Get your no-cost breast pump
Get your no-cost breast pump
You can get a no-cost breast pump to help you with breastfeeding. Just talk to your care manager about how to get yours.
Benefits of a breast pump
When you’re breastfeeding, you’ll want to empty your breasts regularly by feeding or by using a breast pump. This prevents your breasts from becoming full and painful. Many women find it helpful to use a breast pump.
You can pump breast milk when it works for you. Then your baby can get the best nutrition, no matter what your schedule. A breast pump also gives other family members the chance to feed and bond with your baby.
To get help with breastfeeding, you can call the National Breastfeeding Helpline at 1‑800‑994‑9662 (TDD: 1‑888‑220‑5446).

Extra help during pregnancy
We’re here to help you stay healthy through your pregnancy. If you have a high-risk pregnancy, a care manager can help you get the special care you need. You’ll get support, including info about preterm labor and birth.
What is preterm labor?
Preterm (early) labor is labor that starts before 37 weeks of pregnancy. It can cause an earlier birth, which may lead to health problems that can affect the baby.
A care manager can help you:
Learn more about your pregnancy
Get services and care
Work with health care providers, agencies and groups
Arrange services for children with special health care needs
If you do use alcohol, street drugs or even prescription medications, your baby could be at risk for more than just preterm labor. They could also be at risk for neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). Be sure to talk to a care manager in our Special Needs Unit about this. They can help. They’ll work with your provider to make sure you and your baby get the special care you might need for NAS.

Find local maternity resources
A care manager can also connect you with helpful no-cost resources in your community. These could be anything from local maternity programs and support groups to child development services and parent education classes.
