Benefits of Breastfeeding

My day typically starts with being drooled on from baby kisses, laughter & scratches. After spending time reading or watching her favorite educational show, our rising routine consists of diaper changing & feeding time. I wanted to share this raw visual because I’m a

mathor & realistically I’m not going to be dolled up or aesthetically pleasing. I encourage other women to embrace their flawlessly & naturally beautiful selves. There are soooo many benefits to breastfeeding. Not only is it the most ideal way of feeding your baby, there

are also benefits for mama too. Breastmilk promotes infant wellness due to the presence of antibodies in breastmilk which makes it a natural form of immunization. Breastmilk is easily digestible, custom made for your baby every moment, filled with antibodies to protect against

infection, creates skin to skin contact which is an intimate way to bond with your baby, & so much more. Not only does breastfeeding save money, it’s great for the environment & ALWAYS READY AND AVAILABLE!! Breastfeeding helps mama’s uterus return to its normal size faster,

contributes to postpartum weight loss, regulates hormones & can be emotionally grounding which can help prevent postpartum blues. I’ve been exclusively breastfeeding for 6 months now. Nova and I love our time. She loves to tap me on my face or slap my breast haha.

She’s grown so much & I know it’s because she has access to this liquid life force. Do you plan on breastfeeding your baby? Have you breastfed your children?
