You choose what you prioritize, that’s it. That’s the post!

Before you blame low supply watch this video. Clinical low supply is real, not everyone has it. Two thing can be true at one time. If you are latching make sure your baby is doing their part and effectively moving milk. If you are pumping make sure you have a pump that works well for your body, properly fit flanges, and consistency in removal. You’d be surprised what the right support and tools and do for your breastfeeding journey

INFANT FORMULA RECALL 🚨 If you are using Nara Orgsnic Formila stop using immediately. CDC is reporting three cases of infant botulism associated with use of this formula. https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2026/infant-botulism-outbreak-linked-to-powdered-infant-formula-june-2026.html

Breastfeeding is a journey between two people meaning you may not be the problem. Oral dysfunction and tension can contribute to less effective milk removal and increase discomfort in one or both people. Get assessed by someone trained and the answers your journey deserves. Follow your breastfeeding homegirl for empowerment, support and guidance during your journey

Before you ask. You don’t have to. Happy Pride Month

It’s not the formula, it’s the predatory marketing. Formula companies use fear and other predatory marketing tactics to convince vulnerable parents that their products are needed. Does formula provide nutrition and save lives? Yes Is formula a feeding alternative for babies? Yes Does every journey have to include formula? No Don’t be convinced you can’t, get the support so that you can.

You trusted your body to create a whole human, now trust your body to feed what it created. Seeking support isn’t failure it’s trusting someone to help guide you through the process.

Feeding a baby is hard, choose your hard. Follow your breastfeeding homegirl for more support and empowerment during your journey. If things are way too hard, check the link in bio and book that consult.

For the moms choosing to breastfeed publicly: Breastfeeding is a normal thing. Don’t feel bullied to cover up or isolate unless that is your choice.

For the moms choosing to continue their journey past 1 year:
Normal weaning age globally is up to age 7. The breastfeeding journey is dictated by the person providing the milk and person(s) consuming it.

Your baby, your body, you journey and your choice.
