Such a help for a new mom

Erin’s knowledge about feeding a newborn was immensely helpful to me when I was having difficulties in the first few days of my son’s life. She helped me navigate combo feeding and how to choose a formula I was comfortable with. So grateful for her and this podcast is amazing! Take a listen—you won’t regret the time spent.

Realistic and supportive

I love following Erin. She gives realistic and non-judgmental feeding advice. I wish I would have found her when I had my first baby. Seeing someone support combo feeding on social media was so refreshing and exactly what I needed to help calm my feeding anxiety when my twins were born. I combo fed my twins for a year and I am so proud of myself!

Great for keeping new moms feeling calm and confident

Erin does a great job at exploring all options for feeding your child without declaring one as the best. Listening to just the first few episodes made me feel so much calmer and more confident about feeding my 8-month-old daughter.
