If your baby suddenly wants to nurse all the time, especially in the evening, you’re not alone! This is called cluster feeding, and it’s completely normal.

Why it happens:
✔️ Helps boost milk supply
✔️ Offers comfort during growth spurts
✔️ Supports your baby’s development

It can feel intense, but it’s temporary. Remember: your baby’s frequent feeding is their way of telling your body exactly what they need.

Have questions or need reassurance? Connect with a Leader near you or check out resources at LLLC.ca

You don’t have to navigate these long days (and nights!) alone. 💚
