BREAKING NEWS! Congress just passed the strongest lactation workplace support legislation ever. The PUMP Act expands protections for breastfeeding, chestfeeding, and lactating parents. Right now, four out of five U.S. mothers start out breastfeeding, but less than half are still breastfeeding at six months postpartum. One of the main causes for the drop-off in breastfeeding rates is the lack of break time and a private place to pump in the workplace. The PUMP Act closes the gap in the law and expands protections for all lactating parents who work outside of the home.

“As the leading organizations representing experts in maternal care and public health professionals that advocate and educate about vaccination, we strongly urge all pregnant individuals—along with recently pregnant, planning to become pregnant, lactating and other eligible individuals—to be vaccinated against COVID-19.

“Pregnant individuals are at increased risk of severe COVID-19 infection, including death. With cases rising as a result of the Delta variant, the best way for pregnant individuals to protect themselves against the potential harm from COVID-19 infection is to be vaccinated.

“Maternal care experts want the best outcomes for their patients, and that means both a healthy parent and a healthy baby. Data from tens of thousands of reporting individuals have shown that the COVID-19 vaccine is both safe and effective when administered during pregnancy. The same data have been equally reassuring when it comes to infants born to vaccinated individuals. Moreover, COVID-19 vaccines have no impact on fertility.

“Pregnant individuals and those planning to become pregnant should feel confident in choosing vaccination to protect themselves, their infants, their families, and their communities.”

This Starbucks Order Could Help Increase Your Milk Supply

I couldn't have said it better myself! I would just add that it's best to keep your caffeine "dose" at once a day. That's how often immature little preemies get caffeine in the NICU for apnea issues -- because it takes 24hrs to start to clear their systems! Forcing a build up of YOUR caffeine in THEIR systems will likely make them BUZZ more than you or they would like!

www.romper.com With all of the claims out there that certain foods can increase your milk supply, it's no wonder that breastfeeding moms are filling up their grocery carts with oatmeal, herbs, and raw almonds. But you know what? You're a mom and you could also use
