You always hear about the moms who “don’t make enough milk”… but can we talk about the moms with an oversupply for a second?
Because nobody warns you about that struggle.
The letdowns that feel like a fire hydrant.
The baby choking, pulling off, getting sprayed in the face.
The soaking-through-three-shirts-a-day kind of chaos.
And then there’s the part no one glamorizes:
The bottles.
The pumps.
The CONSTANT cycle of washing parts, sanitizing, drying, and starting all over again.
The guilt of wanting to nurse but having to resort to bottles because your letdown is just too powerful for your tiny newborn to handle.
Oversupply isn’t a flex.
It’s exhausting.
It’s painful.
It’s overwhelming.
And moms who deal with it deserve the same compassion, support, and understanding as every other breastfeeding journey.
To the oversupply mamas… I see you.
Drenched, tired, juggling pump parts and burp cloths like it’s an Olympic sport.
You’re doing amazing even if it doesn’t feel like it.
