My passion for helping and teaching breastfeeding mothers came when I was working in the hospital as a postpartum and nursery nurse.

Breast engorgement is a common thing that often happens in the first week after delivery as the mature milk begins to transition in.
It can also occur with having excess fluid that is present after labor and delivery due to IV fluids, and it can make latching on to the breast difficult.
Reverse pressure softening is a technique that can help remove this excess fluid
from around the ni**le to help make latching on to the breast easier.

The steps include:
*Place your fingers on the ar**la on each side of the ni**le
*Push gently and inward
*Hold steady pressure for 1-3 min
*Attempt to latch quickly after the pressure is released
*Can repeat as often as needed
*There are different finger placements that can be used

Pumping is still Breastfeeding!!

2 days ago was World Breast Pumping Day!!

My passion involves supporting clients who are breastfeeding, pumping and performing any type of expression of their milk.
I just want to take some time to acknowledge all the work and dedication that goes into breast pumping and expression. Whether it was done for a day, a week, month, or a year.

You ROCK and are AMAZING!!
Happy World Breast Pumping Day!!

Performing skin to skin not only after delivery is beneficial, but performing it at anytime in the breastfeeding relationship is very helpful as well!! Besides mom, dads can participate in this amazing snuggle time! Oxytocin which is known as the "love hormone" is released when dads are holding baby close skin to skin just as it does with mom. This hormone creates the natural bond between parent and child helping you to fall in love with them! It can also help reduce stress because it does help lower cortisol levels, and it can help increase confidence! So amazing!

Other benefits of skin to skin include:
Helps keep baby warm by regulating their temperature
Reduces crying
Stabilizes heart rate
Increases blood sugar levels
Improved breathing and increased oxygen
Provides comfort during procedures
Encourages latch and breastfeeding
Improves weight gain
Helps increase milk supply
Helps result in successful breastfeeding
Longer periods of sleep for baby
Enhances brain development
