When asked about Mom Shaming this what I think…but guess what it’s a reality. So let’s STOP 🛑. It all starts in pregnancy, what you eat, whether or not you get an epidural, breastfeed or formula feed, spanking or no spanking, gentle parenting or not, BLW or purées, etc.

I’ll tell you what I DO think. Your baby is just that YOURS! You know what that means? You know your baby best and YOU DO YOU GIRL. ✌🏼 love you all💕

Is your baby biting at the breast?? Here are some possible reasons why and what you can do to prevent it from happening again.

✨your let down may be slow and they’re impatient. You can massage the breast and use warm compress before latching.
✨they’re distracted-try going into a quiet room to nurse.
✨teething-use a tether before a feeding session.
✨they have a cold-they’re frustrated because they can’t breathe well through their nose. I have an essential oil for this!

What can you do?!
✨gently place your finder into their mouth to break the latch while saying “no, no”.
✨bring the baby closer to your breast so that they open their mouth to breathe therefore releasing their bite.

What NOT to do:
✨Anything that can cause a breast aversion. This can include shouting, flicking, or any sort of painful/negative stimulus. Breast aversions can lead to a breastfeeding strike-speaking from experience this is the WORST!!
✨pull them off the breast while still latched-this can do damage to your tissue and can be extremely painful!

What did you learn?! Let me know how your breastfeeding experience is going! 💕

Is my baby getting enough milk? It’s a question that all new moms wonder. It can cause needless worry and anxiety. Here are a few signs that your baby is getting enough milk!💕

• They are peeing a normal amount. Did you know that in the first 24 hours we expect babies to pee once! Day 2: 2 pee diapers, day 3: 3 pee diapers, day 4: 4 pee diapers, day 5: 5 pee diapers and day 6: 6-8 wet diapers per day.

• On the third day you should be hearing a swallow every 1-3 sucks. Your postpartum nurse should show you what this sounds like

• By day 4-5 the poop should change from dark green to yellow.

• On the third day your baby should also be having periods of being alert and active during the day.

• Finally-weight gain! Did you know that it’s normal for breastfed babies to lose up to 10% of their birth weight! By two weeks most babies are back to their birth weight!

• Last piece of advice-if you are EVER concerned, reach out to your Pediatrician! What is one thing you wished your nurse told you about breastfeeding? Comment below💌

Guys, when my patients ask to wait for me to be there when they deliver their baby…I mean I can’t even. It’s such a gift to be able to help a woman welcome her baby into this world. I get to take care of some warrior women💪🏼 #pregnacy #laboranddelivery #laboranddeliverynurse #birth by @labornursestacey
