We discuss three important things parents should understand about infant feeding. First, while pediatricians are wonderful generalists, they receive limited formal training in breastfeeding and feeding compared to IBCLCs who specialize in this area. Second, feeding challenges are often more complex than they appear and require detailed evaluation of factors like latch mechanics, milk transfer, oral function, and feeding coordination. Third, we all bring our own personal experiences and perspectives to the advice we give, which can shape how we approach feeding challenges. Sometimes the right support at the right time makes all the difference.

We talk about three things every breastfeeding mom should know: why a huge freezer stash isn’t the goal for most families, how full bedtime feedings don’t work for every baby, and why milk supply issues need personalized evaluation rather than internet hacks. We emphasize that your body is probably not broken—you just need proper support to see the full picture of what’s happening with your baby’s feeding.

This first image has been floating around social media as if this is what milk production actually looks like inside the breast.

It isn’t accurate.

I understand why it’s compelling. It makes milk production look like a few large sacs storing milk, almost like containers waiting to be emptied.

But that is not how the breast works.

Milk is produced in millions of microscopic structures called alveoli. These are tiny, grape-like clusters of milk-producing cells distributed throughout the breast. Each alveolus is incredibly small — far too small to see with the naked eye.

Milk is continuously produced by these cells and moves through a branching network of ducts when your baby nurses or when you pump.

The second image I shared shows a more accurate representation of this anatomy. However, it is enlarged thousands of times for visualization. In reality, these structures are microscopic. You would never see them this large inside the human body. The enlargement simply helps illustrate how milk-producing cells connect to the duct system.

Your breasts are not made of a few large storage chambers.

They are made of millions of microscopic milk-producing units working continuously.

This distinction matters, because when people think milk is stored in large reservoirs, they assume supply is fixed or limited by storage space.

It isn’t.

Milk production is driven by demand. The more milk that is removed, the more your body is signaled to produce.

Your breasts are living, dynamic, responsive organs. They are never truly “empty,” and they are not passive storage containers.

Understanding this helps you work with your body instead of worrying that you’ve “run out.”

Your body is designed to produce milk continuously in response to your baby.

It’s truly amazing!

✨ Calling New + Established DFW IBCLCs Ready to Grow in 2026 ✨

Big congratulations to everyone who just passed boards and is stepping into private practice this year — you did it! And to those of you who’ve been in practice but feel stuck, under-booked, or capped by insurance limitations… this is for you too.

I’m opening a very limited number of spots inside two pathways:

👩🏻‍⚕️RN-IBCLC Private Practice Mentorship (DFW only)
For newer RN-IBCLCs coming from the hospital world who want hands-on business + clinical strategy to build a REAL thriving practice.

🤝 Referral Partner Network (DFW RN or Non RN IBCLCs)
For IBCLCs who want:
• More leads
• Access to major insurance plans
• Business strategy + support
• Consistent growth without being siloed

This is relationship-based, and intentionally kept small. No MLM energy. No competition culture. Just collaboration, strategy, and growth.

If you:
✅ Want more volume
✅ Want better systems
✅ Want access to plans you may not be able to take right now
✅ Or feel like you’re missing key private practice pieces

Then let’s talk.

📩 DM me or email me at nichole@nicholemccloy.com to start the conversation.

**For solo practitioners, not groups**

If you have an Anthem plan that is a corporate plan and you live in Texas… if you’ve been told you don’t have lactation benefits or you have to hit an out of network deductible first you are likely being lied to. 99% of the time the person who’s speaking to you is reading off of a script and they have no idea what they’re talking about.

BCBSTX is making things harder for ALL Anthem/BCBS families in Texas - but if your plan is from another state and you work for a large corporation…we can help!
