About Me

My passion for breastfeeding was fueled through overcoming intense breastfeeding struggles when I had Joanie. Oversupply, plugged ducts, exclusive pumping, nipple shields, oral restrictions, breast refusal, Raynaud’s, nipple damage, breast pain, you name it- I was dealing with it! When Joanie’s severe oral ties were diagnosed and released at 3 months old, we finally were able to turn a corner in our breastfeeding journey. She ended up breastfeeding for 22 months, a feat I never would have believed possible if you asked me in the thick of our struggles.

I realized throughout it all, that moms need more breastfeeding support and education. There is so much to learn when becoming a new mom, it’s all just overwhelming. You hear about breastfeeding being natural, and in majority of cases, it isn’t. It requires you and your baby to work together and figure out your rhythm, and that rhythm requires time and support! That’s where I decided I wanted to be that support for moms who are seeking help during this vulnerable postpartum time- where your hormones feel out of whack and you feel like giving up at this breastfeeding thing every single day, but you so desperately want to make it work.
