Meet your Lactation Consultants!
Abigail Eisley RN, BSN, IBCLC
Abbi founded Wild Fig Lactation to provide holistic lactation support to Baltimore families. She’s been a Registered Nurse for eleven years, and an IBCLC for eight. She lives in Baltimore City with her photographer husband and 4 year old daughter.
Her favorite Baltimore meals are the Ekiben tofu brah bowl with tempura broccoli, and Comptoir COVID lockdown sandwiches…iykyk!
Her breastfeeding story started with some unexpected challenges - tongue and lip ties, low-milk supply, ineffective latch, and postpartum anxiety. These experiences encouraged her to start a private practice where families can find practical ways to navigate similar issues.
Kate McGivern RN, BSN, IBCLC
Kate lives in Baltimore County with her husband and three boys. She’s been an IBCLC for 9 years after working as a Labor & Delivery nurse for 16 years!
Most of her time outside of work is spent driving her boys to and from sports events. She loves trying new restaurants, traveling, and the Outlander novels.
She navigated low supply, oral ties, and slow weight gain among other things during her three unique breastfeeding journeys. She loves holding babies, so feel free to take a break and use the bathroom while she’s there!
