Pregnancy and postpartum don’t just change your body..they change your mind, your heart, your identity.

And yet… so many moms are told to “just be grateful” while quietly drowning.

My mission as a lactation consultant goes far beyond feedings! It’s about creating a safe space where moms feel seen, heard, and supported - without pressure, guilt, or being pushed in any direction. Whether you breastfeed, combo feed, pump, supplement, or choose something different entirely… your decisions are valid!!

There is no one “right” way to be a mom.
There IS a right way to be supported!!

You deserve care that honors your mental health just as much as your baby’s needs. I’m here to walk beside you, not ahead of you, not behind you..every step of the way! 💗🤱

You are not weak for struggling.
You are not failing.
You are human. And you are doing an incredible job.

McAfee Lactation is always a safe space! ✨

My daughter-in-law. She assisted me for a while, so some of you may recognize her. She has stepped into her true calling and is amazing! Reach out with questions or for support.

The ARRIVE study was glommed onto back in 2018. It stated that it was safer to induce at 39 weeks. Turns out that was bulls*!t.
But OBs and hospitals (and the lawyers) will not let it go. Why?
**Because its much easier to control a woman who isn't in labor yet. **Its much easier to schedule a labor M-F from 9-5.
**It's much easier to pump them full of pitocin where they are begging for an epidural.

With a major winter storm potentially affecting dozens of states, we recognize the concerns many have about stored milk.

Updated to add: A stand alone freezer will maintain temperature for 48 hours in a power outage if unopened. A freezer compartment within a fridge will maintain temperature for 24 hours if unopened.

[Image Description] Photo of a wintery scene. Text on top reads, "Power outage? Worried about your frozen milk? Try to keep the freezer door completely shut while power is out. Once power is restored, check to see if there are any ice crystals that remain in the bags. If there are any frozen ice crystals at all, it may be refrozen." The La Leche League USA logo is below the text.
