Mother Made: A Nourishing Guide to Breastfeeding Basics

Mother Made: A Nourishing Guide to Breastfeeding Basics

Breastfeeding is instinctual, but that doesn’t mean it’s always easy. As a holistic International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and a mother myself, I created this guide to be the resource I wish every mother had, one rooted in both evidence and intuition.

Mother Made is designed to prepare and empower both new and seasoned mothers to confidently navigate their breastfeeding journeys. Inside, you’ll find clear and supportive information on the anatomy of the breast and latch, foundational breastfeeding positions, how milk supply is established and protected, and what to expect in those crucial early days and weeks. You'll also discover how partners can offer meaningful support, and how to nourish yourself while you nourish your baby.

Whether you’re preparing for your first feeding or looking for a fresh start after challenges, this guide will meet you where you are with gentle wisdom, real-world strategies, and a reminder that you were made for this.
