Why it Matters - Every drop counts

Testing your breast milk helps you understand what you’re passing on to your little one and helps you make informed decisions about your diet. When you know better, you feel better and allow for the assurance that your baby is cared for.

Address Allergies and Sensitivities

Your breastmilk holds important clues to your baby’s comfort. If your baby is showing signs like skin irritation, digestive troubles, gas, or fussiness, breastmilk testing can help uncover possible sensitivities or allergens. With this knowledge, you can make thoughtful, gentle adjustments to your diet that may ease your baby’s symptoms.

Track your Progress, Nourish with Confidence

Just like you celebrate your baby’s milestones – first smiles, first words, first steps – you deserve to celebrate your progress and the amazing journey you’re on. Your breastmilk is dynamic and shifts to adapt to your body, diet, and lifestyle. Seeing how your milk grows strong with you is a powerful reminder of the care you’re putting in. We recommend testing every 6-8 weeks to help meet your changing baby’s needs. It’s not just tracking data, it’s tracking love.
