First: comment FLANGE GUIDE! 

Did you know: most pumps come with a standard 24 or 28 mm flange size. This is way too big for most moms. We worked hard to create a comprehensive flange sizing guide full of how-to examples, expert IBCLC advice, case studies, and more all designed to help you on your flange sizing journey.

Have you ever heard of a hair tourniquet? 

This is a term for when a piece of hair or thread from clothes or a blanket get wrapped around a child’s toe(s) or finger(s). It can happen with other parts of the body like ankles, wrists, tongues or genitals.
If baby is inconsolable though you’ve tried everything (diaper, feeding, walking, cuddles), check out their digits!
A mom tip we have seen shared is to have a toolkit handy consisting of small nail clippers or nail scissors, tweezers and even Nair! These can be helpful in removing that tangled hair from baby’s body but if you are unable to remove it quickly, seek medical help ASAP! The hair can become tight enough that it blocks blood flow to the area and can damage tissue.
Do frequent checks of baby (every diaper change is a good time!) and also of their clothing and blankets to trim any loose threads.
Have you ever experienced this before? How did you manage?

Try this on your next pump:

Start in stimulation/letdown mode until milk is flowing (usually 1–3 min).

Switch to expression and pump until the flow slows.

When it slows, don’t stop — go back to stimulation for 30–60 sec to trigger another letdown, then back to expression.

Add hands-on pumping (gentle compressions) to keep flow going.

Use warmth before and during pumping 

Make sure your flange fit + parts are correct and not too old (wrong size or worn valves = lower output).

A nipple shield is sometimes introduced when baby is having a hard time breastfeeding for reasons like:
✨Baby is unable to latch
✨Shallow Latch
✨Baby is born premature
✨Needs the extra stimulation to trigger sucking
Or when mom is experiencing: ✨Cracked, sore, or damaged nipples
✨Flat nipples
✨Inverted nipples
Did you know? Nipple shields come in different shapes sizes. Find the best fit for your nipple size and the best shape for baby’s needs for better feeding outcomes.
A nipple shield can be a helpful tool for keeping baby at breast and moms should feel educated, not shamed, when it comes to using a nipple shield. You can ask your provider to create a plan with you when it comes to utilizing this lactation aid. The goal with a nipple shield is to help the baby latch and feed at the breast and eliminate damage to mom’s areola and nipple. Your IBCLC can help you identify the underlying causes of what is going on, leading to more functional and comfortable feeding for you and your little one. 💕

Kissing your baby changes your breast milk!

When you kiss your baby, you sample germs on their skin, bring that into your body where your lymphatic system creates antibodies to then protect baby via your breast milk!
Breast milk is living so it is constantly changing in real time in response to you and your baby and your environments. Any pathogens (germs 🦠) you come into contact with and transferred to your lymphatic system where your body then makes antibodies specific to those germs.
Those new antibodies are sent out through your breast milk and into your baby’s system to help protect them from any illnesses they/you have been exposed to.
This means these protections pass onto your baby even when you are exclusively pumping! You and your baby share environments so are exposed to the same germs, but by kissing baby, you get any of those germs that you may not have encountered but that they did and STILL produce protections against those yucky germs.
The human body is amazing!!

She did not just visit. She showed up. Send this to a woman who has shown up for you like this!! 

When a best friend walks into the hospital after you give birth, it shifts the entire experience. Not in a highlight reel way, but in the ways that actually hold a mother together. Holding the baby so she can rest. Making sure she eats. Sitting beside her when the emotions come in waves. Being calm, steady, and present without needing to be asked.

Repost, share, and save this reel so more women can see the real power of a village. This is female friendship. Welcome to @legendairywomen a space for moms and women to feel seen and heard. Follow so you never miss a post!

Research shows that strong support from other women during pregnancy and postpartum is linked to lower rates of postpartum depression and anxiety, reduced stress, better emotional regulation, and improved recovery. Feeling emotionally understood and practically supported is one of the most protective factors for maternal mental health.

This kind of care is not a bonus. It is foundational for a mother’s health and wellbeing.

But the benefits of female friendship do not stop with motherhood. Close female friendships support women at every stage of life. 

Studies associate strong social bonds with lower cortisol levels, greater resilience, and better long term health outcomes for women. Our nervous systems are wired for connection. We regulate, heal, and thrive better together.

So if you are the friend who shows up, know that what you are doing matters deeply. And if you are the one receiving support, you are not asking for too much. You are honoring what your body and mind need. When women are supported by other women, everyone benefits. Families are steadier. Children learn what healthy connection looks like. Mothers heal. 

Save this as a reminder. Share it with the woman who showed up for you. Or send it to the friend you would drop everything for. 🫶

The struggle is real 🥴
High lipase = soapy/metallic smell after freezing—not spoilage. Most babies can still drink it. The goal is taste management, not panic.

Lipase facts:

Lipase is a normal fat-digesting enzyme; some milk just tastes “off” faster after chilling/freezing.

Routine scalding isn’t ideal because heat can reduce beneficial components—reserve it only if baby refuses and you’ve weighed pros/cons with your IBCLC/pediatrician.

