“Your milk supply probably didn’t suddenly disappear at 8 weeks.”

Many parents notice feeding changes around 6–12 weeks and assume their milk supply dropped.

But sometimes early fast milk flow can hide feeding challenges that only become noticeable once supply begins to regulate.

In Blog #3 of my series The Other Side of Milk Supply, I explore why this happens and what parents can look for.

Because breastfeeding is not just about milk production.

Breastfeeding is a two-person system.
Milk supply depends on milk removal.

Breastfeeding can look like it’s going well… and still be challenging underneath the surface.

A good latch doesn’t always mean milk is being transferred efficiently.

Some babies latch well but rely more on compression than suction to get milk. Over time, this can make feeding harder for them and may influence milk supply.

In Blog #2 of the series The Other Side of Milk Supply, we explore the difference between latch and milk transfer and the subtle signs that a baby may be working harder during feeds.

Because breastfeeding is not just about milk production—it’s about how milk is removed.

New blog series ✨

Many mothers think low milk supply means their body isn’t producing enough milk.

But breastfeeding is actually a two-person system.

Milk supply depends on how effectively milk is removed—and that depends on how baby feeds.

In this new series, we'll be exploring how latch, suction, oral function, and feeding mechanics can influence milk supply.

Many parents land here because they’re trying to better understand something their child is experiencing.

Sometimes it's speech clarity or language development. Other times it’s feeding challenges, breastfeeding difficulties, mouth breathing, or questions about oral function.

As a speech language pathologist and lactation counselor, my work supports families across a range of areas, including:
• Breastfeeding and early feeding support
• Complex feeding and oral motor challenges
• Speech and language development
• Orofacial myofunctional therapy
• Mouth breathing and airway-related concerns
• Tongue ties and oral function

Because so many of these areas are connected, I’ve created educational resources to help parents understand the why behind what may be happening and what supportive next steps can look like.

On the blog, The Whole Picture, you’ll find articles and guides that explore these topics in a way that’s meant to be clear, practical, and parent-friendly.

My hope is that these resources help parents feel more informed and supported as they navigate their child’s development.

If you're new here, welcome!

I'm Alyssa, a speech language pathologist and certified lactation counselor who works with children and families navigating things like breastfeeding struggles, speech challenges, feeding problems, language difficulties, and oral function.

Many parents find this page when they’re wondering things like:
• Why is my child still drooling or mouth breathing?
• Why is eating so difficult or stressful?
• Why is my child hard to understand?
• Is something like tongue tie affecting feeding or speech?
• Is breastfeeding supposed to be this painful?

My work focuses on understanding how the whole system works together, so we can support newborns through children in ways that feel both effective and developmentally appropriate.

Here you’ll find:
• Education about lactation, speech, language, feeding, and airway development
• Guidance for parents navigating common challenges
• Blog resources that go deeper into these topics
• Insight into therapies like orofacial myofunctional and craniosacral therapy

If you’re a parent trying to understand what might help your child, you’re in the right place.

And if you’re a professional who works with children, I’m glad you’re here too.

Working with families and children is truly the heart of what I do, and I’m incredibly grateful for the trust so many of you have placed in me over the years.

Many parents reach out when they’re trying to understand challenges with speech, feeding, breathing, or oral function. Hearing another parent’s experience can make that first step feel a little less overwhelming.

If we’ve worked together and you feel comfortable sharing your experience, it can really help other families who may be searching for support for their child.

Thank you for allowing me to be part of your child’s journey. 💛

Part 2 of our Mouth Breathing Series: How Breathing Shapes Your Child’s Growth

Chronic mouth breathing isn’t just about sleep — it can influence jaw development, facial shape, and posture over time.

Notice your child often resting with lips open, chewing slowly, or holding their head forward? It could be a sign to explore early support.

Most parents don’t come in worried about “breathing patterns.”

They come in saying:
“He snores.”
“She’s always tired.”
“His mouth is just always open.”

Chronic mouth breathing isn’t about blame.
And it isn’t about fear.

It’s often the body adapting to something that needed support — enlarged tonsils, allergies, airway restriction, or a pattern that simply stuck.

But breathing influences sleep.
Sleep influences regulation, growth, attention, and learning.
So it’s worth paying attention to.

If this made you pause and think about your child, that’s usually your cue to gently explore further.

Is your child a mouth breather, a picky chewer, or struggling with speech?

Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT) helps kids’ mouths, tongues, and jaws work the way they’re meant to — making breathing, chewing, swallowing, and speech easier.

For younger kids, we focus on play-based oral motor skills, feeding and body support.

Want to learn more? Look for an upcoming blog where I break down what OMT looks like for kids and how parents can help at home.

I just shared a new blog on The Whole Picture 🤍

Tongue ties aren’t a fad — but they also aren’t the whole story. In this post, I walk through a bit of history, why there’s so much controversy, and why function, feeding, sleep, and the whole body matter more than anatomy alone.

If you’ve felt confused by mixed opinions or stuck in the gray area, this one’s for you.

Tongue ties can be really confusing — especially when you’re hearing different opinions.

It’s rarely black and white. What matters most is how your baby or child is actually doing: feeding, sleep, breathing, eating, speaking, and overall comfort — not just a diagnosis.

My approach is gentle, collaborative, and focused on function, with support before and after when it’s needed.

If you’re feeling unsure or stuck in the gray area, you’re not alone 🤍 Please feel free to reach out.
