🫶 Every drop counts
Whether you are exclusively breastfeeding, combo feeding, or pumping, every drop of breastmilk provides antibodies and nutrition for your baby.

If I could be honest about motherhood, I’d say this: the kids are not the hard part, loving them is the easiest thing in the world.

What hurts is the invisible weight: the endless planning, the sleepless nights, the quiet sacrifices no one claps for.

And yet, mothers rise, every single day. Not because it’s easy, but because love makes them unstoppable. 💛

What’s one thing you wish others truly understood about motherhood?

👀 Babies use all their senses when feeding

During breastfeeding, babies smell, see, hear, touch, and taste.

Feeding is not only about nutrition but also about comfort and bonding.

🌙 Night feeds are normal
Waking often to feed at night is expected for babies, especially in the early months.

Night feeding supports growth and helps maintain milk supply.

Has your baby gone through a clingy phase yet?

Breastfed babies may sometimes seem fussier, but that’s just how they communicate their needs. Far from making babies “too dependent,” breastfeeding helps strengthen the bond between mother and child, building trust and emotional security. 💛

Don’t stress, mama. Clinginess is normal, healthy, and a sign your little one trusts you as their safe place. 🤱

What does a good latch actually look like?

A deep, comfortable latch is key for both milk transfer and protecting your ni***es. If it hurts the whole time or feels shallow, your baby might not be latched deeply enough.

Swipe through this list and save it for later. A small adjustment can make a big difference. And remember, it is never too late to improve latch or ask for help.

Is my baby using me as a pacifier?
This is one of the most common questions I get.
Here’s the short answer: Babies nurse for many reasons.

Hunger is one of them, but so is comfort, connection, regulation, and bonding.
Comfort nursing is not a bad habit. It is not spoiling your baby. It is a biologically normal behavior that helps them feel safe and calm.

If your baby is always at the breast and you are feeling touched out, it is okay to take a breath and set limits when needed. But never feel guilty for being your baby’s safe place.

“Why is my baby always rooting, even after a full feed?”

If your baby is turning their head, opening their mouth, or sucking on their hands shortly after feeding, it doesn’t always mean they are still hungry. Rooting is a reflex, and sometimes it just means they are tired, seeking comfort, or even overstimulated.

It’s not always about milk. Babies are complex little people and feeding is about more than just hunger.
