Trust me… this isn’t the fix you’ve been promised ⬇️
Latching more to increase your supply—
🔥 Let’s talk about it:
It can help… but it’s not the full solution.
And being told it is? That’s what leaves moms feeling like they’re failing (and turning to formula out of fear).
Here’s the truth👇🏼
Milk supply is supply and demand…
👉 but your body still needs the ability to actually make milk.
If you’re:
• under-eating
• missing key nutrients
• still recovering postpartum
You can latch all day and still not see a real increase.
That’s where this advice falls short—
because it puts all the pressure on you to just try harder.
So no, it’s not bad advice…
it’s just incomplete.
And incomplete advice is what keeps moms stuck, exhausted, and blaming themselves 🤍
Food was never even mentioned once when I was struggling.
👉 your body needs the right fuel to make milk consistently
✨ 2 foods that actually made a difference for me and still do (no brewer’s yeast):
âś… oats
âś… avocado
Once I supported my body, it made a huge difference.
That’s exactly why I created my cookbook—The Lactation Kitchen—
so you don’t have to guess what to eat or hope something works.
Simple, filling, high protein milk-supporting meals… all done for you.
