Breastfeeding is a topic that resonates with many - expectant mothers, new moms, and even those who have been through the journey before. It's an experience filled with joy but not without its challenges. In this interview, we'll explore some key insights from breastfeeding expert Amy Kanzillo as she shares her wisdom on navigating the complex world of lactation. Here are some key takeaways:
1. Embrace your community - Facebook groups or local meetups provide support networks filled with information.
2. Prepare ahead of time – just as athletes train before their big day, expecting moms should begin preparations for breastfeeding months prior.
3. Expect some hiccups along the way – despite careful planning, unexpected issues may arise which is completely normal!
4. Be aware of medication effects on breastfeeding - resources such as Dr Thomas Hale’s book categorize drugs by levels so you can check potential impacts on nursing.
5. Maintain a balanced diet - barring alcohol/drugs, no food restrictions exist unless there's an immediate family history of allergies (like peanut allergy).
6. Milk supply isn't solely reliant on food intake – moving milk through frequent feedings or implementing pumping plans often helps increase supply more effectively.
.
ACTION PLAN
1. Support system: Surround yourself with supportive people who understand the importance of breastfeeding & can offer emotional support or help.
2. Reliable resources: Seek out credible sources of information on breastfeeding such as lactation consultants, healthcare providers, or reputable online platforms.
3. Regular check-ups: Keep up with regular pediatrician visits to monitor your baby’s growth and development and ensure they are getting enough nutrition from breastfeeding.
4. Mindset matters: Approach breastfeeding with an open mind knowing that it may not always be easy but it's worth persevering through challenges for the benefits it offers mom & baby.
5. Healthy diet: Maintain a balanced diet without strict food restrictions unless there is an immediate family history of allergies (like peanut allergy).
6. Increase milk supply naturally by feeding more often or implementing a pumping plan rather than relying solely on certain foods believed to boost supply.

In today's episode of Parenting is Easy, Said No One Ever, we have a conversation with Daniel Dluzneski, a retired Secret Service agent who works on ensuring children's safety in schools. With his wealth of experience from protecting presidents to safeguarding classrooms, Dan offers invaluable insights into the current state of school safety.
Key Takeaways:
1. The Need for Proactive Engagement: Dan emphasizes the importance of interacting directly with principals, administrators, and parents to understand their concerns about school safety first-hand.
2. Safety vs Curriculum Grades: Amidst external pressures such as the pandemic aftermath and calls for defunding police departments, there is often an imbalance between focusing on improving curriculum grades and maintaining school safety.
3. Parental Complacency: Parents need to acknowledge that threats can exist everywhere and should always be prepared for potential dangers at their child’s school – regardless of its type or location.
4. Teacher Preparedness: Teachers control classrooms and must thoroughly understand lockdown procedures due to constantly emerging new safety measures across the country.
5. Advocacy For Lockdown Policies: Parents need to advocate for strict lockdown policies during crises in schools by voicing concerns backed by expert opinions through platforms like PTA or student advisory councils.
CALL TO ACTION
1. Engage in proactive safety measures: Following the interviewee's advice, take a proactive approach to child safety both at home and school. This could involve learning about potential risks, setting rules for online behavior, or installing appropriate safety equipment.
2. Explore alternative discipline methods: Drawing from the anecdote shared by the person interviewed, consider exploring non-physical forms of discipline when dealing with children's behavioral issues.
3. Learn from experts in the field: Look up Michael Dorn and Ken Trump who are mentioned as mentors by the interviewee - they lead organizations dedicated to school safety research and have websites filled with useful resources.
4. Be observant of your child’s activities: Echoing the interviewee’s wish to be a fly on the wall, strive to understand your child better by observing their behaviors, interests, and interactions without invading their privacy too much.
5. Collaborate effectively: The importance of collaboration underlined by this professional suggests that working together with o

Determined to change, Timothy sought serious help and embarked on a path of recovery. Now, he uses his experiences and personal growth to inspire others who are battling similar demons, providing them with hope and a roadmap to redemption.
