The Better Boob, Lactation RN

It seems simple right? If mama is happy ➡️ baby is happy & vice versa.

Instead of fed is best, I have been saying this because You, mama. YOU deserve to be happy. Regardless of the way you feed your baby. It is so much more than that!

Our babies feed off our energy. They thrive on our happiness and they sense when we’re stressed.

I have said this before and I’ll say it again...

It does not matter how you feed your baby. Breast, formula, pumping or a little mix of it all, what matters is that you feel supported. You should feel happy. You ultimately should be proud. You are a MAMA. And you deserve happiness above all else 💙 and maybe the occasional foot rub. Am I right? 😂

The Better B**b team is growing!!

Baby BOY Miller (yes, 3rd BOY) coming end of this year 💙

I know I’ve been a little quiet on here lately. Turns out running 2 businesses, keeping track of 2 boys and growing another human isn’t the easiest task!

I’m finally feeling better. I’m full swing in the second trimester, got over a kidney stone last week and baby is the size of a soda can (see what I did there?)

I’ve been DYING to tell you all but just wanted it to feel like the right time outside of all the chaos!

Can’t wait to share this next adventure (and try all the new breast pumps and baby items!)

STAY TUNED ✨

It wasn’t the plan I wanted - but also it was 💙

3.5 years later I’m still healing from my birth trauma but I saw this trend and I could of wrote everything that went wrong like that I went in for decreased fetal movement and my baby’s heart rate was in the 50s-60s that I was rushed back to an emergency c-section all while calling my husband to get care for our then 2.5 year old then to have baby taken to the NICU for respiratory distress and extremely low blood sugar.

But I think back to my birth plan - and the first thing it read was “Ultimately come in as 2 people and leave as 3”

How was your birth?

You know what they say… you can’t stop a determined mom. Especially when that mom is on her way to a lactation consultation!

This mom changed her tire. On the side in the highway. WITH her baby in the backseat and DIDN’T cry. AND she was only 15 minutes late to the appointment. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Shout out to this determined, SUPER MAMA 💙 💪🏼

By the way - I love my MIL. But I know it’s not the case for everyone 😉
