During this years #worldbreastfeedingweek I am thinking about the racial disparities that exist in breastfeeding initiation and continuation. A 2015 study in the US showed 69% of black people breastfed at birth while 85% of white people did. This discrepancy only grew as the child got older. Especially now with Covid. I had extreme difficulty getting access in Canada as a labour and delivery nurse! I had a virtual consult from a private company (some things just aren’t meant ...for zoom) that I had to pay for - and I felt rushed, as if my thoughts were completely overlooked. I was given basic information with no game plan. I think about how hard it was for me, someone with a lot of prior breastfeeding knowledge and privilege. I had the ability to pay out of pocket, I can stay home with my baby for 12-18 months. Even when I have other children I will be able to have support to focus on establishing breastfeeding with the newborn. Still, breastfeeding is not normalized completely even with those I surround myself with. The discrepancy between race exists, and it is evident that breastfeeding support (yes even in Canada) depends on socioeconomic status. So let’s have those tough conversations not just around normalizing breastfeeding but recognizing the disparities and sitting in the uncomfortable truth. Everyone should have the ability, choice, and support to feed their baby the way they want to. @ Long Branch See more

I’ve been told a lot of things in my almost 2 months as a new mama. Some of them helpful, most of them conflicting, and quite a few of them anxiety inducing. This is a picture after what some think is just another day on vacation. Another day where I could not find time to shower, felt guilty for holding my baby too much, not doing enough tummy time, not being able to exclusively breastfeed, and not exercising enough to get rid of my mummy tummy. I am lucky to be an L&D... nurse and yoga teacher and have been able to follow my intuition and listen to what my body and baby need. I still have moments where I second guess myself. But, I know I’m feeding my baby well and that my body did not fail me. I know I am giving him everything he needs to grow, and that if he doesn’t hit a developmental milestone right on time it’s not because I put him in his swing instead of tummy time so I could eat my first meal of the day and drink a glass of water. And I know that beauty is so much more than a flat stomach and I want to continue to get strong and stay healthy but I also will continue to eat chocolate chips out of the Costco size bag and have days where I walk only 500 steps. So in two months I have been watching Max take everything in, mesmerized by the world around him while I watch mesmerized by him. Motherhood is no vacation, but it is freaking amazing. To all the mamas out there, I see you. You are doing great. See more
