Love this! Mamas, have you tried these?

In celebration of Mother's Day, we've partnered with Mamava to provide choices for moms on the go. Starting today, you can find four pumping & nursing pods in JFK, Newark and LaGuardia airports! We know that traveling mamas sacrifice a lot, and travel can be difficult. These pods are designed to be an oasis for moms who would prefer to pump, nurse or feed in a clean, quiet environment: http://7gen.us/1H1M1RV

So humbled by my amazing clients! On the first birthday of a past client's sweet baby I received the most awesome testimonial!
"Ashley was an amazing support during the birth of our 3rd child. He was a scheduled c-section and fortunately we were able to have Ashley in the OR with us. She was especially helpful right after the baby was born. When the nurses took our son to be weighed and checked my husband followed him and Ashley sat with me and held my hand. She was a great calming presence for me. In the following days she came to visit, checked on me and baby, offered moral support as well as really helpful lactation guidance. Even with a third baby I still needed it. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone seeking pre and post natal birth support." -Sarah

Here is a clip of a baby who is transferring milk effectively and getting what they need. See the difference from the first video?

Great video showing a baby that is actually NOT "drinking" or transferring much milk at all. Sometimes the latch looks good but unless you hear swallows and see longer swallows baby is not getting what they need. See my next post for a great example:)
