Ni**le Shields are meant to be a temporary tool while problems are actively being solved, it is NOT a forever solution.

If you're using a ni**le shield, we can help get to the root of any issues and come up with a plan to resolve them WITHOUT the shield.

Reminder that the tiny bits of colostrum baby gets in the first days is ALL baby needs!

Reminder that the tiny bits of colostrum baby gets in the first days is ALL baby needs!

At birth, your baby’s stomach is tiny—it can only hold about a teaspoon of milk. By day 3, it holds just 4–5 teaspoons. That makes the amounts of colostrum and milk your body produces a perfect fit.

It also means that unnecessary supplements can fill a baby’s stomach quickly. That makes them less likely to feed at the breast—which signals your body to make less milk.

It’s a cycle that can lead to low milk supply and breastfeeding problems—often before parents even realize what’s happening.

At Baby-Friendly USA–designated facilities, breastfed babies are not given food or fluids other than human milk unless there is a medical need or parental request. This protects milk supply and supports parents’ feeding goals—right from the start.

With winter warnings across much of the US, it's so important to be informed and have a plan in case you experience a power outage.

Stay safe, everyone ❄️

⚡️ POWER OUTAGE + BREASTMILK?
Here’s what to do to keep baby and breastmilk safe.

Power went out and you have breastmilk in the fridge/freezer...I know that panic feeling so well, especially when your milk represents HOURS of work and a food source for your baby.

✅ FIRST: Keep fridge/freezer doors CLOSED as much as possible.

MILK IN THE FRIDGE

🧊 If fridge is ≥ 40°F / 4°C for 4+ hours: save for a milk bath.
✅ If still cold (≤ 40°F / 4°C): use within typical timeframe.

MILK IN THE FREEZER

❄️ If milk has ice crystals: SAFE TO REFREEZE
❄️ If milk is fully thawed but still cold: use within 24 hours (do not refreeze- some parent will opt to refreeze based on their own comfort).
🚫 If milk is warm or you’re unsure: save it for a milk bath.

✨ Pro Tip: Move freezer milk to a cooler with ice packs if outage lasts longer than expected.
✨ Pro tip: keep a cheap fridge thermometer inside your fridge/freezer, it makes decisions SO much easier during outages.

✨ BIG CONGRATULATIONS! ✨

We are beyond excited to celebrate Dani, who officially became an IBCLC on January 1, 2026 🎉

Dani has always brought so much compassion, knowledge, and dedication to the families she serves, and this milestone is such a well-earned reflection of her commitment to evidence-based, supportive lactation care. Becoming an IBCLC is no small feat, and we are incredibly proud to have her on the Nurture & Nourish team.

Our families are so lucky to have you, Dani — congratulations on this amazing accomplishment! 💛

Human milk is miraculous, especially for our most vulnerable

The American Academy of Pediatrics new clinical report, "Promoting Human Milk and Breastfeeding for the Very Low Birth Weight Infant: Clinical Report," reaffirms that a mother’s own milk is the standard for very low birth weight (VLBW) infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
