Closing the Gap: Ensuring Breastfeeding Support for All - this is the theme of World Breastfeeding Week this year.Evolve Lactation is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.I recently wrote a book that captures the essence of how to ensure this support in the critical first week of breastfeeding.When mothers don't get the support they need right from the start, it dramatically decreases the chances that they will continue breastfeeding, ESPECIALLY in developed countries.That's the key part - accessibility of breast pumps and infant formula in developed countries, while they can be life-saving, also makes it easier to forego providing ACTUAL lactation support, and many hospitals and so-called breastfeeding “supporters” find it easier to simply encourage pumping or formula use when what mothers SAY they wish to do is to feed their babies at the breast.The mismatch of support is confusing and unfair, and the concept of informed choice is all but forgotten when people tell mothers that all these options are essentially equal.I've hesitated to call this out because there's nuance to it and I want to be sure that I can be clear.Recommending the use of a breast pump or formula CAN absolutely be part of a totally appropriate plan that has been constructed by a skilled lactation care provider who has performed an assessment and created the plan in collaboration with the family.What is inappropriate is using pumping or formula feeding as a way to avoid having to provide actual lactation support.While it might look like lactation support from the outside, it is most decidedly not.This happens so frequently in the first 100 hours of a baby's life, and it's crucial that we examine this so that we can close the gap.Thanks for reading Evolve Lactation! This post is public so please feel free to share it.Let's look at some stories and explore this a bit more because it's a good way to understand how some new families are getting all the support they need while others are being sabotaged by people who think they're helping or people who don't care enough to even try.Which of these represent actual support?* Baby born at 35 weeks in a hospital under the care of a midwife who is also an IBCLC; thorough assessment of feeding throughout first 48 hours of life; feeding outcomes are not within normal limits; parents and midwife discuss options together which include continued breastfeeding plus hand expression of milk to feed baby using a cup, using a supplemental nurser to feed formula while baby breastfeeds (after assessment to ensure this young baby with immature feeding skills can actually handle a higher flow of milk), and using a bottle to provide formula as a supplement to breastfeeding while milk production is increasing, family is educated about how infant formula affects microbiome and how to ensure baby is not overfed. Family makes decision about how to proceed.* Baby born at 38 weeks in a hospital and is examined by a pediatrician at 24 hours to determine health for discharge; mother reports that baby fed nearly every hour during the night; physician becomes concerned about baby getting enough despite baby having normal diaper output and being otherwise healthy, informs mother that it would be “a good idea” to give some formula after every breastfeeding session “just to make sure.” No other education about breastfeeding is provided.* Baby born at 39 weeks in a hospital and struggling to latch over first 36 hours; formula feeding instituted in first 3 hours of life per hospital staff concerns about establishing breastfeeding; no lactation consultants are available to the patient; no education about hand expression is provided; a breast pump is set up and instructions for use given by nursing staff at around 24 hours postpartum; upon discharge, official instructions are to continue pumping and a “friendly” encouragement is given to “just pump, it's easier than trying to get a lazy baby to latch anyway.”* Hospital struggling financially, decides not to renew their Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative status, decreases staffing for lactation support, eliminates their outpatient lactation clinic; resumes receipt of formula at no charge from formula manufacturer so that “we can make sure ALL babies get fed.”* Baby born at 40 weeks, 4th time mother informs hospital staff that she intends to exclusively formula feed. Staff ensures that she is educated about how to manage onset of milk production to avoid engorgement and provided with contact information should she need additional information or assistance with suppressing milk. Staff ensures she is provided information on safe preparation of infant formula and paced bottle feeding.* Pediatrician sees mother and baby in office at 1 week, mother is tearful as she describes her constant struggle to understand if her baby is getting enough milk, mentions that she had postpartum depression with a previous baby. No assessment of breastfeeding is done, no education about breastfeeding is provided. Mother is encouraged by pediatrician to “start pumping so you can see how much your baby is getting” and given no instructions on how to obtain or use a breast pump, nor any information about safe bottle feeding and storage of expressed milk, nor any discussion of warning signs to watch for in her mental health status. Pediatrician reassures mother that she, herself, was an exclusive pumper and her baby turned out fine.