BSTARS

Hello Sis.

It is with the heaviest of hearts and barely the breath to speak the words that we share the sorrowful news that Anna Pyles, lovingly known as “Mama BSTARS,” has passed away.

Our hearts are broken, but we find comfort in knowing that her love, energy, and support will live on through us, and that her legacy will continue to shine in everything she touched.

Please keep us lifted in prayer always, but especially during this super difficult time.

The celebration of her life information will be shared soon.

What an honor!

Tiana E.H. Pyles, MHA, CLC, grew up in a family where breastfeeding was tradition—passed down through three generations of mothers before her. Now a proud mother of four, Tiana has spent her career turning that inherited sense of strength and heritage into work that reaches far beyond her own household. ♥️ Learn more about our at cheerequity.org/champions

Hey Sis! Follow us on IG, we're trying to reach a goal!

Goals!

Breast milk is the ideal first food for a baby.

It's safe, clean and contains antibodies which protect against dangerous illnesses.
☑️ Start within 1 hour after birth
☑️ Breastfeed exclusively for the first 6 months
☑️ Continue alongside healthy family foods until the baby is at least 2 years old

Happy World Breastfeeding Week!

This chart shows the average amount of breast milk babies drink per day.

Every baby eats a little differently, but here’s a simple look at the average amount of breast milk babies drink during their first year.

In the first few weeks, babies slowly increase how much they eat in a day.

By about 3–6 months, most babies will plateau meaning they drink about the same amount each day, even though they grow a lot during this time.

(Keep in mind your breast milk is always changing. Even if the volume stays the same, the content of your milk changes to meet your baby’s needs.)

After 6 months, milk intake usually goes down a little as solids become a bigger part of their diet.

💛 This chart shows general average ranges, not exact numbers your baby must follow.
💛 Every baby is different, and their intake can change day to day.
💛 This is not medical advice. Always follow your baby’s hunger cues and talk to your pediatrician or lactation professional if you have questions.

You’re doing an amazing job, mama. 🫶

Happy Father's Day!
