BREASTFEEDING SUPPORT AND ADVICE



REASTFEEDING SUPPORT

I am a fan of "breastfeeding" or "nursing" - even an advocate perhaps. Breast feeding is not always an easy option to follow, but it is most often the most rewarding, enjoyable and best-suited for your baby. Breastmilk is not referred to as "liquid gold" for nothing - it is gold for your baby's tummy, taste buds, brain, and for your wallet too! It is the most natural feed for you baby.

BREAST-FEEDING TIPS FOR NURSING MOMS

1. Prepare while pregnant - use a good, reputable "nipple cream" whilst pregnant to get your nipples ready for feeding

2. Don't put it out - breastfeed shortly after giving birth - (apparently this helps reduce chances of baby getting yellow - jaundice that is!)

3. When it comes to nursing or breast-feeding, the law of supply and demand applies. The more you feed, the more your body produces! Keep at it mommy!

4. Join a breastfeeding support group before you give up and of course

5. Talk to breastmilk champions like myself!
