Even though there’s only a small amount (think teaspoons, not ounces), it’s exactly what your newborn needs in those first few days. Babies aren’t born starving—their tummies are tiny, tiny, tiny and colostrum is perfectly designed to fuel them right from the start.

Hey mamas (and papas!)—this is one of those topics that comes up a LOT: breastfeeding vs. formula feeding. And if you’ve ever felt judged, overwhelmed, or unsure, you are not alone.

Here’s the deal: breast milk is amazing. It’s packed with nutrients, antibodies, and it’s free. But let’s also be real—breastfeeding isn’t always easy or even possible. Some of us struggle with supply, latch issues, pain, exhaustion, or just don’t want to breastfeed. And guess what? That’s okay.

Formula is safe, nutritious, and some families find it’s the best option for their baby and their mental health. Choosing formula doesn’t mean you love your baby any less or that you’re missing out. It means you’re feeding your child in the way that works best for your family.
