Kiss your baby and enjoy your day and your family.

Breastfeeding is not always easy and mothers work so hard to provide the best for their babies. The benefits of breastfeeding are plentiful it's not just about milk volume. I just cant say this enough.

This is an approximation and can only be done is exclusively pumping, no breastfeeding involved. I do NOT recommend pausing breastfeeding to assess production if there is no evidence of low production. If everything seems to be going well and baby seems content and is growing appropriately, trust the process. You've got this!

I always think its a good idea to give your placenta a look after the birth. If you experienced issues with your placenta such as placental insufficiency or placenta abruption and you feel it might be impacting your milk production, contact us for a consultation today.

Many second time moms are surprised with how quickly their milk production increases when compared to their first baby. It is not unusual for moms to need to express some milk to comfort here and there when overly full if the baby is not latching at that moment. If you need help with managing your production, reach out to to schedule a consultation.

A multidisciplinary approach gives the most optimal and predictable outcomes when treating babies with tongue tie and oral restrictions. A baby that latches, without pain, and is gaining weight well does not mean they are latching well. A baby with ties will compensate to get by. Having a good release provider and bodyworker is extremally important, but it is NOT a substitute for working with an IBCLC and/or SLP to work on sucking skills and proper oral mechanics to insure sustainability and good feeding skills.

The body is very adaptable and smart. It is made to work. Many moms jump to increasing calories when their milk production is low, but in my experience that is at the bottom of the list of reasons for low milk production. If you need help increasing your milk supply call

It's good to know that these feeding changes are a normal part of development. If your baby is feeding more often, and continues this higher frequency more than a few days, that would be a new feeding pattern not cluster feeding. If the feeding frequency stays high (greater than 13 times per 24 hours for a baby up to 3 months old) see a lactation consultant to make sure the baby is feeding well and not compensating for poor feeds with a high feeding frequency.

Most parents will use a bottle to feed their baby at one point or another. Unfortunately, this lack of standardization makes things more complicated. Appropriate flow is an very important component of bottle feeding and every baby is different. A lot of companies various ni**le flow rates advertised for different age babies is just marketing.

Although a baby should have the ability to suck on a pacfier, many babies are not interested in sucking on one. Although these can be great tools for sucking training when instructed by an IBCLC or SLP for babies with certain feeding challenges, there are drawbacks. Things to consider are how it can impact milk supply, affect sucking skills when breastfeeding and impact oral anatomy.

Breastfeeding so so much more than an amount of milk.

I can honestly say I don't know of one IBCLC who got in this business to make money. Most are like me, passonaite about helping mothers meet their feeding goals and supporting families during the most vulnerable times. I've been an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant fro well over 10 years, and I am even more excited about my job than I was when I started. It never gets old!
