Physiologic norms in birth and infant feeding are so very important for babies, mommas, and the entire family.

“Did you ever wonder why the baby’s taken across the room? Why the cord is clamped fast, the mother left shaking, the lights so bright it feels like judgment?

Did you ever feel the stillness—the eerie quiet when the father’s hands are empty, the grandmother’s not in the room, and the newborn is nowhere near a breast?

It’s not just medicine.
It’s not just policy.
It’s a ritual.
And it’s not ours.”

– Abigail Iovine

In the current issue of Pathways, Abigail Iovine shares a powerful portrayal of the ritual of separation that’s been engineered into modern birth, and how it shapes our families, our communities, and our souls.

If you or someone you love is in need of lactation support, please contact me, or an IBCLC in your area.

If you’ve ever felt a sudden wave of sadness, anxiety, or unease right before your milk lets down, it might be Dysphoric Milk Ejection Reflex (D-MER). It’s real. It’s hormonal. And you’re not alone.

Here’s something small that can help:
💛 Chocolate.
💛 Or your favourite snack.
💛Or that funny video saved in your phone.

Some parents have found that pairing let-down with a comforting treat or gentle distraction helps ease the emotional dip. It’s not a cure, but it can shift the moment just enough to get through it with a little more ease.

Whether it’s a square of chocolate or a 30-second reel that makes you laugh, you deserve softness in the hard moments.

Call it physiology. Call it the innate intelligence of the human body. I call it perfection!

IIsn’t it amazing? Colostrum (the first milk) tailors its composition to each newborn's unique needs. This 2025 exploratory cross-sectional study found that the level of protein, carbs & fat in colostrum vary depending on whether a baby is born small for gestational age (SGA), appropriate for gestational age, or large for gestational age (LGA).

Happy Independence Day!

249 years ago, the Founding Fathers wrote and signed The Declaration of Independence, and the war for independence from Britain, in order to become the United States Of America, began.

Yes. It was a shameful time of slavery and a time of shameful behavior toward the indigenous people of this land.

And I also acknowledge that the vision of a brand new type of government—of the people, for the people, and by the people—with checks and balances to help prevent tyranny and totalitarianism—was indeed revolutionary at that time.

As a nation we have grown and evolved. Yet we still have far to go.

We must preserve all of our rights and freedoms as they are guaranteed in our US Constitution. We are truly blessed to live in this Constitutional Republic!

Any elected officials who write and pass more legislation which limits our rights, than they do protecting and preserving our rights, is not doing her or his job properly!

Happy birthday, USA.

Today is the 250th anniversary of the US Army; and it’s also Flag Day. G-d bless the USA and our service members who protect our nation and its constitution.

As an IBCLC, (international Board Certified Lactation Consultant) and infant doctor of chiropractic this photo really moved me!

Brazilian photographer, Pisco del Gaiso, was awarded the prestigious King of Spain International Award in 1993 for this photo. It shows a woman from the Guaja tribe in the Amazon rainforest breastfeeding a small wild boar whose mother had been shot by poachers.

10% from every sale here at Earthmonk goes to projects that support the indigenous people of the Brazilian Amazon. 🇧🇷

Momma mammals are designed with the perfect food for their babies!

Most people know that whales are mammals—but what’s less known is how they nurse their young. Unlike land mammals, baby whales aren’t breastfed through direct contact.

Instead, the mother whale releases her milk into the water while her calf is nearby. But here’s the fascinating part: whale milk is incredibly rich, with about 50% fat content. That makes it thick, sticky, and almost paste-like—so it doesn’t dissolve in water. This allows the baby whale to latch onto the floating milk and feed effectively.

Nature’s design couldn’t be more perfect.
