Your baby is 3 days old...
Your milk is still coming in.
Your baby’s stomach is still tiny.
And somehow you’ve already been told your supply is “low.”

No.

In those first few days, it’s normal for your body to be producing colostrum before your milk increases in volume. Every feeding journey is unique, and seeing small amounts of milk or frequent feeding doesn’t automatically mean there’s a supply problem.

The internet, well-meaning friends, and even family members can sometimes create unnecessary worry. Before assuming something is wrong, get support from someone who can assess the whole picture.

An IBCLC can help determine whether your baby is feeding effectively, your milk production is on track, and whether any intervention is actually needed.
Sometimes the best advice starts with one simple word: No.

How do you know how much milk your baby is getting during a feeding?
 
One tool we may use during a lactation visit is a weighted feed.
 
By weighing your baby before and after a feeding on a highly sensitive medical scale, we can estimate how much milk they transferred during that nursing session. It gives us valuable information about how feeding is going and helps us put the pieces of the puzzle together.
 
A weighted feed can be especially helpful if you’re concerned about:
• Milk transfer
• Slow weight gain
• Milk supply
• Latch or feeding efficiency
• Whether your baby is getting enough milk
 
It’s important to remember that a weighted feed is just one part of a comprehensive lactation assessment. We also look at your baby’s feeding behavior, oral function, your breastfeeding goals, and the full picture to create a plan that’s tailored to your family.
 
If you’re looking for answers, not guesses,we’re here to help.

Scrolling social media can make it seem like everyone has an overflowing freezer stash by two weeks postpartum. The truth? That’s not what normal milk production looks like for most families.

During Lactogenesis II (when your milk “comes in”), your body is still learning what your baby needs. In those early days, your milk supply is meant to match your baby’s tiny stomach, not fill dozens of storage bags.

A large oversupply isn’t the goal. In fact, it can sometimes create challenges like engorgement, plugged ducts, mastitis, and an overactive letdown.

If you’ve been wondering, “Am I making enough?” know that your worth as a parent isn’t measured in ounces. A healthy, growing baby and plenty of wet and dirty diapers are much better indicators than comparing yourself to what you see online.

Every breastfeeding journey looks different, and that’s okay. 🤍

Want to learn more about what’s actually normal during Lactogenesis II and what to expect as your milk comes in? Visit our blog through the link in our bio for a deeper dive.

“Hospital-grade” gets used a lot when talking about breast pumps, but what does it actually mean?
 
Many parents assume it simply means it’s the “best” pump. In reality, the term refers to a pump that’s designed for frequent, long-term use and is powerful enough to help establish and maintain milk supply, especially when a baby isn’t nursing effectively or can’t nurse at the breast.
 
Hospital-grade pumps are often recommended when:
• Your baby is premature or in the NICU
• You’re exclusively pumping
• You’re working to establish or rebuild your milk supply
• You and your baby are temporarily separated
• Your IBCLC or healthcare provider recommends additional pumping support
 
It’s also important to know that not every pump marketed as “hospital-grade” meets the same standard. The best pump for you depends on your feeding goals, your baby’s needs, and your individual situation.
 
Most insurance plans do not cover true hospital-grade pumps. The pumps typically provided through insurance are personal-use pumps, which are a great option for many families but are different from hospital-grade models.
 
Because true hospital-grade pumps often cost well over $1,000 to purchase, they’re commonly borrowed from hospitals or rented for short-term use when medically indicated.
 
The good news? We offer hospital-grade pump rentals, so if you and your IBCLC determine that one is the best fit for your breastfeeding journey, we can help you get access without the upfront cost of purchasing one.
 
If you’re not sure which pump is right for you, an IBCLC can help you choose the best option and make sure it’s fitted correctly so you can pump as comfortably and effectively as possible.
 
The right pump can make a big difference, but the right guidance can make an even bigger one.

The United States recommends exclusive breastfeeding for about the first six months of life. At the same time, it remains one of the few high-income countries without a federal guarantee of paid maternity leave.
 
That means many parents are returning to work just weeks after giving birth, while recovering physically, establishing milk supply, learning how to feed a newborn, and navigating life with very little sleep.
 
It’s not a personal failure if that feels hard.
 
Research consistently shows that paid leave is associated with improved breastfeeding outcomes, better maternal health, and better infant health. Yet for many families, continuing to breastfeed requires extraordinary planning, persistence, and support.
 
Parents shouldn’t have to choose between protecting their paycheck and meeting their feeding goals.
Until that changes, we’ll continue doing what we can: providing evidence-based care, practical support, and encouragement for every family, wherever they are in their journey.

Breastfeeding in a Texas summer? That’s a contact sport. ☀️🥵
 
Between the triple-digit temperatures, sweaty baby snuggles, and trying to stay hydrated yourself, feeding your baby in the heat can feel like a challenge.
 
A few things to remember:
• Your breastmilk is still perfectly designed for your baby, even in hot weather.
• Many babies may want to nurse more frequently during the summer months to stay hydrated.
• Keeping yourself hydrated and taking breaks in cool spaces can help you stay comfortable, too.
 
Most importantly, don’t stress if your baby seems to be asking for the breast more often. Frequent feeding is often a normal response to the heat.
