Proud to be an IBCLC!

Tomorrow is IBCLC Day! But what exactly is an IBCLC? 💛

IBCLC stands for International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. These professionals are certified by the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBLCE) and hold the only internationally recognized clinical credential in lactation care.

Many caring professionals support families with lactation, including CLCs, CLEs, and peer counselors. IBCLCs, however, have special training to handle clinical cases, such as helping premature babies, addressing low milk supply, and managing medical conditions that affect breastfeeding.

IBCLCs work in hospitals, private practices, birth centers, WIC programs, and online, so they can support families wherever they are.

Tomorrow, we honor the expertise, dedication, and compassion that IBCLCs bring to their work.

This year, we invite IBCLCs to share all those moments that remind you why you chose this path. Maybe it was a first latch that moved you, a family who stayed in touch, or a case that pushed you to grow as a clinician. We would love to hear from you!

On , March 4th, share your story with and tag .

We’ll feature your stories on our page, because behind every latch is a professional who brings both skill and compassion.

Plus, stay tuned! We have something special planned for you.

Friendly reminder as we enter this season of Lent. You are nourishing another human, therefore the extra calories are truly necessary and you are excused from fasting meals.
Do you part for Lent by fasting from other unnecessary things that take your focus from God.

Pumping hack!

I saw someone in here post about how she pumps until the stream stops, then pulls her b**b off and shakes it then resumes the pump. I never get a let down after the first initial one so I tried it and holy cow it works!!! I almost completely filled both cups in a single 30 minute pump session with my spectra and I’ve never gotten more than half before. I used to pump the entire 30 minutes, barely produce and still feel full after. This is the first time I feel mostly empty. Even my left slacker b**b almost filled the cup. Highly recommend this trick and thanks to whoever posted it!!!
