Bump to Bundle

"My daughter at 15 months caught pertussis.

She was pretty much weaned, but when she got sick we were nursing again.

The left was 3 days prior and the right was that day.

Our bodies are AMAZING!"

Your breast milk is always changing—perfectly tailored to your baby’s needs in real time.

One of the most incredible things about breast milk is that it isn’t static. It’s a living, dynamic fluid that adapts daily—sometimes even hour by hour—to meet the unique needs of your baby.

When your baby is sick, the composition of your milk changes. Tiny amounts of their saliva are absorbed into your ni**le while nursing, signaling your body to produce more immune-boosting components—like antibodies, white blood cells, and protective enzymes—customized to fight exactly what your baby is facing.

Your milk becomes their personalized medicine. It may even look different—thicker, more yellow, or slightly green—and that’s okay! It’s a visual reminder that your body knows what your baby needs and is responding accordingly.

Breast milk is not just food—it’s comfort, connection, and a powerful immune system support made just for them.

Very interesting article....more updated info on the benefits of miraculous breast milk 🤩💞

She thought she was studying milk.
What she found was a conversation.

In 2008, Katie Hinde was standing in a primate research lab in California, staring at data that refused to behave.

She was analyzing breast milk from rhesus macaque mothers—hundreds of samples, thousands of measurements. And a pattern kept appearing that made no sense under the old rules of science.

Mothers with sons produced milk richer in fat and protein.
Mothers with daughters produced more volume, with different nutrient ratios.

This wasn’t random.

It was customized.

Her male colleagues waved it off.
Measurement error.
Noise.
Coincidence.

But Katie trusted the numbers.

And the numbers were saying something radical:

Milk isn’t just food.
It’s information.

For decades, science treated breast milk like gasoline—calories in, growth out. Simple fuel. But if that were true, why would it change based on a baby’s s*x?

Katie kept digging.

She analyzed milk from 250+ mothers across 700+ sampling events. And the story deepened.

First-time, younger mothers produced milk with fewer calories—but much higher cortisol, the stress hormone. Babies who drank it grew faster… and became more vigilant, more anxious, less confident.

The milk wasn’t just building bodies.

It was shaping temperament.

Then came the discovery that stunned even skeptics.

When a baby nurses, tiny amounts of saliva travel backward through the ni**le into the mother’s breast tissue. That saliva carries signals about the baby’s immune status.

If the baby is getting sick, the mother’s body detects it.

Within hours, her milk changes.

White blood cells surge.
Macrophages multiply.
Targeted antibodies appear.

And when the baby recovers?

The milk returns to baseline.

It wasn’t coincidence.

It was call and response.

The baby’s spit tells the mother what’s wrong.
The mother’s body makes exactly the medicine needed.

A biological dialogue—ancient, precise, invisible to science for centuries.

In 2011, Katie joined Harvard and looked at the wider research landscape.

What she found was unsettling.

There were twice as many studies on erectile dysfunction as on breast milk composition.

The first food every human ever consumed—the substance that shaped our species—had been largely ignored.

So Katie did something bold.

She started a blog with a deliberately provocative name:
“Mammals Suck… Milk!”

Within a year, it had over a million readers. Parents. Doctors. Scientists. People asking questions research had skipped.

And the discoveries kept coming:

• Milk changes by time of day (fat peaks mid-morning)
• Foremilk differs from hindmilk (nursing longer delivers richer milk)
• Human milk contains 200+ oligosaccharides babies can’t digest—because they exist to feed beneficial gut bacteria
• Every mother’s milk is as unique as a fingerprint

In 2017, Katie brought the story to a TED stage, watched by millions.
In 2020, she explained it to the world in Netflix’s Babies.

Today, at Arizona State University’s Comparative Lactation Lab, Dr. Katie Hinde continues uncovering how milk shapes human development from the very first hours of life—informing NICU care, improving formula design, and reshaping public health policy worldwide.

