Tis the Season – Breastfeeding when You’re Sick

badass breastfeeding podcast, breastfeeding, supportBy dc_adminJanuary 14, 2018

It’s hard to be sick, no matter what the situation. It seems like there is always way too much to do, and recovering from illness is never on that list.  The feeling intensifies when you are a mother.  Who will take care of kids or the house?  Or you? These are questions that usually go…

Breastfeeding 2?

badass breastfeeding podcast, breastfeeding, supportBy dc_adminDecember 26, 2017

Have you ever seen someone tandem nurse? It’s somewhat of a unicorn in our society these days. Just knowing someone who has managed this is enough, let alone witness it with your own eyes. Tandem nursing is when mom is breastfeeding her new baby and still breastfeeding the first baby. This is a pretty amazing…

Spoiling Your Baby…True or False?

badass breastfeeding podcast, breastfeeding, supportBy dc_adminDecember 12, 2017

It’s one of the most common parenting suggestions around. I think every family I have worked with has reported hearing it at least once…maybe from a family member, friend or a provider. Parents look on in fear, their minds racing. “What if it already happened?” They are thinking. “What if I ruined everything?” Spoiling your…

NIP (Nursing in Public)

badass breastfeeding podcast, breastfeeding, supportBy dc_adminNovember 14, 2017

Nursing in public. We in the breastfeeding community like to refer to this as NIP. NIP can be quite a hot topic among members of society, and opinions can get pretty heated at times.   Every breastfeeding mama has their own comfort level when it comes to nursing their little one while they are with others.…

Breast and Bottle Feeding

badass breastfeeding podcast, breastfeeding, supportBy dc_adminOctober 11, 2017

It seems to me that when I ask an expecting mother what her feeding plan is, she always makes sure to specify that she is planning to breastfeed, but wants to give bottles. Some things I hear are: “I want dad to bond too”, “I have to return to work”, and “I might want a…

Newborn Schedules~What To Expect?

badass breastfeeding podcast, breastfeeding, supportBy dc_adminSeptember 26, 2017

I saw this great family today. Baby is 4 days old; he is baby number 2 for this mama. The baby was feeding well, milk was coming in, and mom felt good. While we talked, her older son (3 and a half) was bouncing around and chatting away with mom and dad. He didn’t pay…

Where is your Self Care?

badass breastfeeding podcast, breastfeeding, supportBy dc_adminSeptember 19, 2017

Self care. Repeat that again…SELF CARE. Taking care of yourself. It’s like I’m speaking a foreign language. Most mothers I meet are not even thinking about self care, let alone practicing it. It is important, and I’ll tell you why. Burn out is a real thing. When you’re a mom, you aren’t really thinking about…

Breastfeeding and Milk Supply

badass breastfeeding podcast, breastfeeding, supportBy dc_adminSeptember 12, 2017

Milk supply. The dreaded nemesis of every breastfeeding mother.   It seems like milk supply dominates the thoughts of breastfeeding women everywhere- and not just low supply. I get questions about low supply and oversupply, concerns when supply is perfect. Usually when supply is perfect, mothers are worried that it’s still not enough. Milk supply issues,…

Coming Home

badass breastfeeding podcast, breastfeeding, supportBy dc_adminSeptember 6, 2017

It’s your first day home with your baby. Could anything else feel more terrifying? I don’t think there is a new parent out there who didn’t say to themselves “I am not qualified to take care of a baby!” at some point in those early days. When you are in the hospital (if you gave…

Breastfeeding – the extended version

badass breastfeeding podcast, breastfeeding, supportBy dc_adminAugust 29, 2017

What is extended breastfeeding, anyway? How do you determine when you have crossed over from “regular” breastfeeding and into “extended” breastfeeding? I have heard many opinions about this, so let’s get right down to it. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends babies breastfeed for 2 years. The World Health Organization (or WHO) recommends up…