* 1-month old baby is assessed thoroughly by a highly-trained IBCLC who notes dysfunctional sucking and restricted movement of tongue; refers to ENT. Mother calls ENT's office for an appointment to have baby evaluated for possible diagnosis and treatment of dysfunctional feeding and is given an appointment time in 3 months time. When she asks how she should feed the baby in the meantime, doctor's office staff tells her to “just keep trying” and if the baby gets hungry enough they'll figure it out.* Baby born at 37 weeks in the hospital with a doula present; doula follows up at home for postpartum care and assistance several times in first week and twice weekly thereafter. At 3 weeks, mother takes baby to a lactation clinic because baby has still not regained birth weight and milk production seems to be decreasing. IBCLC works with mother to create a full lactation management plan to increase baby's intake and mother's milk production. When doula next visits, mother fills her in on the plan and doula dismisses it, saying that the baby “just needs to breastfeed and don't worry about doing all that extra stuff.”* Mother of a preterm baby in the NICU is discouraged when staff discusses possibility of adding human milk fortifier to her expressed milk and asks to talk to an IBCLC. A meeting is arranged where an IBCLC, a registered dietitian, and a neonatal physician's assistant are all present to engage in conversation with mother about using fortified human milk, information about risks and benefits is provided to mother in advance so she can think about it, mother is encouraged to ask questions and the team works with her to consider all options, including waiting a bit longer, starting it right away, and avoiding it completely.Lots of babies get formula, and lots of new parents use breast pumps.The issue at hand is how they end up there.Did they actually have the information they needed to choose them?Did they actually get the lactation support they needed at the time they needed it?Is it what they wanted to do or what they ended up doing because they didn't know what else to do?Did anyone really help them and show them the respect they deserve?So many times, we hear from mothers who do not feel they were supported.But there are also times we hear from people who don't even realize how unsupported they were.They think that their “breastfeeding-supportive doctor” was really helping when they patted them on the back and said “it's so good that you tried but since it's not working you should stop.”They think that the postpartum nurses who helped them work on latching really did everything they could before bringing in some formula.They think that the person on their social media feed who said that pumping was just easier so they should not stress so much about breastfeeding really had their best interests in mind.They think that the formula ads they read which promised them that a little bit of formula would save their mental health and ensure they got more sleep were factual health information and the company really cares about them.Fake lactation support can be hard to spot if you don't know what to look forI hope that if you are here, reading this, that you already understand the difference between true and fake lactation support.But if you are feeling a bit shaky about what I've said here because you're not sure where the line in the sand really is, or you've received this article as a Share from someone else, here are some rules of thumb:* If you're not trained in lactation, the kindest and most effective thing you can do is to ensure that your friend/relative/coworker/stranger in the coffee shop knows exactly how to get qualified lactation help. Avoid the urge to give advice you are unqualified to give.* No matter who you are and how you are trained and certified, never make up an answer to a question about breastfeeding or lactation; this isn't about your best guess or what you “think” is right. Refer to someone who is trained to answer the question.* If you are qualified to provide peer breastfeeding support and lactation education (information only), do that and do it well. However, beyond educating on the normal physiology of breastfeeding, it's out of your scope. Refer up to someone who can figure out why this dyad isn't falling within normal limits.* If you are qualified to “counsel” on lactation, do that, and if the problem exceeds your scope of practice, knowledge, or experience level, refer up.* If you are qualified to provide skilled lactation support because you are an IBCLC, you're the one who has the training to help people with complex lactation situations, like medical complications. You are qualified to recommend changes to a feeding plan as part of the larger healthcare team including the dyad's physicians and, where available, a breastfeeding medicine physician.It's always better to offer kindness and understanding and encouragement to get qualified help than to try to offer advice you are not qualified to give.Misinformation harms breastfeeding relationships, and well-intentioned but incorrect breastfeeding information is harmful.Stay alert and help the parents in your care avoid fake lactation support and find actual lactation support.Thanks for sticking with me on this long journey. I appreciate that you have taken the time to read!If you have a moment, it would be amazing if you shared this with someone you know who a)would be interested and or b)needs to read it.This Evolve Lactation post is public so please feel free to share it!Evolve Lactation is a reader-supported publication.

