infant feeding

Hear all about the MOTR approach to baby-led weaning. In this episode, we share our takes on: 

• what we think of baby-led weaning
• how it’s different from simply “starting solids” 
• overcoming obstacles mothers face when considering solids (fear of choking, allergens, breastfeeding relationships, etc). 
• why we don’t care about added sodium for infants and what that evidence actually says (hint: it’s inconclusive)
• how we feel about purée pouches and stereotypical “baby food”
• why your pediatrician is not the expert on baby-led weaning
• signs of readiness and why anything under 6 months old is too young to start solids

Stay tuned for part 2 for an even deeper dive on meals we offer our children, BLW hacks, staying the course during travel and dining out, and so much more.

Resources:

• Lily Nichol's article debunking the infant sodium intake myth
• Episode #84 of Unapologetically Unmedicated: Buy for Baby, Bye for Mommy with Andrea Haskins
• Katie Ferraro's Baby Led Weaning Made Easy Program (not affiliates, but we loved this program nonetheless)

As obstetricians we can be ignorant of infant feeding issues and its not our fault incredible as it seems we have no training in this and it turns out loads of other professional don't either. To help me discuss this sometimes tricky issue I am joined by Lyndsey Hookway lactation consultant,  researcher and author.

Listener question: I just moved up to size 2 bottle nipples from size 1. Should I buy size 2 nipples for all of the 10 bottles I have so each one has its own size 2 nipple, instead of sometimes using size 1 and other times using size 2 nipples?

It’s season 4 and to kick us off you have me and Rachel chewing the fat on all things breastfeeding and lactation. In this episode, we delve in to look at what is going on with in-hospital formula milk supplementation for breastfed infants. We ask why the supplementation rates are so high, and discuss it’s impact on breastfeeding, and lactation physiology. We talk about teat/bottle confusion, the best ways to give extra feeds and the acceptable medical reasons for this. We discuss why avoidance of top up feeds can be so hard in the early postnatal days for both the midwifery staff and new mothers, and we talk about the "top-up-trap", or as Rachel has termed it ”the top-up crap-trap”, and why it is so common for new parents to fall into once back at home. Rachel gives us an amazing impression of baby sleeping, please don't miss this it really is a treat for the ears, and following us along the way are the cicadas and noisy guinea fowl all joining us in the background from 'down at farm Rachel'!  

The waiting is over folks, we're back and we're ready to fill ya luggols with all those golden nuggets you've been missing!

Today's episode is fresh off the mic, covering the latest presentation and report from the World Health Organization on the $55 billion a year formula industry. The marketing practices of formula companies are exploitative, do not provide informed choice, and prey on the vulnerabilities of new mothers. To be clear, we are discussing the marketing of formula--not the product itself.

In this episode you'll hear:

• How formula companies market their products (it's not always obvious)
• Why formula marketing is a problem
• The real world impact of overuse of formula
• Ways we can work to change the problems with formula marketing

The first year of a baby’s life is a vulnerable time for both the baby and the parents. Non-judgmental support and resources can make all the difference for families, particularly in close-knit communities. Heather Preece founded Kodiak Kindness with the goal of nourishing both the body and soul through infant feeding support and compassionate care.

In this episode of The Connected Care Team, Heather discusses using TigerConnect Patient Engagement to support families within the Kodiak community and how her team provides creative care during COVID-19.

It's Black Breastfeeding Week!

Join us to chat with midwife, Dr. Stephanie DeVane-Johnson, PhD, CNM, FACNM, about some basics of the health disparities and history of breastfeeding in the Black community, and how we move forward with healing. Trigger warning: we explore some of the historic and present day trauma of breastfeeding for Black people.

Dr. DeVane-Johnson has more than 23 years experience as a midwife and her research focuses on breastfeeding and health disparities in African Americans. She has written and published on the impact that cultural and socio-historical influences have on African American infant feeding decisions. Her work is a key piece of understanding how the Black maternal and infant health crisis can be changed. This is an incredible opportunity for us to listen up and make changes.

Don't miss this episode!

Dr. DeVane-Johnson has asked that we donate to the Kira Johnson Fund as a part of making these changes. You can join us in donating here:  https://secure.actblue.com/donate/march-for-moms
