Feeding babies with bottles is something that many people do in the United States and other countries. Whether you pump and feed your milk (or someone elseโ€™s milk) to your baby or use formula some or all of the feedings, your baby deserves to have a bottle teat/ni**le that supports biologically normal oral function, if possible. Here I am sharing some of the tips I provide to my clients. Chere and I primarily support families who plan to breast/chest feed and pump, but we also support parents who are looking for support with overall bottlefeeding. Post your questions in the comments!

As you may know, I just love โค๏ธ talking about pumping โ›ฝ๏ธ and fl**ge fitting. โญ•๏ธโญ•๏ธ If you support people with pumping and fl**ge fitting, my Fl**ge Fitting for Clinical Practice Workshop + is for you!

It's so wonderful to see the difference it makes in someone's experience when they can pump milk with complete comfort and they are happy/happier with the amount of milk they are yielding!

I'M WORKING ON MY 2026 WORKSHOP SCHEDULE to teach perinatal professionals about these tools and techniques, and I have FOUR in-person workshops scheduled so far (more to come!).

More are in the works but if one of these dates works for you, why not get it on your calendar now so nothing else gets in the way?
This workshop is fun, interactive, hands-on, and you get to use what you learn right away!

Why the โž•๏ธ? Because it includes a bit more than just those topics. ๐Ÿคฉ

Email ๐Ÿ“ง me at jeanette@babiesincommon.com if you'd like to learn more about hosting in your location..

P.S. by the way, yes!--I DO still support my clients with nursing๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿผ, if that's what they want to do.

Just how do we measure for a fl**ge fitting? A fl**ge fitting may start with a measurement but you have to actually pump with fl**ges close to the size of your ni**le tip to find the one(s) that feel the best and get the most milk out! **gesizematters
