You don’t always need the most expensive electric pump to successfully express breastmilk. Every body responds differently, and some moms actually get better output with a simple hand pump or even hand expression. Comfort, fit, stress levels, and technique can make a huge difference. Expensive doesn’t automatically mean better. If pumping has been frustrating, it may be worth trying another option before giving up. A manual pump can be portable, quiet, and effective, while hand expression can be great for relief or collecting milk. The best pump is the one that works best for you and your baby.

New Parent Tips with Jessica, RN and Postpartum Doula

It’s okay to pause. If your baby is crying and you are feeling upset and frustrated, gently lay them down in the crib and take a moment for yourself. Step away, breathe deeply, and let your body reset. A few minutes of calm can make all the difference in how you show up next. You’re not failing—you’re human, and this is hard. Caring for yourself is part of caring for your baby. They don’t need perfection, they need you steady and present. Take the breath. Regroup. Then go back with a little more peace in your heart. You’ve got this.

Maddie, RN & shares her tips and tricks for newborn care!

Middle-of-the-night newborn care feels 10x harder when you’re wandering the house looking for wipes at 2:13am. 🙃

One of our favorite practical tips? Set up a simple night station on a rolling cart next to your bed. Stock it with diapers, wipes, a changing pad, burp cloths, extra sleepers, swaddles, pacifiers, ni**le cream, a water bottle, and any feeding supplies you need.

When everything has a home and stays within arm’s reach, you feel calmer, more prepared, and way less frazzled.

The goal at night isn’t perfection — it’s efficiency and preserving your energy. Future-you at 3am will be so thankful you set it up.

Maddie, RN & Postpartum Doula shares her tips and tricks for newborn care!

😴Dressing your newborn on a cool night doesn’t have to be complicated. A simple rule many parents find helpful: put baby in one more layer than you’re comfortable wearing. If you’re cozy in pajamas and a light blanket, baby might do well in footed sleepers plus a or .

😴Check their chest or back of the neck to gauge warmth — hands and feet are often cooler and can be misleading.

😴Avoid overheating, skip loose blankets in the crib, and adjust as needed through the night. Comfortable, not sweaty, is the goal. You’ve got this.
