Breastfeeding is not just about milk. It’s about relationship. 🤱🏽❤️
Yes — breastmilk nourishes.
But breastfeeding also soothes, connects, repairs, attunes, and communicates. It’s a dance of eye contact, skin-to-skin, safety, and co-regulation. A space where babies feel seen, heard, and held — long before they have words.
It’s a two-way relationship, too.
Parents don’t just feed — they are fed by the oxytocin, the snuggles, the stillness.
But it’s not always easy. And when breastfeeding is hard, painful, or not what you imagined — it can hurt because it’s relational.
✨ That’s why skilled, compassionate breastfeeding care matters.
Because we’re not just helping a baby feed.
We’re supporting a relationship to grow.
