As-salaamu alaykum, I'm Latonia: nurse, IBCLC, and mother of six
I started Suckled Sunnah in 2012 to revive the sunnah of breastfeeding in our ummah. Since then I’ve become a board-certified lactation consultant, supported thousands of families in top hospitals from Illinois to Texas, and written a book. Islam honored breastfeeding 1400 years before modern medicine caught up; I’m here to help you claim that legacy.
