I ❤️ my county libraries.

Did you know there is a nursing pod available for use in Discoveries: the Library at the Mall? This is the FIRST of its kind in a Maryland library.

Funded by donors, this new pod offers moms a private, secure, quiet and clean place to breastfeed and pump!

Donations make resources like this possible! Make your library better today: https://www.aacpl.net/foundation/donate

With a major winter storm potentially affecting dozens of states, we recognize the concerns many have about stored milk.

Updated to add: A stand alone freezer will maintain temperature for 48 hours in a power outage if unopened. A freezer compartment within a fridge will maintain temperature for 24 hours if unopened.

[Image Description] Photo of a wintery scene. Text on top reads, "Power outage? Worried about your frozen milk? Try to keep the freezer door completely shut while power is out. Once power is restored, check to see if there are any ice crystals that remain in the bags. If there are any frozen ice crystals at all, it may be refrozen." The La Leche League USA logo is below the text.

You know you're a doula when your 8 year old excitedly screams in Costco "Look at that birth pool, mom!"

Unmedicated births don't mean you can't rest in labor. This mom is rocking her birth on pitocin & being able to cat nap in between contractions. Soon, she'll get up and change positions, keeping gravity on her side being upright. And I bet we'll hit up the dilation station aka the toilet to help bring this dude Earthside. Can't wait to meet him ❤️
