"When formula-using parents and breastfeeding parents are pitted against each other in the realm of the environment, I yearn to point to the hands that build the arena of our conflict to begin with."

Holy shit. If #PubMed truly is down for good, or is about to go down. First direct, immediate, material effect on my (very privileged) life - I use #LactMed all the time to help lactating mothers and parents make decisions about meds and feeding. What a fucking waste. #data #NIH #science #medicine #breastfeeding

Illustrative example of #publichealth -related #inequalities - how #breastfeeding rates vary by socioeconomic/-demographic factors in the UK.
Personal take - the neonatal community need to be aware and take this into account, but (IMHO) this boils down political strategies how to overcome societal gaps.
And of course, this is not UK-specific,(again IMHO) results are probably generalizable to most context (Sweden, for sure)

Apparently our salt grinder is putting microplastics in our food?! I thought it was fine but @nullagent has concerns and I do try to be really careful, especially while breastfeeding.

Anyway we've got a wishlist for household items & other things we need... if you're feeling generous we'd be grateful for gifts! Boosts help too!

My wife @MichaelaKHulse is new to Mastodon.nz, just introducing her to it since she wants to leave F*cebook.

She’s wondering how to use the platform, please help her by suggesting hashtags she may be into following on the subject of #breastfeeding, #parenting, #childcare, #permaculture, #gardening, #TeReoMāori or anything else with that kinda vibe.

(Or people who post about these kind of things)

2024 was a year of finding balance.
...balance between #carework and personal development.

What are my major learnings?

→ Some of the barriers are just in our heads. I thought I would never be able to do ANYTHING while #breastfeeding. I was wrong. The way how we think about our challenges determines how we tackle them.

→ You and only you can define the right balance. What feels right today may be completely out of balance tomorrow. You can always adjust.
