited to announce that SonShine & Rainbows Lactation is now in-network with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield of Virginia! 💙 Y’all know this has been an uphill battle for 7 years…. But we persisted. For you. Because you deserve quality lactation care. And yes, we’re STILL accepting Aetna, Cigna, Tricare, and United Healthcare!!!!

This means more families can access high-quality, culturally responsive lactation support at a lower cost or no cost, depending on their plan.

Also…. You asked and we listened. We are now offering home visits for families in Williamsburg, Virginia and Elizabeth City, NC!!!

If you’re expecting, nursing, pumping, or navigating feeding challenges, we’re here to support you every step of the way — in home, virtual, or wherever you need us.

More coverage. Less stress. Same compassionate care. ♥️

Many babies latch easily — but for others, it takes time, patience, and a little extra support. 💛 Whether it’s due to tongue-tie, a cleft lip, or just a learning curve, breastfeeding challenges are more common than you think.

If you’re struggling with latching or feeding, you are not alone — and it’s okay to ask for help. Lactation consultants, pediatricians, and supportive communities can make a big difference.

✨ Every baby is different, and some just need a little more time and guidance. You’ve got this.

Noticing any of these signs of a shallow latch? You’re not alone — and you don’t have to tough it out. A good latch can make all the difference in your breastfeeding journey. 💛

If feeding is painful, frustrating, or just not feeling right… it’s okay to ask for help. Reach out to a lactation consultant or trusted healthcare provider. You and your baby both deserve a calm, connected feeding experience. 🍼✨

Breastfeeding should not hurt. 🤱💬
If you're experiencing pain, it's often a sign of a latch issue — not something you just have to “push through.”

Your comfort matters. Addressing latch problems early can prevent long-term discomfort and make feeding a more peaceful experience for both you and your baby. 💛

👩‍⚕️ Don’t hesitate to reach out to a lactation consultant for support — help is available, and you’re not alone.

🤱✨ The Key to Pain-Free Breastfeeding: A Good Latch!

A poor latch can cause ni**le pain, lower milk supply, and ineffective feeding—even if your baby seems to be nursing. A deep latch means your baby takes in a big portion of the ar**la, with their lips flanged out like a fish. 🐟💙

If you're experiencing pain or your little one isn’t gaining weight well, it might be time to adjust the latch! Need help? Reach out to a lactation consultant for support. 💕
