It is such a problem that many pediatricians and nurses don’t give accurate or helpful breastfeeding advice 😕
Maybe this book will help

What Doctors Don’t Know About Breastfeeding describes the many ways that doctors and other healthcare providers undermine breastfeeding by not knowing basic breastfeeding management. https://ow.ly/LkYq50XjiNV

Yes, it can take some time to determine if a tongue needs to be released. Often enough, supportive therapies, careful positioning at the breast, and time can improve breastfeeding without a release.

This OB has said that waiting to cut the cord until it’s white “isn’t a thing,” although I always do it, but I applaud her efforts to provide education and call out all of the misinformation from social media influencers who are looking for a following and whose goal is to make money. I appreciate her sass because she is educated and knows what she’s taking about.

I owe my profession of IBCLC to La Leche League. My mom became a Leader in 1961, and growing up in LLL probably greatly influenced my interest in becoming a midwife ❤️

Happy, happy 69th birthday, La Leche League! We remain forever thankful for the vision of seven women who changed the world, one nursing dyad at a time. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

I have chosen to be off call for the months of May & June 2026. I was sad to refer a beloved client to another midwife, but it’s necessary for longevity in this work ☮️

I was honored to catch Stephanie’s 4th baby last year. She’s a nurse who assists me in my practice, most recently on Wednesday! 😊
