Feeding, Sleep and Formula: An Interview with Infant Feeding Tech Mallory aka @theformulamom Nov 02, 2021

Show notes

Today on Sleep Cues we are joined by Mallory aka @theformulamom who just four years ago found herself like many other parents... overwhelmed, frustrated, disappointed, and full of guilt and stress about formula feeding. Mallory struggled to figure out her daughter's symptoms and digestive issues and additionally could not find any high-quality information to help.
After diving into all the research, and figuring it all out for her and her daughter, Mallory set out to change how we support new moms in making their feeding decisions. She became a Certified Infant Feeding Technician. And started helping moms realize these truths:
1. You can make an informed, confident feeding decision that makes everyone healthy and happy (your baby AND you!)
2. It is possible for you to feel GOOD about formula feeding-- without stress, guilt, or shame.

In this episode we discuss:
- Myth busting formula feeding
- Parenting attachment
- Navigating feeding options and challenges parents face
- Thoughts on "fed is best"
This episode is presented by our partner Ry & Pen - they wanted make the world a better place and decided that making great clothes for babies and children could help us do just that. Use code HAPPYSLEEP at checkout to receive 20% off at ryandpen.com and get great sleep started!
