Latching With Laura

10/21/2026

Today’s grad 🎓

Sweet Kait Schwan came to my office with this little chunky boy 5 days following delivery with difficulty latching, using ni**le shield and engorgement.

We identified body tension, scheduled a timely tongue + lip tie release, and helped to manage oversupply.

It has been an absolute JOY to be a part of this sweet families feeding journey. 🤍 I’m so very thankful for the trust to be their IBCLC.

I’m so proud of you Kait + Stets! 🫶🏼

Hi friends!
I will be out of office starting today (10/13) through Sunday (10/18) for a much needed vacation! 😍

During this time, I will not be responding to texts, emails, calls, etc unless we have otherwise scheduled.

Please be patient in awaiting for responses until Monday the 19th. 🤍

I cannot thank you enough for allowing me to be part of your family feeding journeys, and I look forward to coming back recharged to help you! 🔋

See you soon! 🫶🏼

Another grad 🎓

You wouldn’t believe me if I told you that Heather Brooke Wright initially walked into my office, struggling to latch her baby, with low supply, and poor transfer after seeing her today. 🩷

Ni**le shield: gone
Poor transfer: outta here
Low supply: fixed

Working through oral strengthening exercises, supporting weight gain while simultaneously increasing supply, and finding what worked for her + her family was all it took 😉

(Oh, and some game changing body work with our people at Dr. Collin & Kara Walding | Prenatal & Pediatric | 📍Prosper, TX for one sided preference, jaw tension, and recessed chin work)

Thank you for allowing me to be a small part in your feeding journey! 🫶🏼

Trying not to cry over this graduation moment 🎓

Taylor Hale Abney came to me as a client with the wonderful TexasFamilyBirth&Wellness center 🤍 Prenatally we sat our goals for what we wanted this journey to look like for this baby. Following a history of difficult feeding stories with those cutie older siblings, we hoped to make it a new journey.

Then reality set in.. NICU admission, slow weight gain, fatigue at breast, low tone, tension. BUT. Taylor worked diligently.

Oral exercises that changed depending on sweet Sadie’s needs that session ✅ bottle feeding and pumping to protect supply + support weight gain ✅ body work ✅ speech therapy eval ✅

Sadie graduates today with an established beautiful growth curve, and transferring THREEEEEEE ounces consistently. 🥹🥳

I am SO proud of this sweet family, and SO thankful to work along side of them in their journey. (Big sister helped with weights 🩷)

Also, a big shout out to Dr. Amber Galipp + Hannah Jefferson | Frisco Speech Therapy for the team work on getting this family feeding efficiently.

I need to be honest and make a hard post that’s opposite of my usual fun things.

Please note that this is NOT directed towards any one person. This is the result of a boundary that I need to set to protect my personal time, and my business.

Moving forward, if I have not seen you within the last month, I will not be answering questions or assisting with a care plan without reassessing you and/or baby.

I truly try my best to go above and beyond for my clients. With that being said, my down time and my family time is just as important.

You deserve a detailed + personalized care plan created by a professional, and I’m more than happy to provide that to you.

I offer services from prenatal through weaning, including: introductions of solids, teething, returning to work, and just about everything in between.

I have worked SO hard to build my practice to where it is now, but I also have to prevent burnout and protect my peace simultaneously.

I am truly honored to be a part of each of your feeding stories + look forward to continuing that. 🩷
