Belly to Breast and Beyond

A good demonstration

Some good information

for any moms wanting to breastfeed:
•your milk does not come in until 5-7 days AFTER birth. until your milk comes in you will produce something called colostrum which is enough to fill your baby up because their stomachs are so tiny.
•if your baby is wanting to nurse ALOT (even every 15 minutes) that is not an indication that your baby is starving. your baby is cluster feeding which is their way of telling your body to produce more milk & it is completely normal. LET THEM DO THIS. ITS IMPORTANT FOR YOUR SUPPLY.
•YOUR BABY CAN GET MUCH MORE MILK OUT THAN A PUMP CAN
•your breastfed baby will most likely never drink over 4-5oz at a time because your milk changes with the baby.
•pumping 2-4oz at a time is not an indication of low supply, it’s completely normal. - anything more would be considered an over supply.
this is just some of the things i wish someone would have told me when i started breastfeeding jaxson. 🤱
