Colic or coordination — which is it? 🤔
Long, inconsolable crying spells are not always caused by digestive discomfort. Sometimes the real challenge is in how baby coordinates sucking, swallowing, and breathing during feeds.

💨 Breathing coordination plays a big role in comfort.
👄 Timing of sucking and swallowing can affect how much air baby swallows.
🧠 Nervous system regulation impacts how easily they settle before, during, and after a feed.

When baby’s movement and body systems are not in sync, babies can seem “colicky” even when there’s no digestive reason to blame. That’s why we assess your baby’s whole body in addition to assessing their feeding skills — so you get answers and they get relief.

As World Breastfeeding Week comes to a close…
We want to pause and say thank you. 💛

✨ To the healthcare providers who walk alongside families on their postpartum journey.
✨ To the friends and family who show up with encouragement, practical help, and compassion.
✨ To the advocates working toward systems that truly support parents.

We also want to acknowledge that this week can feel heavy for some. For families who have faced:
🌿 Low milk supply
🌿 Tongue tie, lip tie, or cheek tie
🌿 Prematurity or complex medical needs
🌿 Developmental delays and syndromes that make breastfeeding more difficult

Your stories matter. Every journey is unique. 💛

We believe change is still needed, especially when it comes to better parental leave and broader systemic support here in the U.S., to make breastfeeding goals more feasible and sustainable for more families.

May this week be a reminder of the power of awareness, the importance of skilled and compassionate care, and the impact of encouragement without judgment.

Here’s to building a world where every family feels supported—whatever their feeding journey looks like. 💛 🌎

💧 Your breastmilk is 87% water!

If you make 30 oz of milk in a day, that’s over 26 oz of water leaving your body!

No wonder you’re thirsty, tired, or even getting headaches—your body is working hard!

💦 Hydration = better energy & milk supply.
Keep a water bottle nearby and take a big sip at every feed.

✨ Sip. Feed. Repeat.
Small habits make a big difference—for your milk supply and how you feel.

💗 Your body (and your baby!) will thank you.
