When it comes to pacifier use for breastfed babies, there are multiple schools of thought (give it. don’t give it. SIDS prevention. nipple confusion. ahh!), but none of them seem to consider each family’s goals—that’s where we come in! =)

When it comes to feeding your breastfed baby, your bottle choice is an important decision. Many parents choose to introduce bottles for many reasons, such as supplementing breast feeds, ensuring others can participate in feedings, or for convenience when mom is away. However, not all bottles are created equal, especially when you want to maintain optimal breastfeeding habits and promote your baby’s oral development.

We see moms every week, that come to us in a panic about their low milk supply. They see stashes on Instagram with freezers packed full of milk—hundreds, thousands, of ounces. They worry that their freezer full of 2-3 days of breast milk is too minimal, and they worry that their baby won’t get enough milk.
