Struggling to Get Your Baby Back to Breast? Feeling Like You’ve Tried Everything Without Relief?

You are not alone—and this episode is proof that healing your breastfeeding journey is possible, even when it feels like all hope is lost.

Kaylyn lives on a remote island in Alaska, where she gave birth to her baby girl in February. Like so many new moms, she ran into a wall of feeding challenges: cracked nipples, toe-curling pain, cluster feeding, and constant pumping just to keep her supply up.

She tried to push through. But it wasn’t until she reached out for virtual breastfeeding support that everything started to shift.

In this episode, Kaylyn shares:

• How she navigated brutal pain and exhaustion

• Why pumping and formula felt like both a lifeline and a trap

• What finally helped her get her baby back to breast

• And how virtual consults, nipple shields, and chiropractic care changed everything

If you’re looking for real solutions to your breastfeeding struggles—and wondering if it's too late to fix things—Kaylyn’s story will give you hope, practical insight, and a reminder that you don’t need to do this alone.
