Do you wonder if you should spend your money on breastfeeding clothing? Do you like the idea of being able to cover up easily without needing lots of extra layers? Breastfeeding clothing is being marketed like crazy in recent years, but not many people discuss how this type of clothing could contribute to breastfeeding difficulty.

On this episode Lo discusses:

• The unfair societal standards that lead to the need for this clothing
• The situations in which she does not recommend her clients use breastfeeding clothing
• The times in which it could be completely helpful
• Alternatives to breastfeeding clothing if you do not want to spend the money

Do you ever wonder if all the thought and attention you are putting into decisions regarding feeding your baby, sleep and discipline is doing anything?

Jennifer Fink and Janet Allison discuss their baby feeding experiences from years ago, and how that connects to the way the parent their mostly adult children now.

• Stories of breastfeeding from both Jennifer and Janet ranging from 17-30+ years ago
• The cultural impacts of breastfeeding around family members who did always know how to help

Have you heard that those who are overweight or obese have more difficulty breastfeeding? Have you read research studies reporting the same thing? Lo Nigrosh, IBCLC discusses whether or not this is because those with high BMI actually have more difficulty or if it is as a result of weight bias.
On this episode Lo discusses:

• The studies that discuss the link between BMI and breastfeeding outcome
• Studies that discuss weight bias towards mothers in the perinatal period
• The possibility that it is lack of support that leads to lower rates of breastfeeding success for higher BMI patients

Here is the study about weight bias in the perinatal period: https://bmcpregnancychildbirth.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12884-020-03202-5

Here is a study about breastfeeding rates in overweight and obese populations:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3058894/

Tanya Tringali is the host of Motherwit Maternity and the Motherwit Podcast– but she wasn’t a perinatal provider powerhouse 20 years ago when her daughter was born and she was 20 years ago and she experienced systemic inequities while giving birth. She was in school determined to change those inequities close to the towers on 9/11. She could not figure out where her baby was under the care of a close friend. This changed the course of her breastfeeding journey.

On this episode you will hear Tanya discuss:

• The breastfeeding information she did and did not receive prenatally
• Cracked nipples
• Pumping starting 6 weeks postpartum once she returned to work
• Low Supply with the pump (and her reflections about why this was– now over 20 years later)
• Lack of Support for all during birth and postpartum
• Systemic failures that impact families and practitioners
• Trying to maintain Milk Supply during a tragedy
