Pumping IS breastfeeding!!

If starting out with plans to pump and provide your breast milk via bottle:
💧Pump as soon after birth as possible (within 1-2
hours)
💧Use a high quality breast pump (NOT a wearable)
or use the hospital’s breast pump
💧Get measured for your fl**ge size
💧Pump every 2-3 hours during the day and every 3
hours over night
💧It’s NORMAL to not get much volume the first few
times you pump!!
💧Meet with an IBCLC soon after hospital discharge

If latching didn’t work out and now you are exclusively pumping:
• Same guidelines as mentioned above!
• Pump at least 8 times in a 24 hour period
• Meet with an IBCLC to help you develop a pumping
routine based off your and baby’s needs!

Establishing and maintaining a good milk supply while exclusively pumping takes more than just a good pump-it takes a plan. 🤎

Donor breast milk isn’t as “out there” as it sounds.

It comes from carefully screened, healthy moms.
It’s tested, pasteurized, and handled with strict safety guidelines.

It’s often used for premature babies or when supplementation is needed.

Think of it less like “someone else’s milk”…
and more like a medically supported, evidence-based option for feeding babies. 💗

“Why are there suddenly so many babies with oral ties? It wasn’t a thing 10 years ago.”

I hear this a lot.

And honestly… it’s a lot like postpartum mood disorders.

We didn’t suddenly create more of them—we just started talking about them, screening for them, and understanding what to look for.

And the same shift has happened with oral ties.

Over time, we’ve had:
• Better research on how babies actually feed at the breast and use their oral muscles
• More in-depth training for providers—looking beyond appearance to how the tongue functions
• Stronger collaboration between lactation consultants, feeding therapists, pediatric dentists, and providers
• More awareness that feeding challenges aren’t just something to “push through” or “keep practicing”-they deserve answers

Years ago, if feeding was hard, the solution was often simple: switch to a bottle, use formula, move on.

There wasn’t the same level of support, access to pumps, or specialized lactation care. And we weren’t routinely asking WHY a baby might be struggling.

Now we are.

So it’s not that oral ties suddenly showed up.

It’s that we finally started looking, asking better questions, and recognizing what was always there. 💙

This tells me she’s already thinking ahead—and that changes everything.

Because here’s what most moms are told:
“Just wait and see how it goes.”

But the reality?
When challenges come up (and they often do), you’re already exhausted, emotional, and trying to figure things out in real time.

That’s not when you want to be searching for help.

Having support in place ahead of time means:
• You know who to reach out to
• You’re not second guessing what’s normal
• You get answers quickly instead of going down a Google spiral

It takes so much pressure off those early days.

And honestly? Most moms don’t even realize this is an option.

That’s exactly why I created my online, self paced course, Abundant Beginnings—so you have guidance before you need it, not just when things feel overwhelming.

And then take it one step further—after you go through the course, line up an IBCLC for postpartum support so you have someone ready if you need hands-on help.

If you’re local, this is exactly what I offer—so we can already have a plan in place before baby arrives.

You deserve to feel prepared, supported, and confident walking into this.

When you’re getting conflicting advice from everywhere, it’s no wonder breastfeeding can feel overwhelming before it even begins.

One person says feed on a schedule.
Another says on demand.
Google says one thing… your friend says another.

And suddenly you’re left wondering—what actually works?

That’s exactly why I created my online, self paced breastfeeding course, Abundant Beginnings 🤍

A clear, realistic, no-fluff breastfeeding course designed to give you one solid plan—before baby arrives.

✔️ Short, easy-to-digest lessons you can watch on your time
✔️ Practical, real-life guidance (not just textbook advice)
✔️ Something you can come back to during those late-night feeds when you need it most

No more guessing.
No more piecing it all together.
Just the knowledge and confidence to start your breastfeeding journey feeling prepared.

Because “winging it” shouldn’t be your only option.

Tongue and lip ties can impact how your baby feeds—and your comfort with breastfeeding.

As a lactation consultant, I don’t diagnose ties, BUT I absolutely will DO an oral assessment to determine how your baby is functioning, let you know what I’m seeing, and how it could be affecting your feeding journey.

Then I connect you with trusted providers who can evaluate, officially diagnose and treat if needed.

You don’t have to figure this out alone 🤍
