Did you know even a small amount of lead can have a BIG impact on your child’s health? πŸ πŸ’‘

Lead can hide in places you might not expectβ€”peeling paint, tap water from old pipes, dust, soil, toys, and even some pottery or home remedies. Exposure can affect brain development, slow growth, and cause lifelong health and behavior problems.

Protect your family:
βœ”οΈ Check your home for lead risks
βœ”οΈ Use safe water sources
βœ”οΈ Keep play areas clean

Let’s work together to create a healthier, safer Siouxland for all children! πŸ’™

πŸ’œ National Breastfeeding Month- Until Next Time!

As National Breastfeeding Month comes to an end, we want to remind every family:

There is no single β€œright” feeding journey! Whether you breastfeed, pump, combination feed, or your feeding journey looks different than you planned, you are doing something important for your baby!

At Siouxland WIC, we're here to support you through every stage, from pregnancy and those first days with your baby to pumping, returning to work, introducing foods, and everything in between.

Have questions? We're here for you!

Every Stage Is a Milestone!πŸ…

As babies grow, their feeding journeys grow with them. This can mean changes in breastfeeding or pumping, new foods, new routines, or eventually beginning the weaning process.

And here's something important to remember: There is no single β€œright” timeline.

Every family is different. Every baby is different. Every feeding journey can look different. Whether you're celebrating your first feeding, reaching a breastfeeding milestone, introducing new foods, or beginning to wean, your journey deserves support!

What feeding milestone are you most proud of? Tell us below! πŸ‘‡

Last week, we talked about pumping and the support WIC has to offer for your pumping journey. This week, we're talking about something that can make such a difference in any feeding journey: Support!

For breastfeeding parents, support isn't always about someone knowing exactly what to say. Sometimes it's:
πŸ’§ Bringing a glass of water.
🍽️ Making dinner.
πŸ‘Ά Holding the baby so a parent can take a break.
🧼 Helping with pump parts.
πŸ’¬ Listening without judgment.
❀️ Simply saying, β€œI've got you.”

Tag someone who has supported you along your journey or tell us what support meant to you. πŸ’™
