Don’t Let These Things Stop YOU from Breastfeeding
Pain
Breastfeeding pain can stem from various issues. Identifying the cause is the first step to effective management and treatment. Reach out for help and support to ensure a comfortable breastfeeding experience.
Toddler is “Too Old”
Major health organizations recommend nursing until at least age 2 or older. Human milk is an excellent source of nutrition and immune protection for growing toddlers.
Low Milk Supply
Sometimes, frequent feeding can lead to the perception of low milk supply, prompting moms to supplement. True low milk supply can have various causes.
While galactagogues can help with some issues, they are not the only solution.
Returning to Work
Know Your Rights! The PUMP Act mandates that employers must provide:
Reasonable break time for nursing employees
and a private, non-bathroom space shielded from view for expressing breast milk at work.