Hacks that actually help:

❤️Freeze ASAP. Chill quickly and move to the freezer sooner; store in small 2–3 oz portions for faster cooling/thawing.

❤️Use/rotate smart. Offer fresh milk when possible; use older/frozen milk mixed into solids once developmentally ready (6+ months).

❤️Blend to acclimate. Mix a portion of thawed milk with freshly expressed milk; serve cooler to reduce smell.

❤️Find your “window.” Do a mini test: refrigerate 2–3 oz and smell/taste every few hours to learn when your milk changes—then set your fridge-to-freezer timeline.

❤️Upgrade storage. Legendairy Milk’s UV-protecting Barrier Bags help shield milk from light and odor transfer while reducing freezer burn—great for stashes and taste preservation.

High lipase milk is still nutritious, but there are things you can do to help baby take this milk.

Know Your Rights: The PUMP Act 🍼💪
Breastfeeding mamas, you have federal protection—and it’s called the PUMP Act!

The Providing Urgent Maternal Protections (PUMP) for Nursing Mothers Act is a law that requires employers to provide:
🕒 Reasonable break time to pump breast milk
🏢 A private, non-bathroom space that’s shielded from view and free from intrusion
This applies for up to one year after your baby’s birth—and for nearly all employees, including salaried and hourly workers!

💡 Quick tips:
✔️ You don’t have to be “on the clock” while pumping (unless your employer allows it)
✔️ Your pumping space can’t be a bathroom
✔️ If your workplace isn’t following the law, you can file a complaint with the Department of Labor
This is your right. Don’t be afraid to advocate for yourself or other pumping parents. 💼🩷

Comment “BABY” on this reel to support that little tummy!

Did you know that when your baby has recurring spit‑up or reflux, it might point to more than just “a phase”? Their tiny gut is still developing — and the balance of bacteria inside it plays a key role.

Here’s what to keep in mind:
🔍 What’s going on - A baby’s gut microbiome is immature at birth and gets influenced by many factors (birth type, antibiotic exposure, formula vs breastmilk).

🧬 Why probiotics matter - Specific probiotic strains (like Lactobacillus reuteri, Bifidobacterium infantis) have been studied for helping ease digestive issues in infants.

💡 For reflux/spit‑up - Lower‑gut‑balance means less irritation, less “back‑up” of feedings, and possibly fewer episodes of spit‑up. Giving your baby a gut‑friendly boost may support this process.

📋 But remember - Probiotics are part of the picture, not the only answer. Burping often, feeding in comfortable positions, tummy‑time and keeping upright after feeding all help.

The most inconvenient, convenient excuse.

If you’re in a clusterfeeding phase, take a deep breath: this is normal infant behavior and not an automatic red flag for low supply.

Cluster feeding = periods where baby wants lots of short, frequent feeds (often in the evenings or around growth spurts at 2–3 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months). 

It’s how your baby:
Boosts your milk production (more nursing = more milk made)
Packs in extra calories for a growth spurt
Regulates their nervous system with comfort, warmth, and connection
Cluster feeding can feel never ending but these marathon feeds are usually a sign that your baby and your body are doing exactly what they’re supposed to.

The Sock Hack 👀
Sometimes stress about expectations while pumping can inhibit letdowns. Removing the pressure can be just the hack you need.
All credit for this hack goes to @milkandmotherhood . 🙌 Johanna says: “Now I advise mamas to put a sock over their pumping bottle, and it has been getting incredible results. Some women are reporting often 2-3 times more milk when they remove themselves mentally from the result of their pumping session! We know that oxytocin release is inhibited by stress, and oxytocin release is required for letdowns, so if you find you are getting stressed while watching, try it!”

“Breastfeeding makes the weight fall right off!”
…except for a lot of us, it really doesn’t.

For many breastfeeding moms, weight loss is slow, unpredictable, or doesn’t happen at all. 

Some even notice their body holding onto extra weight until after they fully wean, and that’s very normal. 

Hormones like prolactin, cortisol, and shifting estrogen/progesterone levels can:
Change how your body uses carbs and fats
Increase appetite (your body is literally trying to keep a human alive)

Encourage your body to “hang on” to fat as a safety net

If you’re breastfeeding and feel stuck in a body that doesn’t feel like “you” anymore, you’re not alone—and you’re not doing it wrong. 💛

Gentle, realistic things that can support you right now:

Prioritize whole foods when you can: protein, fiber, healthy fats, colorful plants

Walk or move your body regularly, even in short, realistic chunks

Sip water or electrolytes instead of automatically reaching for sugary drinks

Keep alcohol and added sugar in check (for mood, sleep, and hormones too)

Protect your sleep where possible (early bedtime > perfect house)

Notice all-or-nothing thinking; small, consistent choices truly matter

This season isn’t about “bouncing back.” It’s about supporting a body that’s doing a physically intense job every single day.

When you’re weaning or fully done nursing and ready to focus more on cycle health, metabolism, & feeling like yourself again, follow @legendairymilk and @legendairywomen for education, support, and wellness tools beyond breastfeeding.

When you’re weaning or fully done nursing and ready to focus more on cycle health, metabolism, & feeling like yourself again, follow @legendairymilk and @legendairywomen for education, support, and wellness tools beyond breastfeeding.
