We see you mama!

Even on the days you’re tired.
Even when the weight feels heavy.
Even when nobody sees how much you’re holding.

You’re showing up. You’re doing the work. You’re enough, right now, as you are.

We see you. We’re with you. And you don’t have to do this alone.

Encouragement, protection of rest, and advocacy can shape a lactating parent’s experience. Feeding a baby is teamwork, even when one body does the feeding.

How can partners better support lactating parents?
