Breast For Baby

08/25/2025

If we stop and put things in perspective, we sometimes have to conclude that we have to change our priorities.

I am reminded daily that when parents bring their new baby home, they are often completely unprepared for how they will feed, and where they will turn for help if they need it.

Yes, feeding is natural. But so is birthing, and walking, and skipping... but it all takes practice. And sometimes things are not super easy.

So prepare yourself! Come see me for a prenatal visit. I will walk you through the basics, AND then you will leave with access to chatting with me, immediately when baby arrives.

Ever notice how many babies relax and feed better with gentle bouncing or patting?
🌀As a lactation consultant, I work with many infants who benefit from sensory input to help them feel calm and focused.
Gentle rhythmic movements, soft repetitive sounds, or gentle repeated pats can actually help regulate a baby’s nervous system, especially if they’re feeling a bit overwhelmed, distracted, or fussy.
When a baby's nervous system is regulated,
breathing is easier, relaxing is easier, and staying organized is easier, which makes sucking and swallowing easier! 🌀
