Exceptional Care That Transforms.

Memorial Breastfeeding Center

Memorial Breastfeeding Center is your resource for breastfeeding education and assistance on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. When it comes to your baby's nutrition, only the best should do.

Memorial’s Breastfeeding Center offers nursing supplies, free prenatal information, educational information, and much more.

Breast Pump Rentals

Pumps are available for rent (Symphony™). Medela® Breast Pumps have Autocyle™ action to automatically create suck-release-relax cycles which duplicates, as nearly as possible, a baby’s nursing action.

This pump is suitable for every pumping need, including initiating and sustaining milk supply when breastfeeding is not possible. This hospital grade pump uses a personal collection kit, so the parts that touch the breast are new with each rental. Single or double pumping is possible. Double pumping cuts pumping time in half and increases prolactin levels, the hormone that helps maintain milk supply.

Lactation Consultants

Memorial Breastfeeding Center is staffed by International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLC). We are proud to offer this team of RN/IBCLCs to provide substantial breastfeeding assistance and skilled technical management for your breastfeeding journey.

Consultations are available on an outpatient basis after release from the hospital, which means breastfeeding assistance does not end at discharge.

Make an Appointment With a Lactation Consultant

Breastfeeding consultation appointments are available Monday-Friday, 9AM-3PM.

Appointment scheduling and telephone assistance are available during business hours by calling (228) 867-4053.

Referrals are always welcome.
