As part of our bereaved donor program, we have a scrapbook next to Carmen’s Trees filled with memories and photos of little lives lost but never forgotten. #MMBNTdonor Travishia recently added her little one, Tahvia’s page to this book, along with her story, photos, and a note for their little angel.
International Board-Certified Lactation Consultants keep new families happier and healthier by providing breastfeeding education and support. Kristina, a lactation consultant at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas, shares her personal breastfeeding story below.

Once observed only in August, National Breastfeeding Month now extends into September. Latina/x Breastfeeding Week begins the first Tuesday following Labor Day. This year’s theme, “Reclaiming Culture Through Lactation”, celebrates breastfeeding among the diverse cultures of Latino communities.
September also marks the beginning of NICU Awareness Month. With a purpose to raise awareness and build a strong and supportive community, this month acknowledges the babies, families and medical professionals in the NICU.
Today we are featuring Paola’s story which encompasses a long NICU journey, breastfeeding challenges and her determination to help other families with a hospitalized infant.
