Dr. Strong is one of my favorite pediatric dentists by far. Always listening to parents and IBCLCs with an open mind and kind heart...oh and her releases are 🫰
Congratulations on this recognition!

Please help us congratulate our very own Dr. Katie Strong for being recognized by the Seventh District Dental Society. Dr. Strong is being awarded the Franklin J Halik Award this February for her commitment to the community. She leads mentorship programs for future dentists and also has offered many volunteer hours providing dental care to children in need around the city. Thank you Dr. Strong for all you do. We are so proud of you!

Over the weekend I had to privilege of attending Building Latching Skills course. I learned how to use a baby's reflexes to make feeding feel good for parents and babies. Who wouldn't want that?? ❤️🤱👶

The magic of Calendula is beautifully described in this post. You were probably given lanolin in the hospital, but you have many other (better) options that contain healing properties, such as calendula!

Today was a fill-my-cup kind of day! In honor of the Lycoming Clinton Breastfeeding Coalition had a meet-n-greet for local birthing and breastfeeding supports in the community. It was a great experience to see how many individuals and businesses we are lucky to have in Lycoming County. Please check out these services that can help support your birthing and feeding experience.🤱🤱👼🚼

The last picture is a group of women I am grateful and privileged to work with on a daily basis! ❤️

🚩Have you been told that your baby has a "mild tongue tie"? If so, that should be a 🚩to you that the person saying this most likely doesn't understand oral restriction. The tongue is either functioning as it should or it isn't. Your baby either has a tie or they don't. Have you ever met a woman who is mildly pregnant? No such thing.

If your baby is struggling with feeding, please reach out to a knowledgeable IBCLC that can help explain why and guide you through the process of functional feeding.
