Stop Saying this to Breastfeeding Moms
<p>What if some of the most common breastfeeding advice isn't helping moms at all?</p><p>In this episode, we're talking about the things we need to stop telling breastfeeding mothers. From "feed 8–12 times a day" and "don't feed your baby to sleep," to "pump to see how much milk you have" and "just push through the pain," we're taking a closer look at where these messages come from, why they can be misleading, and what evidence and normal infant behavior actually tell us.</p><p>We'll cover topics like:</p><ul><li>Feeding by the clock vs. feeding your baby</li><li>Why "full feeds" aren't as simple as they sound</li><li>Normal night waking and cluster feeding</li><li>Why pump output doesn't measure your milk supply</li><li>The problem with routine triple feeding</li><li>Pain during breastfeeding</li><li>Tongue tie referrals</li><li>Feeding to sleep</li><li>And more...</li></ul><p>My goal isn't to shame parents or healthcare providers—it's to replace fear and rigid rules with practical, evidence-based information that helps you better understand your baby and trust your instincts.</p><p>Whether you're expecting your first baby, currently breastfeeding, or supporting a breastfeeding family, this episode will help you separate breastfeeding facts from breastfeeding myths.</p><p><strong>Connect with me:</strong><br>Find my breastfeeding classes, virtual consultations, podcast episodes, and resources here:<br><a href="https://linktr.ee/babywhisperer77" target="_new" rel="noopener">https://linktr.ee/babywhisperer77</a></p><p>If you enjoyed this episode, please follow the podcast, leave a rating and review, and share it with another parent who could use evidence-based breastfeeding support.</p>

<p>Moms Aren’t Failing. The Advice Is.</p><p>Let’s be honest — a lot of breastfeeding advice out there is just plain wrong.</p><p>In this unfiltered, no-sugarcoating episode, I’m calling out the most common advice that leaves moms overwhelmed, confused, and questioning their bodies.</p><p>From “feed every 3 hours” to “your baby should only nurse for 20 minutes” — we’re breaking down what’s actually happening and why this kind of guidance sets moms up to struggle.</p><p>After 20+ years as an IBCLC, I can tell you this with confidence:<br><strong>most moms aren’t failing breastfeeding — they were failed by the advice they were given.</strong></p><p>This episode is raw, honest, and yes… a little spicy.<br>But it comes from one place: making sure moms get the truth and the support they deserve.</p><p>If you’ve ever felt like breastfeeding “just didn’t work,” this one’s for you.</p><p>You’re not broken.<br>Your body didn’t fail.<br>You probably just got bad advice.</p><p>For all my breastfeeding help visit my <a href="https://www.babywhisperernicki.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">website</a></p>

Who told you that? Let’s Talk About the Advice Moms Never Question (But Should)
<p>New parents receive breastfeeding advice everywhere — from the hospital, family members, social media, and even well-meaning professionals. The problem? Much of that advice is given without anyone actually watching the baby feed.</p><p>In this episode, <strong>Nicki Davis, RN, BSN, IBCLC</strong>, breaks down some of the most common breastfeeding advice parents hear and explains why so many of these rules create more stress than solutions.</p><p>We talk about:</p><ul><li><p>Why pumping more isn’t always the answer</p></li><li><p>The truth about babies “using you as a pacifier”</p></li><li><p>Why pain during breastfeeding should never be ignored</p></li><li><p>How weight checks without context can create unnecessary panic</p></li><li><p>Why triple feeding is often suggested far too quickly</p></li></ul><p>Breastfeeding isn’t about rigid rules or watching the clock — it’s about understanding your baby, milk transfer, and feeding patterns.</p><p>If you’ve ever followed advice and thought, “Why does breastfeeding suddenly feel harder?” this episode will help you understand why — and what actually matters instead.</p><p>Visit my links below for more</p><p><a href="https://calendly.com/lactationhelp77" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Consultations</a></p><p><a href="www.babywhisperernicki.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Website</a></p><p><a href="www.babywhisperernicki.com/register" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Virtual Events</a></p><p>Find everything <a href="https://linktr.ee/babywhisperer77" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">HERE</a></p>
