My illustration for the Australian bushfires. I can't seem to find any more words that haven't already been said, there's only sorrow and tragedy. I pray for Australia, the people, and wildlife...🙏🇦🇺


**NEW EDIT**9/1/20

I feel the need to express once again my humble thanks to all who
have liked, commented, shared this post and donated to the
organisations (see first edit notes and links). It really means the
world to me as an artist that, going by the comments, I have been
able to convey what I was feeling via my illustration. As long as
there are people who can feel and be moved by a drawing I feel
there is hope and humanity left in us yet!

I have been asked whether prints of this illustration are available.... I am looking into making this a possibility with the aim of 100% of the profits going towards the bushfire appeals.

I am also adding two more links here to organisations in order to help spread the message of their appeal for aid in the way of donations.

Their work to provide the best care possible for the injured wildlife, is ongoing in this crisis. They're tireless and even heroic in their efforts to help, so if you can please donate or spread the word through sharing that would be wonderful and most appreciated.

Thank you,
Melina x

*FIRST EDIT*

Wow I'm so incredibly humbled by the overwhelming response to my illustration. As much as I really would like to, it is difficult to reply to everyone individually, so I'm taking this opportunity to say a big, big thank you, for the likes, shares but especially for the heartfelt and moving comments.

As there has been a little bit of momentum building with my post I thought I would try to help if I can in my little way by providing links to some worthy organisations/volunteer services providing aid and relief to the fire affected communities. Any donation big or small can go a long way to help!

Fragen gern an mich!

Yep, sorry about that. No foods or drinks are gonna boost your milk supply.
I mean, I'm all for a cookie so if you want one you go right ahead. But removing milk makes milk, not particular food or drink.
If you're concerned about your milk supply or how much milk your baby is getting, seek support! Xx

Sooooo richtig!

Le pédiatre recommande le sevrage de l'allaitement parce que le lait maternel a perdu son efficacité. Le dentiste pour éviter que le bébé ait des caries. La belle-mère pour qu'il ne soit pas trop attaché. L'éducatrice recommande que le bébé s'adapte au plus vite à l'école. La collègue de travail pour que la fin du congé de maternité soit plus facile pour la maman. La nutritionniste recommande le sevrage pour que le bébé mange mieux. Le professionnel de n'importe quelle spécialité médicale pour pouvoir prescrire un traitement pour la mère. Le mari pour que sa femme ne se plaigne plus de fatigue. La consultante en sommeil recommande le sevrage pour que le bébé dorme toute la nuit. L'orthophoniste pour que l'enfant commence à parler plus rapidement. La voisine parce qu'elle trouve ça moche et pas normal.

Savez-vous ce que ces recommandations ont en commun ? Toutes ont besoin d'une preuve scientifique solide qui les justifie. Elles ne sont qu'une opinion personnelle ou professionnelle soutenue sur des arguments douteux. Elles ne sont qu'un échantillon de l'ignorance et des préjugés autour de l'allaitement. Ce sont quelques-uns des obstacles que nous devons affronter pour que l'allaitement soit possible.

Pour la société en général, il est beaucoup plus confortable de jeter la faute de la fatigue maternelle sur la demande du bébé que de fournir le soutien nécessaire pour que cette mère puisse accomplir la tâche difficile de créer un être humain sain à tous les niveaux.

Tant que notre culture continuera à considérer l'allaitement comme la racine de tous les maux de la mère et le sevrage comme la solution idéale de tous leurs problèmes, nous continuerons de nous écarter de notre essence et de transformer notre espèce.

La décision du sevrage appartient exclusivement à la mère et au bébé, et non au médecin ou la société. Arrêtons de vendre de l'illusion aux mères fatiguées, car l'allaitement est rarement le vrai problème et le sevrage ne garantit rien. Les mères ont avant tout besoin d'un soutien efficace.

These days, there's controversy surrounding infant tongue tie surgery. ("tongue tie" or "tethered oral tissue"). Also, it's easy to assume that tethered oral tissue is causing the feeding problem—and that could be!

I totally agree 👍🏼

Adequate Infant Weight Gain is Not the Same Thing As Normal Infant Weight Gain

When it comes to determining whether a tongue tie release is justifiable or not, many doctors and lactation consultants feel that a baby with “normal” weight gain should never have a procedure done. I’ve written about this topic years ago: https://www.drghaheri.com/blog/2014/2/20/a-babys-weight-gain-is-not-the-only-marker-of-successful-breastfeeding

The problem with that mentality is that it assumes that the only point of breastfeeding is to get a baby to grow larger. It ignores the process of getting to that weight. This is often a result of doctors focusing on the baby but not focusing on the mom/family’s journey in feeding the baby.

Insurance companies routinely try and deny coverage for frenotomy because the baby “has sufficient weight gain”. By itself, this is why I wanted to write this post - it’s not in the best interest of the dyad to have insurance companies determine what symptoms are appropriate to treat. Denying coverage for a procedure because the baby is somehow gaining weight ignores all the other symptomatic threats to the breastfeeding relationship.

A baby with a tongue tie can still gain weight in various ways.
1) The most common explanation is bottle supplementation. Because breastfeeding mechanics can be severely compromised when tongue tie is present, there may be little to no milk transfer from ni**le compression. The same baby may be able to feed on a bottle because compression may not close off the ni**le and/or the flow of the bottle chosen may allow the baby to gain weight.
2) A second explanation can occur even if the baby is exclusively breastfed - maternal oversupply and overactive letdown. It is important to remember that the optimal mechanics during breastfeeding is when the baby mechanically removes milk from the breast rather than receiving milk from the breast. The latter situation can allow for air ingestion, reflux, and may only allow for weight gain when the baby needs smaller volumes of milk. It is unlikely that passive reception of milk will allow for continued weight gain as the baby progresses in age (and caloric demand) and it may ultimately affect mom’s milk supply from poor stimulation of the breast.
3) Not uncommonly, maternal tenacity will keep the baby’s weight gain up. I know many moms who will grit their teeth and curl their toes and continue to feed in marathon feeding sessions just to keep the baby fed. This is NOT normal weight gain. This is weight gain in the face of adversity and should not be accepted.

We need medical practitioners and lactation consultants to understand the difference between *adequate* weight gain and *normal* weight gain. Adequate weight gain in the face of other symptoms caused by tongue tie still warrants a procedure if those symptoms can’t be alleviated by conservative measures and if they jeopardize the feeding relationship.

Finally, it’s important to understand that a baby can gain weight but still drop in percentiles. It still surprises me when I find doctors focusing on the actual weight of the baby instead of plotting that baby’s weight on a growth curve. The attached growth curve demonstrates a situation where a baby was gaining weight, albeit slowly, when serial weights were obtained. When you see the actual percentiles, it tells a different story. The yellow line represents the day I performed a frenotomy - this type of growth curve is unfortunately common.

I want everyone to understand that weight gain is one potential factor impacted by tongue tie. It is not the most important. We need everyone to take a more comprehensive view of the feeding process.

Regularly I receive frantic phone calls, texts, and Facebook tags from parents in support groups. Usually they are in a panic and seeking emergency information because their toddler had a frenectomy...