- In alignment with the global observance of World Breastfeeding Week from August 1st to 7th, Saint Lucia is extending its celebration throughout the entire month of August. To mark this important observance, the Ministry has organized a series of educational sessions and workshops at Wellness Centres Island wide.   This year's theme, “Closing the Gap: Breastfeeding Support for All,” underscores the Ministry of Health, Wellness and Elderly Affairs' steadfast commitment to promoting and supporting breastfeeding across the island.   Chief Nutritionist, Lisa Hunt, highlights the essential role of healthcare professionals in providing personalized support and information to breastfeeding mothers, “The doctor can provide help and advice to mothers on how to feed their babies. They can educate them on how breastfeeding can protect them and their babies from some health risks. Doctors can also inform pregnant women about what to expect and encourage them to seek assistance as needed. Nutritionists and dietitians can support breastfeeding by advising mothers on healthy food choices to help fuel milk production, while the nurse can provide information, guidance and support the mother during her breastfeeding journey. ”   The events aim to empower breastfeeding mothers and spotlight the extensive support systems available to them, from healthcare professionals to community support groups.   The Ministry encourages community members to support breastfeeding mothers. Whether through words of encouragement, providing a comfortable space for breastfeeding, or sharing educational resources, every effort counts in making Saint Lucia a supportive environment for breastfeeding.   Breastfeeding has profound benefits, not only nurturing the bond between mother and child but also enhancing the health of both. It reduces the risk of several diseases in children and mothers alike and has been proven to be associated with higher intelligence scores in children.

This comprehensive support network is essential in ensuring that breastfeeding mothers receive the encouragement and assistance they need to successfully breastfeed. This month-long initiative is a celebration of breastfeeding mothers and their unique journeys.

The Lactation Training Lab Podcast

Something is missing in modern parenthood. Parents find a lot of messaging in their lives but not a lot of actual information about how to implement things. Social media is an easy structure on which to place blame, but truly all media holds some responsibility. Cherry-picked research articles framed in ways to grab attention, advertising space offered to anyone who can pay, mis- and dis-information peddlers protected by free speech - these all play a role in how parents are constantly shown bits and pieces of facts and myths, broken up and dissociated from a larger framework that would give any of them context. Commercial influencers and companies say whatever they need to say to earn money. It might be based on fact but missing large pieces of relevant perspective. It could be based on myths that persist despite being scientifically refuted, or simply presented in a confusing way. (Here I am thinking specifically of infant formula manufacturers telling parents that breastfeeding causes mental health issues and formula does not - one of those things that could seem simple if you aren't given all of the information.) A long time ago I wrote on a piece of paper that “nothing means anything by itself.” I go back to that thought all the time. Perspective and context are absolutely everything. Nothing is simple. Even if you have the type of personality which sees the world as black or white, A or B, good or bad, you are still taking things into account when you do that. I spend a lot of time thinking about what would make things better for parents who want to breastfeed* their babies. How could we simplify things so that they had the information they needed before they even need it?The problem is that we can't simplify it. It's complex. It's nuanced and personal and related to so many things that it isn't possible to distill everything down to the simplest messages that will resonate for everyone. Tell me a universal “truth” about lactation and I'll show you an example of an exception. We try and try to create messages that are positive and informative and useful for all, and in the end there's always at least one negative response OR a person who tells you that it didn't work that way for them. One of the concepts I teach my students and interns is exactly this: there's no one way to solve any lactation problem your client brings you. If you think there is, you are not providing client-centered care. A messaging ecosystem I built recently revolves around these 2 tenets: breastfeeding is important, and breastfeeding help is available. I stand behind these statements because I believe they are helpful to many, but I know for a fact that there are exceptions. Breastfeeding IS important, but there are cases where it is less important or holds more risk than not breastfeeding. Help IS available to many folks, but unfortunately, it is not always accessible, affordable, of high quality, culturally-matched, etc. In the end, though, these 2 statements make for a solid foundation on which I can make many points of conversation. They allow me to expand in ways that I need to expand in specific settings. It is never simple to talk about breastfeeding. The longer I am involved