📌 SAVE THIS if you have EDS, hEDS, or hypermobility and you’re pregnant or breastfeeding.

This community is underserved and underheard- and your breastfeeding experience may be genuinely more complex than what standard advice accounts for.

Fragile tissue. Joint instability. Fatigue. Dysautonomia. Slow healing. These are real factors that affect how you feed your baby - and they deserve real, individualized support. Not “just push through.”

Your body may need more support, not less. And adaptive feeding - whatever that looks like for you - is still successful feeding.

Swipe through for clinical considerations specific to EDS and hypermobility, including positioning, pumping, fatigue management, and why your feeding goals get to be flexible.

If you have EDS and are navigating breastfeeding, I would love to support you. I offer individualized lactation care that meets your body where it is - not where textbooks say it should be.

💛 DM me or book directly below.

Some nights just hit different. 🥹

Sheryl and I met in postpartum. We’ve held babies, supported mamas, and navigated the most raw and beautiful moments of new parenthood together. So going to see of Birth Vibes, someone who has dedicated her platform to normalizing and celebrating birth, felt full circle.

I told her about . About the mamas we serve. About the community we’re building. And she genuinely lit up.

Autograph in the book. Photo with my girl. Heart completely full. 💛🩺✨

📌 SAVE THIS if your milk is slow to let down — or if you’re staring at your pump willing something to happen.

Slow letdown is one of the most common breastfeeding frustrations, and one of the most misunderstood. It doesn’t mean your supply is low. It doesn’t mean something is wrong with you. It usually means your nervous system needs a little help getting there.

Oxytocin — the hormone that triggers letdown — is incredibly sensitive to stress, tension, and anxiety. Which, hi, you’re a new mom. Of course your nervous system is activated.

The good news? There’s a lot you can do. Swipe through for evidence-based and holistic interventions that actually work — from breathwork and breast massage to acupuncture, CST, CFT, and Reiki.

You are not broken. Your body is not failing you. Sometimes it just needs the right conditions to do what it already knows how to do. 💛

If you’re struggling with letdown or slow flow, reach out — this is exactly what I’m here for.

📌 SAVE THIS if you’ve ever felt a wave of sadness, dread, or anxiety right before your milk lets down — you are not alone, and there is a name for what you’re experiencing.

D-MER (Dysphoric Milk Ejection Reflex) is a physical, not emotional, response. Just before letdown, dopamine briefly dips — causing a sudden flood of negative feelings that disappears within minutes. It is not postpartum depression. It does not mean anything is wrong with you or your love for your baby.

It has a name. It has a cause. And it is not your fault. 💛

Swipe through to learn:
→ What D-MER actually is
→ What it feels like (mild to severe)
→ How to tell it apart from PPD
→ What actually helps
→ Words to say to yourself in the hard moments

If this resonates, please reach out. So many moms suffer in silence because they’re ashamed to say “I feel dread when I feed my baby.” You deserve support — not shame.
