Nutritional Support for Postpartum Moms with Jeanne Reilly, RD, from I Am Nurtured 42:39

We all know the nutrients baby’s get from breastmilk or baby formula are crucial for the wellbeing of our baby. But what about nutrition for the postpartum mom? Today I am interviewing Jeanne Reilly, a registered dietitian, the mom of two, and the co-founder of I Am Nurtured Prenatal and Postnatal vitamins. Were you like me in pregnancy? All my plans for a “real food pregnancy” were thrown out the window. I could barely handle my prenatal gummy. I preferred convenience food during my postpartum period and found myself eating lots of noodle packs from Costco because they were super easy. I had big hormonal shifts postpartum and didn’t feel like myself for a long time. We spend 40 weeks growing a baby. That means our sweet little babies were “sharing” our nutrients. I invited Jeanne on to talk about how to nourish ourselves during the postpartum period and to give tips when we have no energy, but desire to eat a bit healthier. This episode is for breastfeeding and formula-feeding moms!

Combining breastmilk and formula AKA mixed feeding AKA combo-feeding is a very common way to feed a baby, yet it not often talked about as a way to feed babies.

I wanted to learn as much as I could about combining both and teach parents so they felt less alone if their baby needed or they desired to use formula. In this episode, I teach about what combo-feeding is, I speak about the pros and cons of combo-feeding and I talk about how combo-feeding played a part in both of my baby’s life Combo-feeding, when done correctly, can help prolong a breastfeeding journey and may help decrease anxiety. It may require some guidance.
