Two Can Grow

Breastfeeding is natural, how hard could it be, right?!

But what most new parents don’t realize is that feeding is a learned skill, for both you and your baby! It may not be as straightforward as it seems it should be.

This is why prenatal consultations are so invaluable! Not because you’re expecting things to go wrong, but because knowing exactly what to expect in the early days, how to get feeding off to a good start, how to optimize your milk production, and having a little anticipatory guidance goes a long way when you’re running on little sleep and everything feels high stakes!!

If you want to enter postpartum with confidence and someone you can trust and text if/when you need more support, this is your sign to book a prenatal!

Text 301-615-1343 or fill out the contact form on my website to book your visit. The third trimester is a perfect time to connect 😉

Just my honest, professional opinion! 🙈

What else would you add?👇🏽

I see you. It feels hard because it is hard. But you don’t have to tough it out.

Common ≠ normal. Let’s get you and your baby the support you deserve! Text 301-615-1343 to schedule a consult today 💛

This is for my moms who prefer glass 🍼 but can’t send them to daycare!! You’ve got options 🤗

Let me be clear about what I’m not saying: I’m not formula shaming. I’m not anti-formula. I work with families who formula feed every single day. I educate and help families make informed decisions to best support their baby when needed/desired.

What I am saying is that formula companies have a long, well-documented history of preying on vulnerable parents and undermining breastfeeding through their marketing. It’s their business model. They profit when you don’t breastfeed.

And now? That marketing lives in your feed. Sponsored posts. Influencer partnerships. “Just in case” messaging aimed at exhausted parents at 3am. It plants a seed of doubt: “maybe my supply is low too. Maybe I need this too.”

Please be very wary of who’s getting paid to tell you what your body can’t do…

If you’re struggling with feeding, or you’re worried about your supply, find a trusted provider (👋🏽that’s me!) who can actually assess what’s going on and help you meet your goals, whatever those look like 💛

I’ve been MIA, but I’m backkk! Here’s what I’ve been up to 😊⤵️

✨if you missed it, I had laproscopic excision surgery for endometriosis + a Hysteroscopy in June. Surgery went well and I found out I have advanced stage 3 endo plus a uterine septum, 2 fibroids, and a cyst 🫪 I’m healing well though!!

✨I’m back to work after medical leave and seeing clients! From prenatal visits to bottle refusal, feeding aversion, breastfeeding challenges, ties, food reactivity, twins, and sleep support — It’s been a busy! If you need support, reach out 💛

✨I started working out again and it feels good to move my body and I’m so sore thanks to F45 Training Vienna VA 😅

✨started pelvic pt pre/post surgery and wow I didn’t realize how much I needed it!! Also tried dry needling for the first time. It was 😮‍💨😖 but I am feeling a bit of relief, so I guess worth the pain 😅

✨my bff had a baby and I’ve been spending a little extra time with them when I can 🥰
