🤱🏽It’s National Breastfeeding Week! 🤱🏽

In honour of this, I wanted to share what I’ve been using to help with my supply and pumping to feed Ms. Aaliyah.

The basics - water, sleep, and stress management. The latter two are a bit more difficult when you’re barely sleeping and life is still happening, but stress can decrease your milk production, so do the best that you can to not let it get out of control. Walking, baby snuggles, and time in nature helped me.

Good nutrition for you and baby - again can be hard, but colourful foods, good prenatal, omegas, probiotics - all help you and baby!

If you still need to amp up things up, there are some great herbs which can help. I was introduced to products from a lactation consultant, when I was having issues with my milk production after my c-section, and Aaliyah losing more weight than we’d like (turns out she also had a lip and tongue tie that we got surgically fixed). FYI lactation consultants helped so much, and I’d highly recommend getting their support in the first month of your baby’s life.

After some research of my own, I found these supplements were using good quality herb and herb combos to support nutrient dense milk production, options to help with mastitis and clogged ducts, and they carried equipment like hands free breast pumps. Also, their products have hilarious and clever names which I love 🤣. Most importantly, I noticed an improvement in my milk.

I have no affiliation with them - just wanted to pass on some info and tips to those who may be in a similar situation I was/am.

Happy pumping & feeding! 🤱🏽👶🏽
