It’s Kjersten’s Birthday Week so we began celebrating the best way we know how: learning about CST for baby feeding. We had an amazing day full of baby farts, functioning airways, and cheesecake. Thank you Kaytee for balancing my sphenoid!

Access to resources, legal protections, healthcare policy… we have so far to go. International Women’s Day is about more than celebrating our achievements. It’s a reminder to keep going. You might be on the couch right now, nursing a future human rights lawyer or scientist or poet or farmer or professor. The parenting work and baby feeding work is a step toward realizing legal equality across the world.

Happy IBCLC Day! 🎉

Today we celebrate International Board Certified Lactation Consultants—health professionals who support families through the joys, challenges, questions, and realities of feeding babies.

Breastfeeding can be beautiful, complicated, exhausting, empowering, and everything in between. IBCLCs are here to offer evidence-based guidance, compassionate support, and practical solutions so families can feel supported in reaching their own feeding goals.

I (Brandi) am honored to have worked alongside the incredible women of Oasis Lactation, who give so much of themselves to make such a difficult season of life easier for their patients. It's immensely rewarding work, but it doesn't come from nowhere.

If you’ve worked with an IBCLC, today is a great day to send them a little appreciation! You have no clue how much they relish hearing it (or receiving snacks). ❤

NYC got hit hard the way the MN north shore did last week. Our wonderful teammate Jamie is there and sent us a glimpse of the snow sculptures of Central Park. Stay warm friends!

Teas, smoothies, and all the egg dishes got eaten before they could get photographed. Nutrient variety and density is the goal.

I create my own suffering. I just needed a little sprinkle of cheese and now look what I’ve gotten myself into. Do not send the healthy and financially literate version of me to the grocery store.

Postpartum exhaustion isn’t just about how often the baby wakes.

Research consistently shows that after a baby arrives, many birthing parents end up carrying more of the physical work, the planning, and the mental load — even in loving, well-intentioned partnerships.

Feeding method alone doesn’t predict relationship strength.
Feeling supported does.

Partnership isn’t about doing identical tasks.
It’s about sharing the total weight of this season.

If you’re in the thick of newborn life and it feels like a lot — you’re not imagining it. And you don’t have to carry it alone.

There’s been a lot of conversation this week about an opinion piece suggesting that formula feeding is the “secret” to equal parenting in relationships. (Looking at you, New York Times. 👀)
And here’s the thing we want families to hear loud and clear:

👉 Feeding method doesn’t create an equal partnership.
👉 Support, communication, and shared responsibility do.

Breastfeeding can’t be split 50/50 — but parenting absolutely can be.

Non-breastfeeding partners can be deeply involved in infant care--check the slides for ideas.

Breastfeeding isn’t the reason some parents feel unsupported.
And formula isn’t a guarantee of shared labor.

Healthy families look like partners showing up — in whatever ways their baby and household need.

We support all feeding choices.
And we believe every parent deserves real, tangible support.

If you’re feeding your baby (with breastmilk, formula, or any combination of the two) and feeling like you’re carrying too much alone — you’re not failing. You’re doing something incredibly hard. Humans aren't meant to parent alone.

💛 You deserve a team.

Save this for the conversations that matter.
