Breastfeeding 101 from Nurtured Nest covers the basics of breastfeeding, so you can feed your baby with peace and confidence. We address the biomechanics of lactation (what’s going on in there, anyway?), hunger cues, latch, common issues, pumping, and how to supplement with formula, donor milk, or stored milk if needed. We also talk through some of the complicated cultural understanding (and misunderstanding) around breastfeeding and pumping.

This content is great for first-time moms, but it’s just as useful for moms going through childbirth again. Remember--just like children, no two feeding journeys are alike.
