Fun Fact Friday 🌿 Did you know that nursing and bottle feeding directly affect the growth and development of the palate and facial structure as your infant grows older? Bottle and breastfeeding impact the jaw growth, nasal passage, palate and airway as well as it helps maintain the shape of the palate. Pretty crazy! When you are looking for a bottle, I will always recommend a long sloped nipple to help “mimic” the human nipple as closely as it can. 🌿 #pumpingmom #pump #pumpingmama #pumpingmilk #pumpingmoms #pumpingtips #breastpumping #breastfeeding #breastfeedingmom #breastfedbaby #breastfeedingmama #breastfeed #breastfriends #breastfedbabies #breastfeedingjourney #lactationsupport #lactation #lactating #lactatingmom #lactationconsultant #lactationcounselor #lactationhelp #handexpressionbymon #handexpressedmilk #handexpressingmilk #cesareansection #cesareanbirth #cesareanwithoutfear
Barriers to Breastfeeding 🌿 This one might ruffle some feathered. People often think “oh you just go ahead and put boob in baby’s mouth” While yes that is ONE step. But, leading up to the birth process to trigger that prolactin things happen. There are major medical interventions that can affect the delay of Lactogenesis stage 2. The biggest one being labor inducing medications or in this photo drugs and chemicals. These labor inducing medications can cause a cascade of issues whether it’s baby is sleepy, they’re not as aware. Cesareans can cause a delay due to separation and not getting that first golden hour. Yes, cesareans are very necessary and very needed when it arises. Mechanical and Physical forces, being forceps or vacuum can affect the breastfeeding journey. Limited mobility, such as swaddling. Swaddling restricts the movement and doesn’t ensue proper body position. Remember, nose to nips and tummy to mummy. Ears, hips, shoulders and knees should all be in a straight line. Swaddling prevents this. Fetal monitoring and IV fluids can also be a barrier to the initiation process of breastfeeding. Other barriers to breastfeeding such as separation (mentioned above), interventions (mentioned above), swaddling, pacifiers, supplementing and medical conditions are all barrier to breastfeeding. Contact a lactation professional prenatally to discuss what your breastfeeding plan is and what your birth plan is to see what would be best for you and your family. 🤍🌿 #pumpingmom #pump #pumpingmama #pumpingmilk #pumpingmoms #pumpingtips #breastpumping #breastfeeding #breastfeedingmom #breastfedbaby #breastfeedingmama #breastfeed #breastfriends #breastfedbabies #breastfeedingjourney #lactationsupport #lactation #lactating #lactatingmom #lactationconsultant #lactationcounselor #lactationhelp #handexpressionbymon #handexpressedmilk #handexpressingmilk #cesareansection #cesareanbirth #cesareanwithoutfear

When we assess the posture of most new moms today, whether they’re nursing or bottle feeding, what we find is a posture characteristically rounded forward with shoulders rolled in and the head in a downward position, gazing toward the baby🤱or a phone in hand🤳 Among mothers who are pumping, we also see a similar, forward-flexed position. Even when new moms aren’t breastfeeding, the 10–20 pounds of added weight that they carry as they go about their days can lead to their whole body tilting forward. Posture is critical to our physical, physiological, and psychological well-being. It’s critical for all stages of life, especially the early stages of motherhood, when round-the-clock support for the baby is most pressing.⏰ Chiropractic care is an essential component because it directly addresses structural patterns that run below the level of conscious awareness. Additionally, chiropractic adjustments intrinsically down-regulate the sympathetic response and promote parasympathetic and vagal nerve activity⚡️ 👉While feeding or holding your child, sit or stand tall, with your chest open and shoulders down and back. There should be a sensation of the body, lengthening upward and expanding outward, with the torso resting on a balanced pelvis and secure lower back. 👉If your feet don’t reach the floor while you’re feeding your baby, use a footstool. Stretch your chest and your hamstrings, and take time to stretch your other muscles and ligaments when you can. 👉Invest in an ergonomic breastfeeding pillow for support. This shouldn’t be a substitute for ideal posture, but an aid to it. 👉Schedule at least 10 minutes of quiet alone time every day to help reboot your nervous system to autonomic balance. #breastfeeding #posture #chiropractic #wellnessmama #crunchymama #welladjustedbabies #breastfedbabies #neckpain #shoulderpain #backpain
Breastfeeding promotes better health for mothers and children alike. WHO recommends exclusive breastfeeding starting within one hour after birth until a baby is 6 months old. Nutritious complementary foods should then be added while continuing to breastfeed for up to 2 years or beyond. There are innumerable benefits of breast feeding the baby. The most important is creating a bonding between mother and baby. Its the best way to provide quality care to the neonate. Inseparable aspect of nurturing a baby. Not only to babies; breast feeding helps to improve health of mother by fastening the recovery and provides mental well being to the mother.

