To all the beautiful black breastfeeding mamas out there, may you feel celebrated, supported, uplifted and a little extra loved this week as we celebrate your breastfeeding journey during black breastfeeding week! 💖

Disparities in breastfeeding reflect a similarly dismal picture when it comes to maternal health in the United States – and how this disproportionally hurts Black families. The U.S. has one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the developed world. Black mothers are three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related complications than white mothers. Additionally, Black babies are more likely to be born prematurely. The mortality rate for Black babies in America is more than double that of white babies. In 2012, three maternal and infant health advocates – Kiddada Green, Kimberly Seals Allers, and Anayah Sangodele-Ayoka – created Black Breastfeeding Week. Held August 25 to 31, it’s intended to amplify, promote, and support Black breastfeeding.

The goal is to highlight breastfeeding disparities and reduce breastfeeding barriers among women of color. Specifically, the founders want to raise awareness about five breastfeeding-related issues in the Black community:

👉The high mortality rate among Black infants
👉High rates of diet-related disease among Black children
👉Lack of diversity in the lactation field
👉Unique cultural barriers to breastfeeding
👉Lack of breastfeeding support

🧐 Galacta whaahh?

👉🏼 GALACTAGOGUES are milk boosters found in specific foods and here’s why we love them 👇🏽

Prolactin is one of the many hormones involved in milk production and eating galactagogues can increase the level of prolactin in the body resulting in larger quantities of milk output! 🙌🏽🍼

✨ Ingesting Galactagogues through treats such as cookies or tea, are a part of the fun in breastfeeding! Breastfeeding moms look forward to their “me time” where they get to take a minute out of their non stop day, to enjoy their lactation cookies and lactation tea 🍪☕️ and no one is more deserving! 💖

🤩Lactation cookies like you’ve never had before 🍪

Ooey, gooey, soft and chewy!🤤

With natural 🌱 ingredients like:

✨ Old fashioned rolled oats 🌾
✨Flax seed meal 🌱
✨Wheat Germ 🌾
✨ Brewer’s Yeast 🌾

For the most delicious, hearty, lactation cookies that help mama produce more milk and potentially better the quality of the milk !🍪

Quality ingredients matter! Our one of a kind, out of this world cookies, are gourmet, handcrafted and made with only quality ingredients we feed our own families.

These cookies are DAMN GOOD PERIODT 🙌🏽

👀 Keep them away from spousy, your kids, your MIL, your DIL, your neighbor, your dog, because they will love them just as much as you!

Don’t worry, your family and friends won’t start lactating just because they ate your cookies while you were taking that well deserved nap (get your nap on mama)! These only have an effect on already lactating people, which is a shame because how great would it be if yours weren’t the only working ni***es? 🤔🤩

🤱💕 The Incredible Power of Prolactin and Oxytocin in Breastfeeding! 💪🥛

Did you know that these two amazing hormones work together to make breastfeeding possible? 🌟✨

🍼 Prolactin: The Milk-Maker 🥛

Prolactin, also known as the “milk-making hormone,” is produced by the pituitary gland in our brain. It plays a crucial role in milk production, helping our mammary glands produce abundant and nutritious breast milk for our little ones. 🍼💧

When our baby latches onto our breast and begins to suckle, the stimulation triggers a release of prolactin, signaling our body to start producing milk. The more frequently and effectively our baby feeds, the more prolactin is released, ensuring a steady supply of milk to meet their growing needs. 🌱👶

So fetch 💅🏼

💞 Oxytocin: The Love Hormone 💗

Now let’s talk about oxytocin, the magical hormone that enhances the bonding experience between a mother and her baby. Often called the “love hormone” or “cuddle hormone,” oxytocin is released during breastfeeding and has incredible benefits for both mom and baby. 💞🤗

When our baby suckles at the breast, the release of oxytocin causes our milk to flow smoothly, but oxytocin won’t stop there! It also promotes a feeling of relaxation and contentment, reducing stress and anxiety for both mom and baby. Hence, those baby eyes rolling back as soon as the let down hits 👀 and mom even feeling a little sleepy 😴

Moreover, oxytocin strengthens the emotional bond between us and our thirstay little babes.

🌱Nature’s way of ensuring that breastfeeding becomes an incredibly special and intimate experience for baby and mama🤱💕

Tonight we’re talking about something very common that many breastfeeding moms have experienced: "mother's neck."

🤱🏻💕 Breastfeeding is a beautiful and bonding experience, but it can also take a toll on your neck and upper back.

So, let's dive into what mother's neck is and how you can find relief!

Mother's neck, also known as nursing neck or breastfeeding neck, refers to the strain and discomfort felt in the neck and upper back area due to the prolonged and often awkward positions during breastfeeding. As you lean forward to feed your little one, your neck muscles can become strained and tense, leading to discomfort and pain, but as we know, It’s almost impossible not to look down at your beautiful baby while they blissfully get milk drunk. 😍

So, what can you do to ease the discomfort and take care of your neck while breastfeeding?

1️⃣ Find a comfortable position: Experiment with different breastfeeding positions to find one that puts less strain on your neck and back. It could be the cradle hold, football hold, or side-lying position. Finding the right position is a game changer!

2️⃣ Support your body: Use pillows or nursing cushions to provide support for your back, neck, and arms during breastfeeding sessions. This will help alleviate the pressure on your neck and prevent muscle strain.

3️⃣ Practice good posture: Sit up straight during breastfeeding sessions, keeping your shoulders relaxed and your back aligned. Avoid hunching over or slumping, as this can lead to increased strain on your neck.

4️⃣ Stretches: Incorporate neck stretches into your daily routine to help relax your neck muscles. Simple movements like neck rotations, side-to-side stretches, and shoulder rolls can provide relief.

So, the next time you nurse your little one, keep those neck muscles happy 💗 •
