Cherish the Chaos CLC

My absolute favorite piece of advice.

Something about getting pregnant and having a baby opens up the floodgates of information, opinions, and advice from every side. Your neighbor may share about how her baby slept through the night from the start. Your grandma may tell you about how they did things when she was a young mother. Even healthcare providers may offer differing opinions. It can be so overwhelming and sometimes discouraging if you start playing the comparison game.

But my biggest piece of advice is to do what keeps YOU sane. YOU are your baby’s mom. Not your neighbor. Not your grandma. Not your pediatrician. So at the end of the day, you need to decide what YOUR goals are and how you want YOUR family to look. And then do that!

I’m here to help support you in your goals so you can be the best version of yourself for your baby. =]

I looooooove those chunky baby cheeks! 😍 I gotta say though, my favorite spot to kiss on my babies was always their tiny little chins. 🥹

What’s one of your favorite things about your baby?

Someone asked me recently what my main focus is for my business. I’d have to say mine is twofold: relationship and education. I believe they go together because I first want you to know that I genuinely care for you and want you to be successful on your breastfeeding and motherhood journey! And that’s where the second piece, education, comes in, in that I want to help answer your questions and prepare you for this awesome season of life! =]

And we can even start that BEFORE baby comes! I offer prenatal visits to go over questions and concerns you may have, make sure you’re comfortable with skills like hand expressing and pumping, and start laying the foundation for what’s good to know, all BEFORE you’re in the thick of it!

Reach out if you want to schedule a prenatal visit so we can start building on these blocks and get you feeling prepared and ready for the journey ahead! =]

If there’s one thing I want to be as a resource for you, it’s relaxing! God knows we have enough stress and opinions and anxiety to deal with as new moms, so my goal is to help educate and encourage you so we can lessen that stress and help you find more joy in this new and amazing chaos. =]

Reach out if you want to schedule a visit—in person or virtually!

“Breastfeeding reminds us of the universal truth of abundance; the more we give out, the more we are filled up, and that divine nourishment—the source from which we all draw—is, like a mother’s breast, ever full and ever flowing.” -Sarah Buckley 

I love this quote! And I think it’s so true in life: the more we give out, the more fulfilled we become. ❤️

One of my favorite easy hacks for getting a deep latch: aim your ni**le at baby’s nose. This encourages baby to tilt their head back and open wide before coming onto the breast, helping to result in more breast tissue in the mouth and a deeper and more comfortable latch.

Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or would like to schedule a home visit! ❤️
