The Momnibus Act has been reintroduced—and this moment is bigger than policy. It's about protection. It's about accountability. It's about us. 🖤

First introduced in 2020 by Congresswomen Alma Adams and Lauren Underwood, alongside Senator Cory Booker, through the Black Maternal Health Caucus, the Momnibus Act was created in response to a crisis our communities have been naming for generations. While pieces have been passed, the full vision—one that truly centers Black mothers and birthing people—still calls for continued advocacy.

Because the truth is: this fight didn't start with legislation. It started with us.

For too long, Black mothers and birthing people have carried the weight of a system that wasn't built to hold us. The Momnibus Act pushes for real change—investing in community-based care, mental health support, doulas and midwives, and the resources we actually need to thrive.

At BLKBRY, we believe in pouring into each other while pushing for systems that pour into us, too.

This isn't just legislation.
This is life-saving work.

Stay informed. Share the message. Advocate with intention—and tag your representatives.

Because Black maternal health deserves more than conversation—it deserves commitment.

Softness is powerful. 🫐🤎🌿

In a world that often asks Black women and birthing parents to be everything for everyone — strong, resilient, unshakable — choosing softness can feel radical.

But softness is not weakness.

Softness is healing.
Softness is growth.
Softness is giving yourself permission to move at your own pace.

Affirm this with us today:
✨ Softness is my strength. I am learning, growing, and blooming in my own time.

Drop a 🫐 in the comments if you're honoring your own pace right now.

Milk supply support—straight from the kitchen. 🥘✨

Forget the expensive "specialty" supplements. Some of the best support for your nursing journey is already sitting in your pantry or simmering on the stove!

We're leaning into the foods that have nourished our families for generations. These staples don't just taste like home—they're powerhouses for milk production:

🥬 Leafy Greens: Collards and mustard greens for that essential iron boost.
🫘 Beans & Legumes: Black-eyed peas and red beans for protein and recovery.
🌻 Sunflower Seeds: Quick, healthy fats for you and baby.

Nourishing yourself is the first step in nourishing your little one.

Which of these is a must-have in your kitchen? 👇🏾

If it wasn't a tub of Vaseline, a pack of wipes that were almost dried out, and a spare onesie three sizes too small, was it even a diaper bag? 😂

What's the one item that always stayed in the bag in your household?

There's a specific kind of magic in those first few signs of labor. It's that quiet, sacred window where your body starts whispering that it's almost time.

In our culture, we know the importance of "home base." Early labor isn't the time to rush to the hospital—it's the time to lean into your peace. It's for the slow walks, the nourishing bowls of soup, and the deep breaths.

If you're feeling those rhythmic back aches or that sudden burst of "nesting" energy to get the house in order, take a moment to center yourself. Your ancestors' strength is literally in your bones. 🕊️

The Early Labor Game Plan:
✅ Hydrate (water, tea, coconut water!)
✅ Rest while you can (save that energy!)
✅ Listen to your body's rhythm

We often hear that breastfeeding is "natural," but that doesn't mean it's always easy!

Just like learning a family recipe, getting the perfect latch takes a little practice, a lot of patience, and the right technique.

Whether you're nursing, pumping, or a bit of both, these 4 tips are designed to help you and baby find your rhythm. We're leaning into the closeness and the community wisdom that has always sustained us.

Remember: Pain is a signal, not a requirement. If the latch feels "pinch-y," it's okay to unlatch and reset. You're doing a beautiful job providing for your little one. ✨

Which of these tips was a game-changer for you?

Drop a "🙌🏾" if you're in the thick of the newborn days!

Support is not weakness. It's wisdom. 🤎

Parenting was never meant to happen in isolation. Our ancestors raised children through community — aunties, cousins, neighbors, elders. A whole village making sure both parent and baby were cared for.

Accepting help is part of that tradition.

Whether it's someone bringing a meal, holding the baby so you can rest, sharing knowledge, or offering encouragement — support strengthens families.

Affirm it with us today:
✨ I accept help with an open heart, knowing that a supported parent builds a strong village.

Tag someone who has been part of your village. 🤱🏾

Whether she was encouraging you to "eat your greens" for your milk or telling you to keep that baby's chest warm, the Aunties and Elders have always been our lactation consultants.

Community care has always been part of our story. 🤎🥛

For generations, Black families have supported one another through shared knowledge, shared resources — and yes, shared milk.

Community milk sharing helps bridge the gap when:
• supply is low
• babies have medical needs
• families need additional feeding support

Human milk provides powerful protection for infants, and programs like ours help ensure Black families have access to those benefits when they need them most.

When one family has more, and another family needs support — community steps in.
That's collective care in action.

Learn how you can support or receive through our Community Milk Sharing program.