Postpartum hormones are no joke. One moment you’re staring at your new baby, the biggest smile on your face, and the next you’re bawling your eyes out – while the baby does, too. Even if you don’t feel that you are dealing with Postpartum Depression, postpartum mental health is a struggle for many new parents trying to get back to themselves after having a baby. If you’re feeling the blues or not like yourself, you are NOT alone. Especially if you are dealing with low milk supply, you may be worrying constantly and on high alert, which can be draining for an already exhausted mama.

Okay, hear me out….👇 I know you are all going to get mad at me about this 🙄, but…let’s talk about the “SNOO”. The SNOO is marketed as “the smartest baby bed ever made.” The baby is placed in a tight swaddle blanket that is strapped into the bassinet. Whenever the baby cries, the SNOO starts rocking and using white noise to encourage the baby to go back to sleep. Sounds amazing right? 😍 Well…not exactly…🤷♀️ Swipe 👉 to learn more about the “Snoo” and some potential drawbacks of the “Snoo”. 😍 Love your Snoo and want to continue using it?

Welcome back to Milk Minutes! The IG police decided to be difficult Monday evening, and remove lots of breastfeeding posts and videos. 😡 . Apparently I am trying to obtain follows, likes and comments. My Milk Minutes was removed, so if you listened I apologize, as today is a duplicate. 😩 . Trying this one as a post, as it is super important if you’re wanting to breastfeed, make a full supply or just for overall education! . Milk production is “supply & demand”….or is it??? If it was so simple, we wouldn’t have moms pumping their brains out, with little to no increase in output. . It is a bit more complex than this! There are 4 critical pieces to the milk making equation, as noted by IBCLCs Diana West and Lisa Marasco. . So what IS needed to achieve a full milk supply for your baby? . 1. Sufficient glandular (or milk making tissue) in the breasts AND . 2. Intact nerve-pathways and ducts in the breasts and nipple/areola complex AND . 3. Adequate hormones & hormone receptors, and I am going to add sufficient/balanced nutrients to this, as there are A LOT of nutritional deficiencies which can affect milk supply AND . 4. Adequate, frequent, effective milk removal from the breasts. . Which piece surprised you the most? . References: . West, D. & Marasco, L. (2009). The Breastfeeding Mother’s Guide to Making More Milk.

Spoiler Alert: Contact napping is 100% NORMAL! Here’s why!👇 II hate to break it to you but, it is unrealistic for parents to think their baby will sleep in their crib during the 4th trimester. 🤷♀️ In fact, I would go out on a limb and say your baby will likely sleep everywhere BUT their crib when they’re a newborn. 😮💨 Here’s why: 🟢 Reduce FOMO: for some babies it comes down to temperament. Babies who are very sensitive and attached sleepers often need a parent to not have FOMO. 🟢 4th trimester invisible umbilical cord: babies don’t know/realize they’re separate from you still in the 4th trimester. They need contact to support and regulate their nervous system. 🟢 Co-regulation: The co-regulation of emotions is crucial for babies, as they are incapable of controlling their own emotions to feel safe and secure. Therefore, they prefer contact naps to feel that sense of security through feeling your heartbeat and warmth. 🟢 Bonding: contact naps give other caregivers and family a chance to bond with the baby. 🟢 Milk production: skin to skin contact is one of the most powerful ways to increase your milk supply. Want to learn more? I talk all about this with Kelsey Butkevic @sleep.easy.consulting on episode 49 of my podcast! Comment “podcast” down below ⬇️ and I’ll send you the link to listen today!

