Why I Don’t Recommend Buying Lactation Guides from Content Creators

When you’re desperate for breastfeeding or pumping help, a $7 downloadable guide can sound like a lifesaver.

But here’s the truth: many of these guides are…

• AI-written without review
• Not fact-checked by a lactation professional
• Outdated, unsafe, or outside the creator’s scope of care
  

And while I believe most creators truly want to help, if they’re not a CLC (Certified Lactation Counselor) or IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant), they shouldn’t be teaching you how to pump or how to “triple your supply.” You can read my blog breaking down the difference here.

That’s where professional training and accountability matter.

But Wait…Don’t You Sell Guides?

Yep, I do! But none of my guides contain lactation advice. I stay firmly in my lane as a content creator, focusing on tools and resources that make your exclusive pumping life easier.

Freebie Example: Pumping Email Template

Here’s a snippet from my Back-to-Work Guide you can copy/paste today:

Subject: Pumping Breaks Upon Return

Hi [Name],

I wanted to loop you in that I’ll be continuing to express breast milk while working, and plan to take a time block of [X] minutes, every [X] hours. I’ll schedule them on my calendar to minimize disruption and stay as efficient as possible.

This is a boundary I could really use your partnership on maintaining while I continue on this journey. Please let me know if there are any logistics we should align on before I return.

Thanks so much,
[Your Name]
