AAP Now Recommends Breastfeeding Until 2 | The Needless Parent Shaming Continues

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recently came out with a new breastfeeding guidelines in July 2022, recommending breastfeeding to extend to 2 years and beyond if that is what the mother and child prefer. The entire article repeats the importance of breastfeeding over and over, and is so incredibly tone deaf to the parents of the world today, and the current situation where there are laws actively refusing giving breastfeeding parents time to pump at work, and feeling obligated to do so during a formula shortage. I have big feelings on the topic of breastfeeding and its impact on maternal health in case you can't tell, and we'll be covering that, today.

I started this channel because I wanted other working moms, nurses, nurse practitioner students, nursing students, and whoever else to know that you CAN do school, life and work! I'd love to hear your stories of how you combine your personal interests with your family life! You are doing great things, and I hope you remember that!

As Covid Vaccine mandates become more popular, I have a few thoughts as to what is ethically the right move here. Covid vaccination decreases spread of illness, and will decrease likelihood of transmission to patients. However the vaccine mandate may cause more nurses to leave already short staffed units, making working conditions more unsafe. And costing more lives in the end.
