Feel Ready, not Overwhelmed

You've read all the baby books. You've toured the nursery aisle a dozen times. But when it comes to feeding — breastfeeding, pumping, bottles, all of it — most parents feel like they're walking in blind.

This free checklist walks you through exactly what to know, gather, and think about before your baby arrives, so the first few weeks feel a little less like guesswork and a lot more like you've got this.

Sign up and you'll get the checklist right away, plus a spot on my newsletter — where I keep sharing practical feeding tips, honest answers, and local North Texas support all the way through weaning. One signup, ongoing support.

What's inside the checklist

• What to actually pack vs. skip in your hospital bag

• Questions to ask your pediatrician and OB before day one

• The 5 signs a feeding issue needs professional eyes — and which ones are totally normal

• A simple prep list so pumping and bottle-feeding aren't a scramble later

• Straight talk from an IBCLC, not the internet rabbit hole

What you'll get after that

• Practical feeding tips you can use that week, not just theory

• First look at new classes, workshops, and course openings

• Occasional local resources for Fort Worth, Weatherford, and Parker County families

• Zero pressure, zero spam — just useful, steady support
