🤱🏽 August is National Breastfeeding Month

Breastfeeding is more than a personal decision—it’s a public health issue.

This month, we recognize the vital role of breastfeeding in improving health outcomes for both babies and birthing parents.

🔍 Why It Matters:
▪️ Provides essential nutrients and antibodies to protect infants
▪️ Linked to a lower risk of postpartum depression and improved maternal mental health
▪️ Strengthens the bond between parent and child
▪️ Reduces the risk of asthma, obesity, and certain infections in infants

📣 National Breastfeeding Month is a call to action for:
✔️ Increasing access to lactation consultants and peer support
✔️ Supporting policies that allow time and space for breastfeeding in public and at work
✔️ Ensuring health equity for all families, regardless of background

📍 Need breastfeeding support in Houston?
✅ The Women’s Hospital of Texas Breastfeeding Center – Expert lactation care
✅ WIC Peer Support Program – Breastfeeding help and community for WIC families
✅ Healthy Start Houston – Personalized maternal & infant health support

📲 Talk to your provider or visit these resources to find the support that works best for your family.

🌺 July is Fibroids Awareness Month

Let’s talk about the health of Houston women.
🩺 Uterine fibroids—noncancerous growths of the uterus—affect up to 80% of women by age 50. But in Houston, the impact hits differently.

💔 Why This Matters in Houston:

🔸 Black women in Harris County are 3x more likely to be hospitalized for fibroid-related complications compared to white women.
🔸 Many go years undiagnosed, often told their symptoms are “normal” or dismissed as routine.
🔸 Heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, and infertility deeply affect quality of life.

📊 Source:
Texas Health and Human Services Report on Maternal Morbidity and Disparities in Texas
CDC Office of Minority Health

🚨 Common Symptoms Include:

🔴 Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
💥 Pelvic pain or pressure
🚻 Frequent urination or constipation
😣 Painful s*x or lower back pain
🤰🏽 Difficulty getting pregnant

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to suffer in silence.
