I’m Morgan—your local lactation consultant (CLC since 2017, IBCLC since 2020). Basically, I help with all things human milk + infant feeding. Think of me as your personal milk wingwoman 🍼✨.

A little about me:
👩‍❤️‍👨 Married 12 years to my supportive husband, Sam
👧👦 Parent to two awesome kiddos
📚 Obsessed with fantasy & romance novels (yep, the spicy ones too 🔥)
🌊🏔 Soul split between the mountains and the beach
😁 Professional smiler → rocking wrinkle stripes with pride
🎓 Lifelong learning nerd → always taking courses & trainings so I can better support YOU

I’ve worked in hospitals, group practice, community programs, and now private practice with The Abeille Feeding Clinic Here’s my philosophy: feeding is feeding. Whether your journey looks like exclusive breastfeeding, chestfeeding, combo feeding, pumping, donor milk, formula, or bottles all the way—you deserve support without judgment...PERIOD!

Thanks for being here, and just remember: I’m here to lift you up like a really great bra… supportive, comfortable, and totally made for YOU. 💕

🚨 Breast Pump PSA for New Mommas 🚨

Did you know that most breast pumps come with standard fl**ge sizes of 24mm or 27/28mm? 🤯 While these sizes seem standard, they’re actually too large for many moms!

👶 Especially in those early weeks when your body is learning to produce and release milk, using a fl**ge that’s too big can lead to:
❌ Poor milk removal
❌ Ni**le pain or trauma
❌ Lower milk supply over time

💡Proper fl**ge fit matters—and getting the right size can make pumping more effective and way more comfortable.

✨ If pumping hurts, or it just doesn’t feel right—don’t push through it. A different size might make all the difference.

📩 Reach out if you need help finding the right fit. You don’t have to figure it out alone 💕

With the government shutdown affecting so many in our Fort Leonard Wood and surrounding communities, we want to check in on our families — how are you doing? 💛

I love that PSI is talking about mental health, but I love this even more. Perinatal depression is absolutely real and does happen. When a member of the team (family) is struggling, the team struggles.

Let’s talk about this. Let’s break the stigma. Let’s hold space!
