During an emergency, you may have many questions and feel that breastfeeding is more challenging. But this is when breastfeeding is more important than ever. โค๏ธ

Your milk provides nutrition and hydration, while breastfeeding brings comfort and closeness. Breastfeed as often as you can or whenever your child wants to. Frequent breastfeeding also helps your body keep making the milk your child needs.

Every emergency is different. Do what you can, one step at a time.

๐Ÿ’š Happy Father's Day!

Today we celebrate the fathers who support their families with love, care, and encouragement.

Fathers can play an important role in supporting breastfeeding. A kind word, help at home, holding the baby, or being there when support is needed can make a difference for mothers and babies.

Thank you to all the fathers who support their families every day.

Motherโ€™s Day brings back beautiful memories for me. โค๏ธ

When my second child was born, my mom came to help us. She cared for my first child, helped with the housework, and gave me the time and support I needed to breastfeed my son.

She did all of this in a country where she did not speak the language.

Her love, support, and encouragement made a difference in my breastfeeding journey.

Sometimes, small acts of care can change a motherโ€™s experience forever. ๐Ÿ’

A motherโ€™s love can truly change the world. Happy Motherโ€™s Day โค๏ธ

Join us for our virtual conference: 70 Years of Breastfeeding Support in a Changing World

For 70 years, across generations, cultures, and changing times, what began with seven mothers sharing their own experiences has grown into a global community of support, connection, and reliable information.
This October, we come together to celebrate that journey and continue building what mothers have always needed: support from one another.
