UPDATE!! I CANNOT TAKE IT!
@nickysunshine went for her follow up appointment today at the @mountsinainyc #dubinbreastcenter about her wounded breast due to no breastfeeding support ONLY TO BE TOLD NO BABIES ARE ALLOWED.

AT 👏🏽 THE 👏🏽BREAST 👏🏽 CENTER! 👏🏽👏🏽

Please let these folks know that babies and breasts go together and arcane policies that ignore the lived experience of mothers only cause hurt and harm.

It must stop!

This is a real breast.

And when breastfeeding support is lacking, too expensive, and non-existent among physicians bad things can happen to breastfeeding mamas. Especially Black & brown ones.

Join me LIVE today at NOON ET as I speak with this determined breastfeeding mom who faced obstacle after obstacle after tomfoolery, racism and ignorance to continue breastfeeding despite this 👆🏾👆🏾

Unbeknownst to many, I spend a lot of time behind the scenes responding to breastfeeding “fires” in my community. I am honored that people (often strangers) reach out to me hoping I can help fix their breastfeeding problem and get them to connected to resources and support.

Friends used to call me “the Olivia Pope of breastfeeding.” But frankly I was more flattered as a fashionista. Did you see those outfits??🤣🤣🤣

But seriously helping this mama a few weeks ago and trying to get her situation “handled” hurt me to my core! I’m honored she is brave enough to join me today to share her experience— I hope you will join so you can hear in real time what failures and gaps in lactation support and breast knowledge is doing to mothers and all lactating people.

Milkshake Monday LIVE Noon ET. Today is IG only!

It’s a celebration Sunday!

We’ve made it through unprecedented times.

And I still have good days and days where my productivity is meh.

But I’m learning to celebrate the small wins and the big ones. My triumphs, lessons learned, uncomfortable moments, and even the challenges that help me grow.

I’m celebrating my gratitude for my health, for my children, and for having a life where my work is doing what I love, especially building the @theirthapp and the Birthright podcast.

So much to celebrate!
What are you celebrating this Sunday??
