Your baby has every right to eat in public. PERIOD. 👏🤱

We’ve been talking a lot about breastfeeding in public lately at The Hive and during lactation consults, and we want every mom to hear this:
You do NOT need to cover up to make someone else comfortable. If you prefer a cover, that’s great too! But the choice should always be YOURS. 💛

And while we’re talking about feeding on the go… can we talk about how amazing breastfeeding in a baby carrier can be?!

Whether you’re chasing a toddler, out running errands, or simply want a little more flexibility, learning to nurse in your carrier can be a total game changer!

We love practicing this skill with families during our lactation consults. A few adjustments to positioning can make a huge difference in comfort and confidence.
Just remember to always support baby during feeds, keep their airway clear and visible, and return them to a safe, upright carrier position when finished.

“But how do I KNOW my baby is getting enough milk?” 💕

If you’ve ever wondered this while breastfeeding, you’re in good company. It’s one of the most common questions we hear from new parents.

Unlike bottle feeding, breastfeeding doesn’t come with ounce markers. But your baby gives us clues!

From diaper counts and swallowing to weight gain and feeding behavior, there are several things we look at to understand how breastfeeding is going.

And here’s something important: No single sign tells the whole story. A sleepy baby isn’t necessarily a full baby, and a fussy baby isn’t necessarily a hungry baby.

That’s why we look at the whole picture.

Our IBCLCs at Babies in Bloom are here to help you understand what is normal, what might need a little attention, and how to feel more confident about feeding your baby.

📌 SAVE this post for those middle-of-the-night feeding questions.

Twenty years as an IBCLC, and I just recertified for five more. 💕 Swipe for a few favorite moments from the last 20 years.

If you’re looking for an experienced lactation consultant in Carlsbad, here’s what that means to me: thousands of feeding conversations, a lot of ‘is this normal?’ questions, and a lot of babies who are now much bigger than I remember. Recertifying means I’m still learning and still showing up for new parents every week.

Thank you to every family who has trusted me with their first days, weeks and months. I’m grateful for each one of you. I’d love to hear how your (probably not so) little one is doing now. ☺️

Is lactation support covered by insurance?

Often, yes. Many plans cover visits with an IBCLC, and coverage varies by plan, so it helps to check before you book.

Babies in Bloom accepts most major insurance plans, plus HSA and FSA. Tap the link on our website to check your coverage ahead of time, and send this to a friend who’s been putting off making the call. 💕

Turns out I’m much better at giving lactation advice than receiving compliments. 😂🥹

But truly, this review meant so much to me. One of my favorite parts of being an IBCLC is getting to know the families behind the feeding plans, weighted feeds, pumps, and bottles.

Olivia and her husband were one of those families I just clicked with. Somewhere along the way, we discovered our shared love of Ted Lasso and The Great British Baking Show, and from there… obviously we were meant to be. 😂

I’m so grateful for the families who trust me to be a small part of such a tender season of their lives. And Olivia, while I still maintain that you do NOT need to drive an hour to see me 😂, I’m so glad our paths crossed. 🤍

Also, please don’t let Rochelle make me read any more reviews on camera. 😅
