Breastfeeding


Yeah, it's time to talk about breastfeeding, one of my obsessions. It's very important to breastfeed. Many people don't realize how big of a difference it makes to breastfeed your baby, but research shows that not breastfeeding can cause an increased risk of ear infections, diarrhea, upper respiratory infections, and even childhood cancer. Those are just a few. Don't take my word for it; have a look

You can check those facts and look for sources, but what it all boils down to is that formula is dangerous for babies. Please, don't put your babies at risk for these kinds of things. If you love your baby, breastfeed, and if it's not working right, do a little research, or hire a lactation consultant, hey, you might meet me, since that is my desired plan in life.

You may wonder why I'm saying that formula is dangerous instead of that breastmilk is helpful. Well,there's a good reason: breastfeeding is natural, it's normal, and it's expected out of every mother. So, the natural state of things is the immunities in breastmilk, while the lacktherof, is subnormal, inadequate and dangerous. I'm sure there will be more installments on breastfeeding to come soon, but for now, everyone, please think about it, if you ever intend to have children
