Silverette cups can be helpful for some mums, but they’re not a fix-all. 💡

If you’re experiencing prolonged ni**le soreness, it’s important to find the root cause, whether it’s latch, pumping, or something else. Using Silverette cups without addressing the cause might only mask the problem.

A few tips:
Wash your cups frequently to avoid bacterial buildup.
Prevent milk from pooling inside the cups.
Get professional guidance to address the underlying issue and reduce reliance on cups safely.

Your comfort matters, and small adjustments can make feeding more manageable. 🌸

This fair reminded me again, most mums aren’t intentionally doing anything wrong when it comes to breastfeeding and pumping.

They were just never taught the updated way.

It could be the healthcare system mostly still outdated in breastfeeding assessment and guidance. Or it could be that we still have more outreach and advocacy to do to elevate breastfeeding awareness.

And as an IBCLC, that’s a huge reminder of why education matters so much.

Education prenatally AND postnatally. Not by ANY healthcare professionals. Ideally from:
- IBCLC
- Certified Lactation Counsellors
- Trained Peer Lactation Volunteers

And on the business side, I used to think being a business owner meant doing everything myself.

This weekend proved otherwise.

I hired logistics help for the first time, accepted support from others, and didn’t burn myself out from setup to teardown.

I'd like to think that this is me GROWING as a person and as a business owner.

I love what I do for families, to help them through their breastfeeding journey💗

Babies who’ve been bottle feeding for a while may fuss when returning to the breast. This is usually normal and can happen for a couple of reasons:

Flow preference: Milk from a bottle flows faster than from the breast, so babies need a moment to adjust and work for the milk.

Positioning & comfort: If baby or mum isn’t comfortable, the baby can pick up on the vibes and become fussy.

Patience, gentle adjustments, and checking both your comfort and baby’s position can make feeding smoother and more enjoyable. 🩷

Your milk isn’t static, it’s beautifully alive. Morning milk gives your baby the boost they need to explore the world, while nighttime milk helps them rest, repair, and grow.

It’s one of the quiet miracles of motherhood:
Your body always knows what your baby needs, often before you do. =)

Every feed tells a story of patience, persistence, and profound love. You’re doing sacred work, even when it doesn’t feel graceful. Breathe, pause, ask for help when you need it.

You and your baby are learning the rhythm of enough. 💗

Your ni**le size can naturally change throughout your breastfeeding or pumping journey, especially in the first few months postpartum. Fluid retention and milk production adjustments can make ni**les appear larger or smaller at different times. This is completely normal!

Tip: Always check your fl**ge size, as sometimes ni**le size may change for many mothers. Using the right size ensures comfort, effective milk removal, and helps maintain supply.

Case Insight: It’s Not Always the Breast 👶🏻

6 week old baby, tongue tie released at 3 weeks. Mum reported overall latch improvement but persistent difficulty on one side.

Assessment showed
• Tongue mobility still slightly restricted (not lifting optimally yet)
• Baby struggled when feeding on the left breast while lying on the right shoulder
• However, feeding on the same breast improved when baby was repositioned to lie on the left shoulder

Key takeaway!!!
This isn’t a breast preference issue, it’s body tension affecting positioning and comfort

When tension remains in the body (neck, shoulders, oral structures), babies may
• Struggle in specific positions
• Appear to “reject” one side
• Have inconsistent latch quality despite tongue tie release

What matters post release
A tongue tie procedure is just one part of the journey. Ongoing bodywork and tension release are essential to support full functional improvement

Action point for parents
Incorporate regular, gentle bodywork at home to help your baby
• Improve tongue function
• Feed more comfortably across positions
• Reduce compensatory patterns

Small adjustments in positioning can reveal the real root cause and unlock smoother feeds!

It’s very common to experience sore or tender ni**les in the first few days of breastfeeding. Your body (and your baby) are both adjusting, and while some sensitivity is normal, it should ease as your latch improves.

Reminder: Mild soreness in the first few days can be normal, but sharp, ongoing pain or cracked ni**les aren’t. Don’t wait it out, reach out to a lactation consultant for help.
