In honor of Breastfeeding Month
Every Feeding Journey Is Unique
To Every Parent Wondering, You’re Doing Just Fine
In honor of Breastfeeding Awareness Month, we asked parents, doulas, lactation consultants, and our team to share their stories and support. What we received was raw, real, and beautiful — an open letter from many hearts to yours.
"It’s okay if breastfeeding doesn’t come naturally. It didn’t for me. I cried, I pumped, I kept trying. Then I stopped trying — and I found peace in bottle feeding. That choice was just as full of love."
– Alice, NY
Trust your gut. And drink water — seriously, you’ll forget otherwise.
– Emily, mama of two
"As a doula, I’ve worked with hundreds of families, and the one thing I say to every parent? You’re not failing. You’re finding your rhythm. There’s no ‘wrong’ way — only the way that works for you."
– Sarah, Doula & Community Member
"The first week is survival. Just skin-to-skin, rest, and lots of grace."
– Lola, mom of one
"Do what feels right for you and your baby."
"Above all, be kind to yourself. You don’t have to do it perfectly, you just have to do what feels right for you and your baby. There were many times I was told to stop or to give up. But I knew what was important to me, and with the right support, I got there. And I believe that you can too."
– Emma, Head of Marketing Snuggle Me Organic
