Calling all mamas with early spring due dates, this one’s for you 🤍

Let’s help you walk into your breastfeeding journey feeling informed, confident, and supported from day one.

Our Prenatal Breastfeeding Group Classes cover everything from preparing for delivery to what those first hours and days postpartum can really look like. We’ll talk through the golden hour and skin-to-skin, hand expression, latching and positioning, how to support milk supply early on, and so much more. Most importantly, we want you to feel empowered to advocate for yourself and your baby. These free classes give you space to ask questions, learn the basics, and feel prepared before you bring your little one home.

👉🏽 This class is FREE, spots fill quickly, so don’t wait.
👉🏽 January 19th | 6:00–7:15 PM

Visible ≠ dysfunctional. Your baby cries, and you notice a band of tissue under the tongue. Your breastfeeding journey, your baby’s behavior, and your baby’s weight have been amazing, so should you immediately be concerned? Probably not!

If you look at this baby without knowing the history or how it is functionally, the structure of the tongue might look “bad.” When assessing for tongue or lip restrictions, we take multiple points into consideration before making a decision on how to treat an infant. If babies are feeding and growing well, mom is not in pain, baby is not in pain (think reflux, colic etc) and there is not clicking, leaking, unusually long and frequent feeds, or continual low resting tongue posture, then we don’t have to make major interventions. Oral exercises or teethers can still be helpful to encourage continued tongue strength and mobility. If you’re unsure, let us walk you through the process!

Now, quick check: open your mouth like the baby in this video. Raise your hand if you have that band of tissue too? 👐🏻

We’ve been receiving lots of questions over the last two weeks on how to get involved with the Bundle of Joy Drive, so here’s your opportunity. 🤍

This year, 32 families applied for support, and we want to make every wishlist happen. We’re keeping things simple with two ways to help:

1️⃣ Sponsor a Family
Comment “Sponsor” and we’ll reach out to pair you with a family + share their wishlist.

Gift drop-off will be at our Fayetteville clinic on Dec 13 (10–12) or Dec 14 (1–4).

We’ll take care of sorting & getting all gifts to the families!

2️⃣ Donate via Venmo
If shopping isn’t your thing, you can give directly to and we’ll place bulk orders to fill remaining needs.

Any families not matched with a donor will be fully covered by Arkansas Lactation.

Thank you for showing up for the tiniest population and their parents this holiday season❤️
