Worried your baby isn’t getting enough milk? You’re definitely not alone. 💛

Milk supply works largely on supply and demand, so frequent and effective milk removal is important.

But before adding endless pumping sessions or “top-up” pumps, it helps to understand what’s actually happening. Sometimes perceived low supply and true low supply are two very different things.

A feeding assessment can help take the guesswork out of it and give you a plan that suits you and your baby.

Everyone prepares you for birth. Far fewer people prepare you for what happens afterwards. 💗

Your baby arrives and suddenly all the attention shifts to this beautiful little person you've brought into the world.

Meanwhile, your body is still doing an extraordinary amount of work.

Your hormones are changing. Your uterus is contracting. Your pelvic floor is recovering. You're bleeding, healing, adjusting to broken sleep and experiencing emotions that can seemingly change by the minute.

Postpartum recovery isn't a race back to your "old self".

It's a period of enormous physical and emotional change, and you deserve time, care and support while your body finds its new normal.

Be patient with yourself, beautiful mumma. You've done something incredible. 🌸

A tender, swollen or red breast combined with feeling feverish or unwell can be a sign of mastitis. 🌸

Continue breastfeeding as comfortably as you can and avoid aggressive massage or trying to completely “empty” the breast.

Cold packs between feeds and anti-inflammatory medication, where appropriate for you, may also help with pain and inflammation.

If symptoms aren’t improving or you’re feeling increasingly unwell, please seek medical advice.

Those little red spots can look alarming but this common newborn rash is usually completely harmless. 👶💗

Erythema toxicum often appears during the first few days after birth. It can seemingly arrive out of nowhere, with red patches, small spots or tiny pale centres appearing across your baby’s skin.

And despite the rather dramatic name, it generally doesn’t bother baby at all. No pain, no itching and usually no treatment required.

Your baby’s skin has spent months protected by amniotic fluid and is suddenly adjusting to a whole new world of air, clothing, touch and temperature. Erythema toxicum can simply be part of that early transition.

The good news? It usually disappears on its own within days to a week. 💛

Of course, newborn skin can change quickly. If you’re unsure about a rash, your baby seems unwell, or something simply doesn’t feel right, always have your baby assessed by an appropriate health professional.

SORE NI***ES?
Breastfeeding shouldn’t leave you dreading the next feed.

Sore ni***es might be common in the early days of breastfeeding, but ongoing pain isn’t something you simply have to put up with. 💛

Often, ni**le pain comes back to latch or positioning. A small adjustment can make a BIG difference to your comfort and help protect your ni***es from further damage.

If feeding hurts, getting your latch checked early can save you a whole lot of discomfort.