The implications are staggering.

Milk has been evolving for 200 million years—longer than dinosaurs walked the Earth.

What science dismissed as “simple nutrition” is actually one of the most sophisticated communication systems biology has ever produced.

Katie Hinde didn’t just study milk.

She revealed that the most ancient form of nourishment is also the most intelligent—
a living, responsive conversation between two bodies, shaping who we become before we ever speak.

All because one scientist refused to accept that half the story was “measurement error.”

Sometimes the biggest revolutions begin by listening to what everyone else ignores.

Bump to BundleIt's been 2 months since my little girly weened off her milky. 🥹 My heart wasn't ready (and still isn't) and I will treasure every second of that bond we shared.

Our journey started off a little harder than we anticipated. I was told my breastfeeding journey had come to an end on Valentine's Day 2023 - something that didn't seem possible when holding my little one and knowing that I wanted to breastfeed her and give her the best start to life. That same day, my doula Pam to Bundle(who also happens to be an absolute breastfeeding genius) immediately connected with me and started problem solving. 🥹🙌🏻 She helped find a breastfeeding mommy down the road who helped us supplement with donor milk instead of us using formula, taught us paced feeding techniques when supplementing and offered the most incredible support and encouragement to keep at it and to trust biology. We kept track of Adélie's weight (but not obsessively), counting wet nappies and poos and offering unlimited time at the breast. It didn't take too long for me to be able to start exclusively breastfeeding thereafter.

I learnt to be gentle with myself and my body. I learnt to read my baby and not the clock. I discovered how much I personally didn't want to resort to formula. Both Lance and I agreed that bottles were a no no for us (🤣😂 gosh, breastfeeding is so much easier). I learnt to slow down, to relax and to trust the process. I experienced love from my village (a village I didn't even know existed until I needed one) beyond what words can describe.

I learnt the Womanly Art of Breastfeeding - also a title of an incredible book that any expectant mother should own. 🙌🏻🙌🏻

I never had a breastfeeding goal or expectation. I decided to go with the flow. 😂🤣 Literally!! In this journey, I found out how absolutely incredible breast milk is - even beyond 2!!

Some unbiased notes from my own personal experience:

🤱🏼- It slowed me down, it highlighted my priorities in life and it grew my relationship and healthy attachment with my baby girl.

🤱🏼- It offered safety in all aspects. Her milky was her comfort. She didn't want a dummy, a blanky or a snuggly etc. The bonus? We never lost or forgot to pack these bo***es of mine. 🤣😂🤣😂

🤱🏼- Going out anywhere was easier pre-solids. Just needed our cloth nappies and her already packed milky.

🤱🏼- I could make milky in my sleep. And she could access it while I was sleeping. Lance and I both experienced the benefit of this.

🤱🏼- Zero antibiotics needed to date. Milky is a built-in pharmacy and apparently also trains the body's immune system to respond effectively.

🤱🏼- I didn't have to stress about an apocalypse. 😂🤣 I knew I could still feed and nourish my baby.

🤱🏼- Every time Adélie learnt a new skill that she was personally proud of (it was so cute), she would reward herself with milky and reflect on her new skill.

🤱🏼- It built a solid relationship between Adélie and I - especially when she turned 2 and life was busy for a rapidly developing toddler. The overwhelm of new emotions were easily nurtured through a little rest and down time while having some milky.

🤱🏼- Milky was hydrating and offered the nutrients needed for a growing baby and toddler. If she didn't eat properly, I didn't have to worry because I knew she was still being nourished. Hot day? No sweat - she was hydrated sufficiently. My milk factory custom made milky for her every need.

I am grateful every single day of my life that I was able to breastfeed my child and that she weened so gently and naturally from her beloved milky at 32 months old. ❤️🤱🏼



She was ready, but I was not. I didn't know our last feed would be our last. 🥹❤️🤱🏼
