I’ll be honest… when I first became a mom, breastfeeding was WAY harder than I expected. Fast forward a few years, and now I’m a lactation consultant helping other families navigate this beautiful (but sometimes challenging!) experience.

I just shared my latest blog post where I’m getting real about both the struggles AND the wins plus sharing my top practical tips that actually work.