Though the days may differ greatly in frequency and timing, for me it's a toss up between the feed before bed and that gorgeous feed when I come home from work (or anywhere for a longer period if time!) There's nothing like that reconnection feed when you both just sink it into it and there's that feeling of being exactly where you belong that every moment 🥰 I also adore our bed tine feed...after a long day of discovery I love hearing when he let's out that exhalation breath as if to say 'this is my place' and it brings me such joy. I also get to sit and rock for that it of time. One of the many things love about breastfeeding is the fact it makes me stop! It makes me take a break and switch off if only for a few minutes! I'd love to hear about your favourite feeds below! 🥰 #ilovebreastfeeding #breastfeedingmamas #irishbreastfeedingmums #breastfeedinginireland #irishbreastfeedinggifts #mybreastfeedingjourney #irishbreastfeedingstories #connectingwithbaby #mybaby #breastfedbabies
Breastfeeding is one of the most effective ways to ensure child health and survival. However, contrary to WHO recommendations, fewer than half of infants under 6 months old are exclusively breastfed. Breastmilk is the ideal food for infants. It is safe, clean and contains antibodies which help protect against many common childhood illnesses. Breastmilk provides all the energy and nutrients that the infant needs for the first months of life, and it continues to provide up to half or more of a child’s nutritional needs during the second half of the first year, and up to one third during the second year of life. Did you know that? ✨ #breastfedbaby #breastfed #breastfedbabies #breastfeedingmom #breastfeedinginpublic
No doubt that as a breastfeeding mom, you are HUNGRY. Like a deep, alarming sense of hunger that you’ve never experienced before -maybe not even in pregnancy! Did you know that nursing moms burn calories just producing breastmilk? In fact, most doctors recommend an extra 400-500 calories a day to help you maintain your milk supply and properly nourish your body. As a nursing mother, have you felt the hunger? Make those extra calories count! Lactation treats, such as cookies, granola, pumpkin bread, or pretzels, are a fabulous way to help you ensure that you’re not only taking in extra calories but also eating the types of foods that will help to boost your milk supply. . . . . . . . . #breastfeedingmom #breastfeedingmama #breastfedbaby #breastfeedingjourney #breastfed #breastfedbabies #breastfeedingtips #breastfeedingsupport #breastfeedwithoutfear #breastfeedingisbeautiful #breastfeedingmoms #breastfeedingbaby #breastfeedinglife #breastfeedingmommy #breastfeedingproblems #breastfeedingawareness #breastfeedingmommies #normalizebreastfeeding #bessiesbest #makemoremilk

Da sind wir. Meine Tochter stillend neben mir und umhüllt von dem beruhigenden Geräusch der Wellen. Unter den Füßen spüre ich den warmen Sand. Im Moment gefangen denke ich an diese unglaublich Reise der Mutterschaft. Es ist ein Moment der Verbindung - nicht nur zwischen meiner Tochter und mir, sondern auch mit der Natur. Mit dem Leben selbst. In ihren Augen sehe ich die Welt voller Neugier und Unschuld und mein Herz füllt sich mit Dankbarkeit. Für diese kostbaren Augenblicke. Für jedes Gefühl. Für alles was kommt. Denn egal wie hart es manchmal ist, es zahlt sich verdammt nochmal aus. #breastfeedingmom #breastfeed #stillen #breastfedbabies #echtemamas #mamablogger #mamasein #zweifachmama #mädchenmama #bali #lombok #giliair

