infant feeding therapy & lactation support
helping babies feed more comfortably— whether breast or bottle
struggling with feeding? get the right support.
Whether you're facing latch issues, bottle refusal, tongue-tie concerns, or slow weight gain, we can help. At humbled by motherhood, we take a holistic, evidence-informed approach to infant feeding therapy and lactation support, addressing both oral function and maternal concerns to create a customized feeding plan that works for your family.
how we can help with your feeding concerns
infant feeding therapy
✔️ functional feeding assessments – identify why your baby is struggling and create a plan for improvement
✔️ oral motor therapy – strengthen muscles for more effective sucking, swallowing, and coordination
✔️ bottle feeding support – help with bottle refusal, excessive air intake, leaking, or long feed times
✔️ starting solids & texture transitions – guidance on moving from milk to solids at the right time
lactation support
✔️ pain-free latch support – resolve nipple pain, shallow latch, clicking, or poor milk transfer using a whole-body approach
✔️ low milk supply – increase supply, manage supplementation, or transition back to exclusive use of breastmilk (if desired)
✔️ returning to work & pumping plans – learn how to maintain milk supply using a customized pumping plan
✔️ weaning support – personalized guidance for stopping breastfeeding (when ready!)
our specialty? pre & post frenotomy (tongue/lip tie) support
A tongue-tie release (frenotomy) is not a quick fix. While some babies improve right away, most need more support:
✔️ before release – bodywork and functional movement to prepare your baby’s muscles for better function after the procedure
✔️ after release – more bodywork and functional movement in addition to retraining the tongue muscles for optimal feeding, avoiding reattachment, and supporting healing
❓ not sure if your baby needs a release? – get a full functional assessment before making a decision!
Whether you decide to pursue a frenectomy or not, we can help support to improve feeding and overall development
