I had to pull this quote because it is
e v e r y t h i n g.
In the video, Hannah tells a 💔 story of having to leave her 5 month-old nursling to pursue higher ed. How she’d cry in the shower as her milk ran down the drain.
Breastfeeding experiences are truly universal.

A tweet from Aubrey Hirsch leading to her Substack article titled “breastfeeding isn’t free“ The tweet reads: In honor of World Breastfeeding Week, this comic about the many, many coats of breastfeeding is your reminder that BREASTFEEDING IS LABOR!
#PublicHealth professionals: The top breastfeeding tweet on Bluesky this week centers Western/rich/white narratives that breastfeeding is a lifestyle choice (vs. a health equity issue) and that breastfeeding is inherently difficult.
We have much work to do.

Shout out to Windsor Women's Centre this #WorldBreastfeedingWeek2025 for their successful 2023 campaign for Translink to join the Breast- feeding Welcome Scheme. Now women can feel more supported to breast- feed when out and about on buses and trains. #MasMatter

alpacalypse-llama • 4d If the newborn's stomach is initially colonized by the vaginal bacteria during birth which allow for fully digesting the breastmilk, how much difficulty do babies born by c-section have in digesting it? I assume their stomachs are colonized by the bacteria in the milk but lacking the specific ones to digest the special oligosaccerides (might have butchered that spelling)? 14 upvotes
scotty_the_newt • 4d Elisabeth Anderson Sierra holds the world record for breast milk donations. Because of her hyperlactation syndrome she produces multiple liters of milk per day. Is the milk from somebody like that naturally "watered down" or do the recipients of her milk receive as much nutrition as from other womans donations? 11 upvotes
hiphiphf • 4d Are there any evidence-based strategies (e.g., foods, behaviors) for boosting milk supply (beyond the obvious ones of eating enough, staying hydrated, sleep)? Are all the supplements on the market claiming they can help with this just...bullshi*t? I'm currently nursing my 8M old, but have unfortunately begun to see a decrease in my supply only when pumping (which I have to do during the day while she's at daycare and I'm at work). I'm hoping to make it to at least a year. 9 upvotes
Last week, several breastfeeding, lactation, and human milk experts did an "Ask Me Anything" session on Reddit ahead of #WorldBreastfeedingWeek2025. Here are the top 3 most upvoted questions we got. 👇
Without peeking at the thread, how would YOU answer them?

A “word cloud” of stylized emojis, each a different color. An icon similar to the universal sign for breastfeeding is center top. The alt text for the image is included in the screenshot, and it includes a list of emojis that I am u able to copy and paste here. All you really need to know is that the 🤱 is sixth from the top. Hourly Breezing 1.0.0 @hourlybreezing.ntw.app 2025-08-05, 09:00:00 - 09:59:59 UTC Emoji Cloud; its emojis (sorted by weighted frequency, descending)
The #breastfeeding emoji was the 6th most frequently used emoji on BlueSky between 5 and 6 am Eastern this morning.
Can we snatch the #1 spot??

Reminder that, in addition to being acknowledged to varying degrees as a human right and reproductive right, breastfeeding is also a child right covered by the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child ⚖️
