Lactation Consultant and Author of THIS BOOK SUCKS, feeding your baby shouldn't (TBS)
After her son was born and admitted into the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and experiencing feeding challenges, she decided to become a registered nurse and an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant to help other families in ways that she was helped, and especially in the ways that she was not supported. "It's such an honor to be able to hold space for families during such a sensitive and intimate time. " She has served over twenty-five hundred families so far in her career. "I love educating, empowering and supporting families during their unique feeding journey. There are many ways to feed your baby and no wrong way to do it." With her experience, passion and creativity, Lori wrote a book with her long-time friend, Ashley Bradley (as the illustrator)! Check it out! "THIS BOOK SUCKS, feeding your baby shouldn't."

The #1 question all families have, right after birth - is how do I feed the baby?

that is clear, fun, and inclusive. We take away the stress of feeding your baby by delivering evidence-based research with visually instructive and ‘laugh out loud’ art. TBS will guide the reader on how to latch and successfully feed the baby without judgement.