in activities which require me to do so, the more I feel that in my bones. One of the most popular social media posts I have ever made is here: It's 100% true. No matter who is involved in a conversation about lactation, they are involved on a personal level. Think you're talking to someone who has no horse in that race? Chances are, someone they love has one. When you talk about breastfeeding, people find meaning far beyond your intentions. We have a responsibility to be sensitive to that, but more importantly, those of us who have been privileged to become educated about it have a responsibility to share our knowledge in ways that can improve things for others. Ultimately, that means that people will be sharing their knowledge in a wide variety of ways, and sometimes those ways won't resonate with us personally. We just have to remember that they will resonate with others. This is never more obvious than during events like National Breastfeeding Month and World Breastfeeding Week. We will all do well - including me - to show grace and continue to elevate all voices which endeavour to share wisdom and knowledge about breastfeeding in nuanced and complex ways, even if their tone or wording feels uncomfortable to us. I also think that the responsibility to share our knowledge also shows up in the ways we choose to serve families. If it has been on your heart and mind to teach prenatal breastfeeding education, I'm feeling that lately, too. Because I have recently been working with lactation folks who want to rediscover or redefine their purpose in this work, the topic of prenatal education keeps surfacing. When you know your specific reasons, objectives, and the people you most want to serve as a lactation care provider, developing a prenatal breastfeeding course is a natural fit. While hospitals and obstetric practices may offer their patients online education about breastfeeding, it is inherently generic and basic. Breastfeeding isn't generic or basic, and as previously established, it's not simple. Why should a prenatal breastfeeding course be basic? You could use your specific talents, knowledge, background, cultural reality, language, past career perspective, or whatever is really unique about YOU to develop a prenatal breastfeeding course that targets your intended audience. We don't have to just pick what kind of course to teach from topics like “getting started” or “how to combine breastfeeding with work.” With the technology available to us, we can create really special courses and find exactly the right people to teach. And we don't have to limit ourselves to teaching only pregnant folks, either - we can develop supportive courses that are available on-demand to new parents with babies and toddlers that educate them on the current realities of their feeding journeys.Of course, educating folks about breastfeeding helps them understand the importance of getting help if they need it, it brings them into peer support groups, and it builds up those relationships we most need in our lactation practices. It helps parents feel good about how they are being proactive and getting prepared. It helps them get answers to questions that cause them to doubt themselves or their choices. It helps, period. The theme of National Breastfeeding Month this year is “This Is Our Why.” What is your why, and how could you develop a way of teaching and supporting breastfeeding families that honors your why?

There isn't anything you can say about breastfeeding in our culture that won't be met with vitriol and accusations. It can be true, it can be your personal experience, it can be the literal results of a well-done scientific study that was not funded by industry or anyone with a financial or reputational stake in the outcome. If you say “breastfeeding,” it will be met with polite argument at best, insult and accusation at worst. We know this is where we are, and we work really hard to create messaging that will help spread accurate information about breastfeeding and human milk in a way that educates and influences those in a position to make a personal choice about feeding their infants or to influence others' choices. It's complex, but we do the work because we know it matters. Occasionally, though, we experience these moments of Many Eyes Upon Us because of some large or significant or splashy study about breastfeeding that the mainstream media picks up and amplifies. (Also happens predictably each August during World Breastfeeding Week.) Now, admittedly, I am biased toward research which gives me something tangible that I can use to impact my lactation clients right now, something I can tell my client with the non-latching baby or the difficulty finding the right routine to make exclusive pumping work in their situation. I want practical stuff, clinical things. I want to help people feel successful with their lactation journeys right now. Research about long-term outcomes is useful, but it's not helpful to me on a day-to-day basis. I need to know it, and I value it for its part in the larger picture of why breastfeeding is important. (I say that with full confidence that it will anger someone who will say that I am biased because I say that breastfeeding is important. But we cannot refute that breastfeeding is the physiological norm for the mammal, which we are. I am biased toward things which are important to upholding the physiological norm, like being able to breathe without impediment, not being infected