Comment “MISTAKES” to grab my free guide packed with practical tips to make feeding stress-free! 🦃🍴

Thanksgiving can bring lots of noise, distractions, and chaos—which can make feeding your baby or toddler a little trickier! 🍽️ But here’s how to minimize distractions (or let go of the pressure!):

1️⃣ Create as quiet a space as possible: If the TV is on or there’s a lot of noise, ask relatives if it’s okay to turn it off during the actual meal, or move your baby’s high chair to a quieter area.

2️⃣ Stay present: Focus on connection and fun rather than how much they eat.

3️⃣ Embrace the chaos: It’s one meal—give yourself grace!

Thanksgiving often brings well-meaning relatives who want to “help” by giving your baby a bottle. 🍼 While it can be nice to take a break if you want it, here are some tips to navigate this while keeping breastfeeding on track:

1️⃣ Communicate your plan: Share what works best for your baby and feeding goals.

2️⃣ Pump if they get a bottle: Don’t skip pumping—keeping up milk supply is key.

3️⃣ Know it’s okay to say no: Politely decline if you’re not comfortable, or take the break if it works for you!

💡 Not sure what to say? Here are a few examples:
• “Thank you for offering! I’d prefer to stick to breastfeeding right now.”
• “Bottles aren’t in our plan for today, but I appreciate you wanting to help!”
• “We’re holding off on bottles for a bit, but thanks so much for understanding!”

🤫 Here’s the secret to feeling more confident in those early feeding days:
It starts with knowing what’s normal — and avoiding the mistakes many parents make simply because no one tells them otherwise.

One big one?

Introducing bottles without pumping.
When someone else gives a bottle and you skip that feeding, your body misses the signal to make milk, which can lead to supply dips.

Want the rest of the common mistakes (and what to do instead)?

The first week of breastfeeding can feel overwhelming, but knowing what to expect makes such a difference.

Here are three things I always remind new moms:

1️⃣ Frequent feeds: Most babies nurse 10–12+ times in 24 hours. This helps establish your supply and gives your baby the nutrients they need.

2️⃣ Cluster feeding: Often happens in the evenings. It’s a normal pattern that supports your body’s milk production.

3️⃣ Milk transitioning: Around days 3–5, your milk shifts from colostrum into transitional milk. It increases in volume and becomes richer in fat and calories to match your baby’s needs. You may notice your breasts feeling fuller or firmer during this shift, which is normal.

When you understand what’s normal, everything feels a little less stressful and a lot more manageable.

🍼 Inside Breastfeeding With Confidence, I walk you through these early days step-by-step so you can feel prepared and supported from the start.
