🌞 Did you know? Even though breast milk is the gold standard for infant nutrition, it doesn’t naturally provide enough vitamin D on its own.

👶 That’s why exclusively breastfed babies need 400 IU of vitamin D daily, starting shortly after birth, to support healthy bone development and help prevent rickets.

💡 Two ways to supplement:

1️⃣ Direct infant supplementation – Use infant vitamin D drops (400 IU), given once daily.
2️⃣ Maternal supplementation – If mom takes 6,400 IU of vitamin D daily, enough can pass through breast milk to meet baby’s needs. This can be a great option for families who prefer not to use infant drops.

✨ Always consult with your healthcare provider before making changes to your supplement routine.

As a lactation consultant, my goal is to help you make informed, confident choices for your family. Whether you choose infant drops or maternal supplementation, both are safe and effective ways to support your baby’s health.

Choosing the best bottles for your breastfed baby can depend on your baby's preferences, but there are some features to look for:

🍼 Avoid brands that advertise being closest to the breast. These bottle systems typically have very short ni***es that encourage baby to have a narrow and shallow latch. That is NOT something you want baby to do at the breast if you're nursing!

🍼 Slow Flow Ni***es: Look for bottles with ni***es designed to have a slow flow to mimic breastfeeding and prevent ni**le confusion. Using a slow flow ni**le along with paced bottle feeding will help your baby go between breast and bottle more easily.

🍼 Wide sloped Ni***es: Bottles with wide sloped ni***es can help babies latch on more easily and promote a wide gape, similar to their latch at the breast.

🍼 Ease of Cleaning: Look for bottles that are easy to clean, either by hand or in a dishwasher.

Some popular bottle brands for breastfed babies include Pigeon, Evenflo, Lansinoh, Spectra, Dr. Brown's, and the new Nuk bottles. However, every baby is different, so it may take some trial and error to find the right bottle for your little one!

Care that’s intentional, supportive, and evidence-based

04/06/2026

Frequent feedings don’t automatically mean something is wrong.

In fact, for many babies, it’s completely normal.

Newborns especially tend to feed often because their stomachs are small, digestion is quick, and your body is still learning how much milk to make. It’s a dynamic system, not a set schedule.

There are also times when feeding ramps up even more, like during growth spurts or developmental shifts. You might notice it feels nonstop for a few days… then things settle again.

The key isn’t how often your baby feeds.
It’s what’s happening during and over time.

Are you noticing swallowing?
Is baby having enough wet and dirty diapers?
Are they growing well?

Those are the clues that matter most.

If something feels off, trust that instinct. Frequent feeding can be normal… but it can also be worth a closer look with the right support.

You don’t have to figure it out alone.

Save this for reassurance on those “why are we feeding again?” days 🤍

🌅 He Is Risen! Happy Easter! 🌅

“He is not here; He has risen, just as He said.” — Matthew 28:6

Today we celebrate the miracle of the Resurrection—proof of God's triumph over death and the promise of eternal life through Jesus Christ. Easter reminds us that no matter how dark the night, joy comes in the morning.

As caregivers, mothers, and nurturers, we see glimpses of resurrection every day—in new life, restored hope, and the quiet strength God provides in our calling.

May your Easter be filled with peace, joy, and the unshakable hope we have in Christ. ✝️

✝️The office will be closed today in observation of Good Friday✝️

“By His wounds we are healed.” — Isaiah 53:5

Today, we remember the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ—His suffering, death, and boundless love for us. Good Friday is a solemn reminder of the depth of God’s mercy and the promise of redemption through the cross.

As we reflect on His sacrifice, may our hearts be softened, our faith strengthened, and our spirits renewed.

From Candace and her family, we pray this Good Friday draws you closer to the heart of Christ.

"And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
-Philippians 2:8-11

Situations like this are more than uncomfortable—they’re preventable.

In Georgia, mothers have the legal right to breastfeed anywhere they are otherwise allowed to be. This protection exists across all 50 states.

When a mother is asked to leave for feeding her baby, it reflects a gap in awareness—not a problem with her behavior.

This is an opportunity for education and growth, especially in spaces that serve families every day.

Support matters. Language matters. Leadership matters.

Save this as a reminder of what the law actually says—and what respectful care should look like in practice.