by pathogens, consuming high-quality nutrients that fuel the body, moving one's limbs without pain, etc - you see, all things all I am biased toward which serve to preserve health and survival over the lifespan, and breastfeeding is one of those things.)The study currently being screamed aloud talks about long-term cognitive outcomes of breastfeeding. Cool. But can I please get a study on pump flange size and impact on milk output? How about some on the “new mastitis protocol?” What about the best wound care regimen for babies who have had a tongue tie revision? If you are a person who loves breastfeeding and human milk and want to see it shouted from the rooftops, then this study about cognitive outcomes is pretty easy to get behind. But it doesn't really help us today. It doesn't actually give us something new to say or do in the hospital room of an exhausted, overwhelmed new mother who is trying to decide how important breastfeeding truly is to her as she's struggling. It does not help me offer better technique to the lactating parent of a 4-month old whose milk production is falling off when they are still pumping the same amount of times per day. I can't use this information about cognition outcomes on a regular basis. You can't say to someone who is in tears over their lactation situation that “breastfeeding makes babies smarter!” Evolve Lactation with Christine Staricka IBCLC is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.That's why I don't engage in social media battles about things like this. You won't see me debating online about a study. Most of the people who are online yelling at you about this do not understand any of the context this comes with. Sure, many responses to this piece will accurately reframe the issue around how we need evidence like this to support why it is that we need to spend loads and loads more resources on providing adequate lactation support to people and improving paid leave policies. All true, all necessary, and an absolutely key part of the larger issue and the context people really need to have in order to understand what this study means. But there's even more. It's not JUST that. There's the commercial influence on infant feeding part of it, there's the fact that (not to beat a dead horse, but…) we actually need plenty more scientific research on the nuts and bolts of human lactation in order to improve people's experiences, there's the commercial influence on the experience of lactation (with all the tools and devices and things that are being marketed to parents), there's the greater issues of access to health care and health insurance and poverty and health literacy and lack of family support and, well, you get it.The context is not only that we need to provide better lactation support so that people can actually do the thing that helps support brain development. It's multi-layered and complex, and it reflects so many other things we debate in the US and elsewhere. Like I said, it's cool to think that (as this study says), breastfeeding might lead to better cognitive outcomes later on in childhood/adolescence. It just isn't the most salient thing that a pregnant woman or a new parent needs to hear. It's a public health teaching tool, but it's not an individual counseling tool. We've got to separate those things and treat them each differently. Splashing a headline about breastfeeding babies being smarter does not actually achieve any of our goals, and it further alienates people we really want to help grow in their understanding. Let's be thoughtful and intentional about this, and let it be a call for all that clinical research we need.

In honor of World Breastfeeding Week (which is August 1-7), Dr. Shannon and doula Rachael sit down and chat about their own breastfeeding experiences.  And although through both of their experiences they were able to nurse their 2 children for ~ 2 years each, their journeys were very different.  From battling cesarean recovery to bottle refusal to mastitis and forceful letdowns, they share what worked for them and what helped in their breastfeeding experiences.  They then share what tips and resources they offer their patients, pulled from their own experiences, from the experiences of the moms and families they work with, and other birth professionals and lactation experts in the community.  These tips and resources are not exhaustive though!  One key aspect to having a satisfying breastfeeding journey is finding the support and help that you need, and a key factor that both Dr. Shannon and Rachael agree on is taking breastfeeding and lactation support classes while pregnant and connecting with a lactation consultant.  Resources:Watch your posture! - Ep 31: Why is nursing posture important Ep 57: Pediatric Chiropractic Care and Cranial Adjustments - Interview with Dr. Martin RosenBadass Breastfeeding PodcastThis podcast was created from a desire to share conversations and interviews about topics from pregnancy and birth to motherhood and the importance of a healthy body and mind through it all.  Our goal is to bring you fun, interesting, and helpful conversations that excite you and make you want to learn more.  We hope what we share will make an impact and help someone else along their journey.  We believe that when you are aligned in body, mind, and your intuition, you can conquer anything!  If you like what you are hearing and you don't want to miss our newest episodes, be sure and tap subscribe.
