Night waking is normal, protective against SIDS, and grows your baby’s brain💪🧠😊

This 2024 study describes what’s normal for night-waking in nursing babies 6 to 12 months old. Not surprisingly, 97% woke and nursed at least once during the night. It’s reassuring to know that night nursing at this stage is age-appropriate, not the sign of faulty parenting or a sleep disorder.

Want help figuring out which bottle is best for your baby? See an IBCLC. Lactation consultants understand infant mouth mechanics so we can identify which bottle will work best for your baby.

I carry multiple ni***es with me to try them out and see which is easiest for your baby…and you. Any bottle with more than 3 parts is an automatic “no” for me!

Raising a child isn’t 50/50. The primary parent carries more of the household load, even when both parents work full time.

Before a baby arrives, it’s important to talk about how you will support each other to manage the house and kid.

After birth, even if the physical tasks appear to be taken care of 50/50, remember that one of you just grew a human from a cell and is recovering in an unfamiliar body. One of you is doing their “50” while also nourishing said cell with their body.

Paint on glass bottles often has lead in it. I recommend using glass bottles that have markings etched in it rather than painted markings.

Human milk is amazing!

A groundbreaking study provides the first global quantification of breastfeeding’s role in preventing chronic diseases.

The data is stunning 📈 and the study reinforces what we have long advocated: breastfeeding protection, promotion, and support are lifesaving, cost-effective, and essential.
