Welcome to Our Data Outreach Initiative!
Lilu is on a mission to make postpartum care more comfortable, efficient, and pain-free for new moms.
We understand the challenges of breastfeeding and pumping, and we are on a mission to transform this experience for mothers everywhere.
Our Research Goals
Lilu has been funded by the National Science Foundation to conduct groundbreaking research on the factors that influence breast milk expression.
- Advanced Predictive Algorithms: Developing algorithms combined with wearable sensors to provide personalized forecasts of breast milk production for new moms.
- Early Detection: Identifying early signs of nursing obstacles such as clogged ducts or mastitis.
- Adaptation to Lifestyle Changes: Adjusting for factors like stress, travel, and transitioning back to work.
Why we Need your Help
To achieve these ambitious goals, we need to gather breastfeeding and pumping data logs, along with basic information about the mother and child. Currently, there are no public datasets that provide this critical information, but we know that many moms use mobile apps or other methods to track their pumping and feeding routines.
By sharing your data and experiences, you can play a vital role in advancing breast health and lactation research. Your contribution will help us develop technologies that offer real-time insights and personalized support to future moms.
Share your data, share your story, and help us build a brighter future for all mothers. Earn up to $30.
What We Need:
- Your breastfeeding and pumping logs
