Repost from @support_rose This video is infuriating. Too many Pediatricians have no lactation training at all. Following a Lactation Consultant around during rounds for a few hours does not count. What she is telling this Mom is completely FALSE! According to WHO(World Health Organization) "From the age of 6 months, children should begin eating safe and adequate complementary foods while continuing to breastfeed for up to 2 years and beyond" This is why it's so important to interview your child's Pediatrician prior to then taking over their care. Make sure your breast/chest feeding ideals align with theirs. If not...they're not the one. It is completely OK to fire your child's doctor or any doctor for that matter. Ok...I'm done with my rant now. PS stayed tuned for some new things happening! *Pregnant? Plan to give your baby breastmilk...let's talk!โค๏ธ

#Repost @gubirthtribe I've always wondered why people feel so compelled to tell you what to do with your boobs๐Ÿง โ € Our breastfeeding journey last for 2 strong ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ years. My plan was a year,but sis had other plans๐Ÿคฃ I used to hear all these comments..."Isn't she too old?" Nope. "Doesn't she eat real food?" Yep...with a little breastmilk on the side. โ € We weaned at 25 months,because I felt like the walking dead. As an RN, I work 12 hour shifts,and Nadira was dream feeding every 3 hours at night like a newborn. Tired...is an understatement. I was literally afraid that I was going to crash on my way to work or overdose a patient. Neither one of those were getting enough sleep,so I did what I had to do. โ € Anyone ever ask you these crazy questions? โ € โ € PS...how we weaned is a whole story in itself

S/O to @tobecallsmefat! #normalizebreastfeeding! She has not 1,not 2,but 3 babies on tour with her! Hats off to you Mamaโค๏ธ #momlife #breastfeeding #breastmilk #bossmomlife #blackwomenbreastfeed

Momsโ€ฆWhy do we feel guilty when we do anything for ourselves? Maybe Patriarchal BS that weโ€™ve been conditioned to feel bad when we need respite?๐Ÿคท๐Ÿพโ€โ™€๏ธ Either wayโ€ฆ. โ € Itโ€™s ok to feel however you feel about motherhood today. Whether you want a break,miss your old life,or are struggling. Embrace where you are. Be kind to yourself. โ € Reach out to your village. If you donโ€™t have one, create one.

The history of JUNETEENTH as told by @taylorcassidyj. This Saturday is Juneteenth. A celebration of the actual day enslaved people found out they were free(2 whole years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed). โ € So Congress is planning to approve Juneteenth as a National holiday. Well...I have an unpopular opinion about that. What exactly is that going to do to advance Black people in America? Does is give us reparations? So it basically gives people another day off. Ok. Thatโ€™s cool,but what is the purpose? โ € ๐™‡๐™š๐™ฉ ๐™ข๐™š ๐™ ๐™ฃ๐™ค๐™ฌ ๐™ฎ๐™ค๐™ช๐™ง ๐™ค๐™ฅ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™—๐™š๐™ก๐™ค๐™ฌ. โ € PS...yes I know this my page is about breast/chestfeeding...but as a Black woman moving through America,I have to address these topics as well. โ € โฃ .โฃ .โฃ .โฃ .โฃ .โฃ #blackhistory #blackexcellence #blacklivesmatter #blackhistorymonth #blackgirlmagic #melanin #blackpower #blacklove #blackculture #black #blm #blackwomen #africa #history #love #blackpeople #blackisbeautiful #blackpride #blackmen #melaninpoppin #africanamerican #buyblack #repost #blackbusiness #blackgirlsrock #blackunity #explorepage

Absolutely love this!! #Repost from @soslactation โ€ข When breastfeeding babies bottle feed, we ask them to demonstrate as many of the same skills when breastfeeding as possible. A full bottle feed should take at least 15 min. When parents donโ€™t understand how to pace feed they pretend try to slow the bottle down by taking it out of the babyโ€™s mouth every few sucks. This often leads to a frustrated baby and itโ€™s not necessary. But what IS important is that we ask a baby to open wide every time they are breastfeeding or bottle feeding to insure they continue to open wide for a good latch. Thank you baby Everette and Nicole for capturing!

Today is Day 3 of Black Maternal Health week and I really wanted to take the time out and recognize our backbones...The Fathers. Society has led many people to believe that Black men donโ€™t take care of their children.

Today is the first day of Black Maternal Health week. This week means celebrating the beauty that comes with being a Black mother. Having uncomfortable conversations. Researching why there needs to be a Black Maternal Health week in the first place. โ € One thing Iโ€™m learning to do is protect my peace and mental health at all costs. If you need to log off or shut it down...do that. If you need to back out,do that. If you need to voice your frustration,do that. โ € No matter what...fix your ๐Ÿ‘‘ and remember your worth. โ € โฃ .โฃ .โฃ .โฃ .โฃ .โฃ #africanbeauty #pregnant #blackpregnancy #blackbirth #postpartum #blackwomencoalition #supportblackwomen #blackbabies #pregnancy #blacklivesmatter #blackmoms #blackwomen #blackmothersmatter #blackbeauty #blackbirthworkers #melanin #doula #blackmidwife #blackjoy #lovetheskinyourein #blackbirthmatters #blackmotherhood #postpartumdoula #choosejoy #birth #brownskingirl #maternalhealth #livejoyfully #blackmothers #blackmamasmatter
