🖤✨ Hello, Alluring Birth Community! ✨🖤
It’s Black Breastfeeding Week (Aug 25–31), and we’re honored to celebrate alongside you with hearts full of intention, love, and community pride.
Whether you’re nursing, pumping, combo or formula feeding, supporting a birthing person, or working in birth or lactation — we see you, we support you, and you matter.
** Did You Know?**
According to the CDC, increased breastfeeding among Black families could reduce infant mortality rates by up to 50%. Yet, systemic barriers such as lack of culturally affirming support and generational trauma mean Black infants remain significantly less likely to be breastfed.  
** This Week’s Self‑Care Focus:**
Take a moment today to pause, breathe deeply, and affirm:
✨ “My nourishment is strength, my rest is revolutionary, and my community is healing.”
Let’s reclaim our narratives and lift each other up in nourishment, rest, and joy. You are not alone. 💪🏾🍼💕
