Too good not to reshare 🎃

This is one of my favorite Halloween tips to share with parents. If you want to babywear AND look festive for the holiday, you need just a few simple things:

🐈‍⬛ A small pet Halloween costume
👶🏼 Your favorite soft structured carrier
👒 The accessories of your choice

That’s it!

Are you planning on trying this Halloween costume hack? Let me know in the comments, and please share photos if you’re comfortable. I’d love to show off your creativity in my stories! ☺️

(Reminder: Do not do this with any costumes that prevent proper carrier wearing or restrict access to buckles or straps!)

Because comfort is key 💗

Don’t live in Loudoun County? No problem! We still offer virtual appointments and in-person visits at our Tysons Corner office, which is home to our ever-growing pump bar 🍼

They’re such a pain (literally) 😭

Protecting that liquid gold 💛🥛✨

🍼 As an IBCLC, I get asked all the time about breast milk storage, so I thought I’d make an easy visual to help answer some of my most-asked questions.

➡️ Scroll through the slides above for current, research-based guidelines for how long breast milk can safely be stored in different conditions.

😯 If any of the suggested timelines surprise you, it’s important to keep in mind that breast milk is brimming with bacteria-fighting antibodies that help keep milk safe for baby.

Do you have any more breast milk storage questions? Feel free to ask them in the comments below - I’m always happy to help! 🗨️⤵️

Scheduled vs. On-Demand Feeding

🤱 For years, parents were told that scheduled feedings were the gold standard—but research now highlights the benefits of feeding on cue for both babies AND caregivers. So how do you decide what’s best for your little one?

In a recent blog post, I break down the differences, explore the benefits, and discuss how to find a feeding approach that works for YOUR family. 💛

💌 Are you struggling to find that balance? Don’t hesitate to reach out and schedule a consultation with me!
