We were lucky enough that Laurel Wilson IBCLC reac We were lucky enough that Laurel Wilson IBCLC reached out to us to do a podcast. We have been big fans of Laurel for a number of years. I attended a talk to hers in Grand Rapids a number of years ago and was hooked! Don’t know Laurel Wilson IBCLC yet? Laurel has the site Mother Journey. “Tens of thousands of research articles are published each year with potential health implications for new families. Healthcare providers rarely have the time to read, digest, and implement the growing database of research. At Mother Journey, keeping up with the perinatal research is something Laurel is committed to. She watches trends in health care, prepares succinct, insightful presentations, helps YOU provide better care to families.” Yes! Laurel is doing presentations on epigenetics (something that I am blown away by) and the implications for breastfeeding. I have now seen several more of her discussions of the biological implications of not breastfeeding. So important! Take a listen to this podcast to learn more about her work in the breastfeeding world. "All Things Breastfeeding" Podcast is available on most podcast streaming platforms 👏🏻 #breastfeeding #epigenetics #IBCLC #lactationconsultant #lactationsupport #breastfeedingsupport #breastmilk #humanmilk #laurelwilson

Would you like an effective method for pumping mor Would you like an effective method for pumping more milk? Until 2009, most of us assumed that when a mother used a breast pump, the pump should do all of the milk-removal work. But this changed when Jane Morton and her colleagues published a ground-breaking study in the Journal of Perinatology. The mothers in this study were pumping exclusively for premature babies in the hospital’s neonatal intensive care unit. Amazingly, when these mothers used their HANDS as well as their pump to express milk, they pumped an average of 48 percent more milk than the pump alone could remove. (wow!) According to another study, this milk also contained twice as much fat as when mothers used only the pump. According to previous research, in most mothers exclusively pumping for premature babies, milk production falters after three to four weeks. But the mothers using this “hands-on” technique continued to increase their milk production throughout their babies’ entire first eight weeks, the entire length of the study. How does this work? Follow these steps: ✅ Massage both breasts. ✅ Double pump, compressing your breasts as much as you can while pumping. (Search “hands free pumping” online for devices that fit any brand of pump and allow you to double pump with both hands free.) Continue until milk flow slows to a trickle. ✅ Massage your breasts again, concentrating on areas that feel full. ✅ Finish by either hand expressing your milk into the pump’s nipple tunnel or single pumping, whichever yields the most milk. Either way, during this step, do intensive breast compression on each breast, moving back and forth from breast to breast several times until you’ve drained both breasts as fully as possible.
