Welcome to Wild Fig Lactation!

In-home & virtual lactation support in Baltimore City/Baltimore County (MD)

Let’s work together!

Wild Fig Lactation aims to provide non-judgmental, holistic lactation and infant feeding support to Baltimore families. We are registered nurses and lactation consultants, licensed through the International Board of Certified Lactation Examiners, the gold standard in lactation care. Learn more about us here.

Are you tired of endless scrolling at 3AM and trying advice that doesn’t work? You need a plan that aligns your feeding goals with your family’s needs, so you can get back to enjoying your baby.

Whether you are pumping, chest/breastfeeding, or combo-feeding with supplements, you will get an evidence-based care plan and resources tailored to your unique situation.

Wherever you are in your feeding journey, let’s find a path forward, together.

I believe lactation support should be judgment free, tailored, and practical.

We’ll create a workable plan together
so you can focus on your baby!

Testimonials

  • "Abigail is extremely warm-hearted, non-judgmental, and affirming. She held space for me in a very vulnerable and tearful time, coming to my home, and supported me as I navigated hard decisions. I appreciate how she embraces what is reasonable and doable for mom and baby above all else. I would truly recommend her to anyone for their lactation needs!!! Thank you, Abigail!!!"

  • "Abigail was so great! My husband and I found her warm, informative, and fun! She was able to come to our home- which really convenient and covered by insurance. She spent a lot of time with us and made sure we felt confident in the next steps of our breastfeeding journey. Her platform is easy to use, and she quickly sent notes to our pediatrician. "

  • "Abigail has helped me so much on my breastfeeding journey! She came to our house 1 day after we left the hospital and it was life changing. She gave me the confidence I needed to trust my body! My baby is almost 5 months old and I am still exclusively breastfeeding. P.S.: English is my second language and she was very patient with me. Thank you, Abigail! "

  • "Abigail is knowledgeable, empathetic, and an excellent teacher. She listened carefully and observed and was able to offer positioning and other guidance to help my baby latch better and manage a very active let down...Abigail really listens to you and is very encouraging without judgement, while also providing evidence-based recommendations."

  • "She’s been such a trusted resource to me and I’ve had a beautiful breastfeeding journey also thanks to her. My son is 20 months old and, as is to be expected, we have new breastfeeding challenges to overcome. I reached out again and she knew exactly what I needed to know, read, hear, and in general she knew exactly how to support me. 5 star reviews from both mom and baby!"

  • "I was brushed off by five other providers prior to someone giving me her info. From the moment I opened the door she was a warm, friendly face. She didn’t just listen, she truly heard me. She created and held a safe space during a traumatic time. Before I knew it 2 hours had flown by and she had given me incredible information that made immediate improvements for both baby and I."
