Tanya Tringali is the host of Motherwit Maternity and the Motherwit Podcast– but she wasn’t a perinatal provider powerhouse 20 years ago when her daughter was born and she was 20 years ago and she experienced systemic inequities while giving birth. She was in school determined to change those inequities close to the towers on 9/11. She could not figure out where her baby was under the care of a close friend. This changed the course of her breastfeeding journey.

On this episode you will hear Tanya discuss:

• The breastfeeding information she did and did not receive prenatally
• Cracked nipples
• Pumping starting 6 weeks postpartum once she returned to work
• Low Supply with the pump (and her reflections about why this was– now over 20 years later)
• Lack of Support for all during birth and postpartum
• Systemic failures that impact families and practitioners
• Trying to maintain Milk Supply during a tragedy
