The #1 mistake most parents make… cranking the pump suction up TOO HIGH hoping to get more milk!

More suction does not always equal more milk! We recommend using the LOWEST most effective suction on your pump that moves milk well for you.

BUT WAIT, if you find you HAVE to use higher suction levels on your pump to remove milk, some fine tuning may be in order!

We want to check things like:
1. Fl**ge sizing
2. Pump quality
3. What settings you’re using
4. If all those check out, make sure there are not underlying conditions effecting your letdown reflex

A measurement is a great STARTING POINT (not the end all be all) comment SUPPLIES and we will send you to our FREE printable and where you can get all of the pumping supplies you may need!

And when I tell you, often the most frustrating things we “hear” as professionals is straight from another professionals mouth, opinion, or perspective 😅😅

It’s Friday y’all and we made it: let’s hear the most ridiculous thing you heard this week! 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

I’m tired grandpa 😮‍💨

Tired of families being told “try more tummy time and recheck at 6 months old” when their infant has severe plagiocephaly, and then being denied a therapy referral.

Early intervention MATTERS. And sometimes the reason tummy time feels virtually impossible is because a baby has muscle tightness, weakness, or limited neck movement. “Do more” doesn’t address what’s making it so hard.

When head flattening is severe and helmet evaluation is on the table, we need timely assessment. We shouldn’t be spending valuable weeks making parents prove they’ve tried hard enough while the window for effective treatment gets smaller.

And the physician isn’t paying for the therapy by placing the referral. We’re asking for an ASSESSMENT by a qualified professional.

A pediatric PT or OT has the training to evaluate movement, strength, positioning, and function, and recommend an individualized plan that goes beyond “more tummy time.”

As lactation professionals we are consistently collaborating with other members of the care team since we manage the DYAD- meaning the parent and feeding infant. We send reports to OB offices, pediatrician offices, release providers, body workers, etc to keep everyone looped in on the plan and aware. This should be the bare minimum for the ENTIRE TEAM!

Send the damn referral. 👏

We have been there, the discomfort and tightness sets in and all of a sudden you feel the panic of COULD THIS BE MASTITIS?!

Mastitis is an inflammatory process inside of your breast caused by an unresolved clogged duct.

In the beginning, mastitis is NOT considered a bacterial infection. However, if not treated, it can easily turn into one and may require antibiotic therapy- YES that means mastitis does not ALWAYS require antibiotics!

Symptoms of mastitis include red and swollen area in the breast, fever, fatigue and decrease in milk supply on the affected side.

How does mastitis differ from clogged ducts?
Well a clogged duct is A clogged duct (ductal narrowing) happens when an area around the milk duct gets inflamed and the duct gets compressed by local swelling. This causes a painful lump to emerge and you may experience breast redness accompanied by reduced milk output.

If you develop a fever, you typically have about 24-48 hours before antibiotics may be needed. This is when you want to add the BAIT protocol into your day and reach out to your IBCLC for support.

Comment BAIT and we will send you the full protocol breakdown!

Call your doctor if your symptoms are not improving within 24-48h of BAIT treatment. Most antibiotics are safe to take while breastfeeding.

Often antibiotics are given before BAIT management is used. Antibiotics address bacterial infection, but not inflammation so you may experience a slight relief in mastitis symptoms from antibiotics but often don’t fully heal if the root cause is not addressed.

If you have ever been told your anatomy makes you 100% required to use a tool, try again 😅

There are situations that may require a ni**le shield or additional support, however we often find it is just how the education and skill is being presented.

Babies don’t ni**le feed, they BREASTfeed, we just have to help kick in those feeding reflexes to get us where we need to be!

That 4 month mark is creeping up and you are considering starting solids with your baby, HARD STOP before you go any farther.

Major health organizations all recommend waiting on solids until your baby is about 6 months old AND showing signs of readiness. Prior to this point your baby’s still at a point of relying on only breastmilk or formula as their main nutrition source.

It is also important to ensure your baby is showing the other signs of readiness prior to introducing solids too in order to keep them safe!

Signs of readiness look like (ALL signs should be met, this is not an either or situation)
- Being 6 months old
- Sit upright with minimal support for a prolonged period of time
- Good head and neck control
- Has interest in food (this often comes prior to 6 months as they are developing and noticing things around them, but interest alone does not = readiness).
- Loss of the tongue thrust reflex
-Can bring objects to their mouth, self feeding is optimal when introducing solids

Your baby possessing some of these signs, but not all of them can put them at risk if solids are introduced too early. We recommend waiting until all signs are reached. If you are finding that the 6 month mark is creeping up close and your baby is not meeting some of these readiness signs or milestones we recommend checking in with your IBCLC so they can assist with next steps!
