Many recommendations we hear about feeding and sleep don’t actually line up with how babies are actually wired 🫢

Feeding supports sleep. There’s a reason it works well for so many babies. It’s biology and so so normal 💫

So if an ‘Eat, Play, Sleep’ routine works for you and your baby, that’s totally fine and great! And if it doesn’t, you’re allowed to let it go and tune into what your baby is telling you instead 💛

The other night, my own body reminded me just how hard it is to rest when something doesn’t feel comfortable.

One of the most helpful things I come back to, again and again, is shifting perspective and trying to understand what a baby may be experiencing. When we understand, we’re able to offer more grace and patience, for them and for ourselves.

I thought this perspective might help you too 💛

Did you know this?!😲

Honestly, bottle marketing is so convincing…I was fooled once too! It wasn’t until I started learning more in continuing education courses that I realized how misleading these companies are.

Ideally we want baby to be on a slow flow ni**le and as they grow, they should be getting more efficient, not needing faster flow! Of course there are exceptions, some babies may benefit from a faster flow, but that’s not the norm!

Britt Pados at the Infant Feeding Labs has done some incredible research to give us more insight into bottle ni**le flow rates and how variable they can be. She has resources for both parents and professionals. In this post I share to charts from her study on ni**le flow rates. Her site is definitely worth checking out if you’re interested in learning more!!

Did this surprise you? LMK in the comments! 👇🏽

🔊 babies are NOT lazy!

If they could feed effectively, they would. AND they are doing the best they can with the skills they have 🥲 This goes for both breast and bottle feeding!

They are not lazy.

They are not stubborn.

When a baby isn’t feeding well, it’s a sign that they are having a hard time. And the best thing we can do to help them is start digging deeper. When we identify the root cause(s) of baby’s symptoms/challenges, we will help them feed and feel better AND you can rest easier!

Don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.

Keep holding, rocking, snuggling your baby to sleep for as long as you want 💕
