Feeding challenges aren't always about what we can see.

Join us for โ€œFrom Breast to Beyond: Integrating Oral Motor/Feeding, Myofunctional Skills and Tethered Oral Tissues from an SLP Perspective,โ€ a Great Lakes Breastfeeding Webinar exploring how oral motor skills, myofunctional development, and tethered oral tissues can influence feeding from the very beginning.

This session will help participants look beyond structure to better understand function, recognize compensatory feeding patterns, identify red flags for referral, and support families using an evidence-informed approach to breast and bottle feeding. Together, we'll explore practical strategies to strengthen assessment, education, and interdisciplinary collaboration in feeding support.

Happy World Breastfeeding Week! ๐Ÿคฑ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’™

๐ŸŒŽ๐Ÿ’™ **World Breastfeeding Week | August 1โ€“7** ๐Ÿ’™๐ŸŒŽ

This year's official theme is:

โœจ "Breastfeeding for a Sustainable Start in Life: Strengthen What Works." โœจ

This theme reminds us that every family deserves access to the support, education, and resources that help them reach their infant feeding goals. By strengthening the programs, communities, healthcare providers, and support networks that already make a difference, we can create a healthier future for babies, parents, and generations to come.

At Next Generation Family Services, we're honored to be part of that support system. Walking alongside families with compassionate care, evidence-based education, and encouragement every step of the way.

Whether you're expecting, newly postpartum, or continuing your breastfeeding journey, know that you don't have to do it alone. ๐Ÿ’™
