“ Of course it is possible these days to join online groups or Google things when I have new mama questions, but knowing there was a specific expert I could ask my questions to really made me feel more confident and that I was getting the personalized answers and support I needed. ”
Carolyn B., new mom
“ The service was worth the money—to get personal, simplified advice. Don’t waste your time stressing and spinning your wheels trying to figure it out when you can have a relatable expert lay it out for you. ”
Morgan S., new mom
“ I was struggling with an inadequate milk supply, and I needed HELP! As a first time mama, I was so overwhelmed with supplementing and infant weight gain. Our appointment with Morgan was integral to our breastfeeding journey! We truly went over so much, I couldn’t imagine where we would be without her suggestions! Morgan even reminded me that every drop of breast milk I could give my daughter is given with love! I have made peace with topping up! I couldn’t recommend Morgan enough! Thank you, again!! ”
Meg C., new mom
“ I left my session with Janine feeling informed, relieved, and empowered. I made the appointment with a specific health goal in mind: to set myself up as best as possible for good mental health postpartum. Janine was so well prepared for that conversation! She was reassuring while simultaneously giving me a ton of fantastic information that I had never previously been exposed to. More than just suggesting various alterations and additions to my diet, though, Janine also checked in about my lifestyle generally, including asking about how my family would feel about making the changes we'd discussed together. It felt clear that she could help me truly thrive postpartum—by both supplying the appropriate nutritional information and helping me prepare supportive habits. A huge "thank you" to Expectful for giving me that great experience! ”
Jill M., expecting mom
“ I thought it was very helpful to have an easy one on one session with an expert instead of reading information online! Having someone listen to my exact experience made all the difference! ”
Lauren M., new mom

FAQs
Are all appointments virtual?
Right now, all appointments are virtual. We love the safety, convenience, and affordability of virtual visits, but we also know that in-person care can be fulfilling, as well. As we plan to offer in-person options let us know if you’d like us to launch local wellness services in your area by

Do I have to have video on for my appointment?
We want you to be most comfortable during your appointment. While video is not necessary for all appointments, it can be hugely beneficial in appointments like lactation consultations where a latch or feeding may need to be observed. Our specialists also love seeing your face and connecting with you more closely.
Can I use my insurance with these consultations? Or my FSA or HSA?
Yes! Just use your HSA/FSA at checkout instead of your credit card. Please note that your card carrier may require proof of medical necessity from your medical provider. While all of our services are eligible, it is up to the carrier to determine if they accept a particular service under their plan. Please contact your card provider prior to booking your appointment. We can also send you an invoice of care provided if that is needed by your carrier.
Regarding insurance, we are working hard to make sure that you can get some insurance assistance with eligible appointments. Stay tuned!
Is my personal health data secure?
We value your privacy which is why we use Zoom, a HIPAA-compliant video solution, for our virtual sessions. Video sessions cannot be recorded or shared in any way. We also use a HIPAA-compliant cloud technology for our appointment booking technology to protect your personal data.
What is your cancellation policy?
We understand that life happens and you may need to cancel. You can cancel up to 24 hours prior to your scheduled appointment time. You can use the link in your confirmation email to do so. If you cancel within 24 hours of your appointment time, you do forfeit the cost of your appointment. This also applies to appointments made and cancelled within 24 hours of the appointment.
We know as moms ourselves, however, that there are last-minute emergencies that pop up. If you want to reach us about an emergency cancellation, please email us at services@expectful.com.
Can I choose the specialist I see, or do you choose them for me?
You have two options for booking an appointment.
One, you can choose the availability that’s most convenient and have the specialist selected for you.
Two, you can choose a specialist that resonates with you based on their bio and find an appointment in their calendar that works for you.
Do I get anything to take home after a consultation?
Yes! It is so hard to remember everything that was mentioned during your consultation, so you receive care notes from your specialist afterwards to summarize the top takeaways and recommendations.
