Grateful to unite my two passions: 🤱🏽and 🥗

When I started my first breastfeeding journey I never expected it to be so hard and for help to be so nonexistent. I dove into the research for myself so I could help more moms feel supported and informed.

After 7 years, I’ve developed a handbook that supports not only your breastfeeding journey BUT also your nutrition journey as a new mom.

Choline is important for fetal growth and placental health. Research shows that for the best outcome 450-900mg/day is recommended.

Eggs are a fantastic way to get choline in your diet all while reducing blood sugar spikes first thing in the morning! Try these egg ideas:
🥚 Hard boiled eggs + hummus + broccoli sprouts
🥚Eggs (any style) + avocado + h**p hearts + toast
🥚Scramble + chicken sausage + feta + peppers + spinach

A lot of major health organizations recommend feeding your baby from your body for up to 2 years OR as mutually desired.

Here’s some fun milk facts:
🟢your milk is always changing makeup. The milk you made for your baby at 3 months postpartum is the same at 12 months postpartum
🟢antibodies are a major part of human milk
🟢fills in nutritional gaps for your toddler, think of it as the ultimate multivitamin
🟢provides comfort at 2 weeks and at 2 years, that’s really special
🟢makes you and your child slow down
🟢most children won’t start weaning themselves until around 18-24 months
🟢major health benefits for the lactating person like reduced risk of breast and ovarian cancer
🟢for your child, feeding at your body helps reduce risk of things like ear infections and SIDS

That being said, everyone decides to end the feeding relationship at a different time for various reasons. And, if we are honest parental leave in the United States doesn’t set people on a path to feed their babies for extended periods of time.

When did you stop breast/chest feeding your baby? What prompted it?