Milk Supply trigger ‼️ I am a slightly over producer whose supply has dropped (once at 3 months and again at 4 months) and I am playing catch up with my ever growing baby boy!!! I am back to work and trying to stick to a schedule every 3 hours. But have not have time to power pump in AM or PM like old times. BUT today I snuck in a power pump this AM. And woah was I surprised 😮 I have been increasing my water intake, remembering my prenatal, drinking one liquid iv or body armor a day, and trying to nurse more! Praying this supply increase sticks - We’re trying to make it 6 months but would love to make it a year! But we’re going through our backup freezer stash too so I’ll be nursing and pumping as long as I want him BF 🤪 Any BF-ing mamas got other tips to increase or just feeling down about supply? I love a good supportive mama chat! 💬 #duleynoted #kyduleynoted #motherhood #firstbabyinmythirties #pregnancyafterinfertility #firsttimemommy #firsttimemom #firsttimemama #newmom #newmomlife #momlife #newmomlifestyle #breastfedbaby #breastfed #breastfeedingmom #increasemilksupply #breastfedbabies
The Mastitis Protocol was recently updated in 2022. 🌿 Boyyyyyyyyyyy do I see some crazy things still being recommended for Mastitis and Engorgement. Only those things are damaging and can worsen the effects of Mastitis and engorgement. What’s the new protocol? 🌿 Find the root cause. Recurring engorgement and mastitis is NOT normal. There is physiological engorgement and pathological engorgement. We need to find out what is going on to have these come back. 🌿 Feed frequently and effectively. 🌿 Do not add in any extra pumping sessions. The “fullness” you are feeling is actually swelling in the surrounding tissues and breast. Adding that extra stimulation will just make that breast angry. 🌿 Ice packs and COOL compresses to help reduce the swelling. NO HEAT. Again, heat may exasperate the engorgement. Heat MAY improve the oxytocin uptake. Oxytocin is the hormone that triggers the prolactin. 🌿 Gentle breast massage from the areola upwards towards the breast. DO NOT USE ANY VIBRATION. Vibration will cause inflammation in the surround tissues and cause more breast “fullness.” It has the potential to damage the surrounding tissues. 🌿 Use an OTC anti-inflammatory nonsteroidal to help the pain. I’ve been through the abnormal part of the engorgement and it is not fun! The root cause for me were a couple things. With my first, it was due to oral restrictions and incorrect pump flange sizing. With my second, it was due to oral restrictions and not enough milk removal because of other motherly duties. Contact an IBCLC/CBS/CLC to help you with your engorgement and mastitis. #pumpingmom #pump #pumpingmama #pumpingmilk #pumpingmoms #pumpingtips #breastpumping #breastfeeding #breastfeedingmom #breastfedbaby #breastfeedingmama #breastfeed #breastfriends #breastfedbabies #breastfeedingjourney #lactationsupport #lactation #lactating #lactatingmom #lactationconsultant #lactationcounselor #lactationhelp #handexpressionbymon #handexpressedmilk #handexpressingmilk #cesareansection #cesareanbirth #cesareanwithoutfear
April is Cesarean Awareness Month. In the US as of 2022, 32.1% of live births were cesarean. If you think a cesarean is the “easy way out” you need a huge reality check. There are 7 layers of tissue that need to be cut through to reach baby. It is a major abdominal surgery. You have a higher risk of dying on the OR table than you do a vaginal birth. Cesarean recovery is the most brutal recovery I have ever gone through and I did it 2x. The trauma is beyond what you can imagine. We have a 2w check up and then go back to 6w. We aren’t given a belly binder, we aren’t referred out to a pelvic floor therapist, a core therapist. All while being sent home to care for a child you aren’t even supposed to hold standing up, or can’t because it feels like everything is going to fall out. There are life long side effects. Mine? I have severe scarring on my bladder, kidney tubes, bladder ureter, dense adhesions. I have diastasis recti. I planned an HBAC and ended up in another surgery. What was supposed to be my most healing and redemptive birth, traumatized me into the fear of getting pregnant again. When you tell a mom “you took the easy way out” “you’re not a real mother” please, think of the trauma that family endured. Some mothers don’t come out of that OR with their baby. Some husbands and newborns walk out of that OR without a mom and wife. Research your hospitals cesarean rates, research your providers. RESEARCH. RESEARCH. #pumpingmom #pump #pumpingmama #pumpingmilk #pumpingmoms #pumpingtips #breastpumping #breastfeeding #breastfeedingmom #breastfedbaby #breastfeedingmama #breastfeed #breastfriends #breastfedbabies #breastfeedingjourney #lactationsupport #lactation #lactating #lactatingmom #lactationconsultant #lactationcounselor #lactationhelp #handexpressionbymon #handexpressedmilk #handexpressingmilk #cesareansection #cesareanbirth #cesareanwithoutfear
