Feeding a baby can feel like one of the most emotional and overwhelming parts of early motherhood. Between social media, conflicting advice, and the pressure to “do it right,” many moms are left feeling exhausted, guilty, and unsure of themselves. In today’s episode, I’m joined by Amber Ginn, board-certified lactation consultant, certified doula, and founder of The Latchlink. Amber became a mom at just 15 years old and now supports families across the country through her telehealth lactation practice. Her approach is practical, compassionate, and refreshingly judgment-free. We talk about the pressure moms feel around breastfeeding and feeding choices, the barriers many families face when trying to access support, and how mothers can make decisions that work for their unique families without guilt or perfectionism. This episode is full of reassurance, encouragement, and honest conversation for any mom who has ever questioned whether she’s doing enough. In this episode, we discuss: Amber’s journey into motherhood at 15 The emotional weight of feeding decisions Why moms feel pressure to feed “perfectly” Breastfeeding expectations vs. reality Supporting teen and young mothers Access and insurance barriers in lactation care How to find feeding solutions that fit your real life Letting go of guilt and trusting yourself as a mom Connect with Amber: Website - The Latchlink - https://get.thelatchlink.com/consult-ga Instagram: @thelatchlink - https://www.instagram.com/thelatchlink 📺 Watch the episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOpw5ui4uxJHx0tLFVtpnfSkpObfc4d-K You can find Katie at: website: burntpancakes.com YouTube: @burnt.pancakes Instagram: @burntpancakeswithkatie Email: katie@burntpancakes.com 🚽 Did you know Katie is also a Certified Potty Trainer? 🚽 ☎️ Schedule a 1:1 chat today: Schedule Here 💻 Digital Potty Training Course HERE 📖 Potty Training E-Book HERE 🆓 FREE potty training resources HERE Instagram: @itspottytime Tiktok: @itspottytime_ Some episodes include affiliate links at no cost to you.
