Are you overwhelmed by the amount of bottles on the market? As a breastfeeding mom myself, I remember feeling so overwhelmed when I was making my registry. My personal favs are Lansinoh and Pigeon. These bottles shown were in my local Target and pass the “triangle test!” Comment “bottle” and I’ll send you the full list that passes!

Pumping spray may not be a necessary tool for you, but it sure can make pumping more efficient and more comfortable, especially when using silicone inserts! One of my favorites is this brand-organic ingredients that are safe for you and baby🙌🏼

From bottle refusal to nursing strikes-I’ve been through it all. I had been exclusively nursing my 9 month old up until one day she woke up from a nap and decided she no longer wanted to nurse. This nursing strike lasted over 24 hours. I went from exclusively nursing to exclusively pumping and making bottles instead. What I learned is that with breastfeeding, things may happen that are out of your control. But having someone by your side to help navigate the unexpected can help give you peace of mind. Signed- your CLC who totally gets it🫶🏻

Have you heard about paced bottle feeding? This is very important when introducing a bottle to your breastfed infant. Pacing the bottle using a slow flow ni**le will help baby learn to “work” at the bottle just like they do at the breast to get milk to flow (instead of it dripping into their mouth when bottle is angled). This also helps prevent a bottle preference or flow preference. Upright position is a great position to help baby pace the feed and reach their fullness cues!

Let’s talk about hand pumps! Medela harmony is my go to manual pump. It’s affordable, portable, and so efficient! It’s my personal favorite because it has two modes. The small lever on top helps trigger a letdown, and the bigger lever helps pull milk out once your milk is flowing. Just make sure you use the correct fl**ge size or silicone insert😊

Have you heard of cluster feeding? It serves a big purpose but can make you question your milk supply and if baby is getting enough. A newborn’s stomach size is very small in the beginning, which means they really do not need a lot in terms of volume! However, cluster feeding will still occur to help establish the milk supply and help baby grow🤍

Hydration and nutrition are so important for breastfeeding! Increasing caloric intake and staying hydrated is necessary to support an adequate milk supply😊 #
