Did you know our skin is the largest organ of our immune system? No wonder there’s so much hype about skin to skin and delayed bathing for babies!!

The benefits don’t just stop at the baby, there’s many for the parents too!

Dear pumping queen đź‘‘

Power or cluster pumping is a great way to give your body the cue to make milk. This method is not meant to be a long term goal, but simply a technique to be used in specific times of need.

As an IBCLC, I am intrigued by the steady decline in breastfeeding rates from birth to two years (and beyond).

While “not enough milk” is the largest component for this decline, this is not the same as “low milk supply”. The data suggests that less than 5% of mothers have physiological low supply, alternatively not enough milk is directly correlated to the following:

🤍 the need for better support
🤍 poor guidance with technique
🤍 improper use of pumps
🤍 lack of expertise in latching issues

The decline is not JUST about not having enough milk, it’s about the shift in societal norms, return to work, lack of support, public health initiatives and so much more.

The World Health Organization recommends “exclusively breastfeeding for the first six months, then introducing complementary foods while continuing to breastfeed for up to two years of age or beyond. The longer breastfeeding continues, the greater the benefits”

Canada’s 12-18 months of maternity/parental leave, various OHIP based services and other programs benefit families, but I propose better benefits for feeding dyads because the actual statistics are very disappointing, for the 91% of people who initiate breastfeeding 🤍

Baby Stomach Size & Raspberries ❤️

5–7 mL → 1 raspberry
20–30 mL → 4–6 raspberries
45–60 mL → 9–12 raspberries
80–150 mL → 16–30 raspberries

❤️ These are fun guidelines and do not represent exact amounts. Each baby will be different and should be monitored for their weight gain, pees & poos and general well being.

Hear me out,

Same day consult & release, zero prep and zero post care are just a few other red flags we all need to be aware of. Stop doing this!!!

A tongue tie release is not a freaking hair cut. Don’t bother doing the procedure if you think it’s just a simple snip and ta-da! ✨ feeding problems solved.

Providers must do better!
