| Article Title :: Weaning |
| |
| Some babies go for solids in a big way right from the start, but others are more reluctant. A baby's first taste of solid food should be exactly that, just a taste, so don't be concerned that your little one isn't chomping through three bowls of baby food a day at the beginning. First foods should be in addition to the milk the baby normally has, not a replacement.The World Health Organisation recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months to avoid potential allergies, excema and asthma. All babies are different though and there are a few signs that a baby is ready for solids.

| Article Title :: Solid Poo |
| |
| If you had told me this time last year that I would find nappies and poo fascinating, I would have peered at you over my huge bloated pregnant stomach and snorted in disdain. Now I have a child who is just about to learn to crawl into things he shouldn't, I am almost nostalgic for his breastmilk-only poos. They came in a variety of colours, from orange through to brown with the occasional green thrown in for good measure. They rarely smelled bad and in my maddest, sleep deprived moments I entertained notions of Dulux colour-matching some of the prettier shades. I was used to the occasional leaking wrap and it was easy to wipe his bum with a bit of damp cotton wool.Then came solids (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Breastfeeding in Public |
| |
| I was so nervous when I breastfed in public for the first time. I quietly asked the manager of the café if it would be ok, and settled down into a dingy corner with my tiny baby, mums milk for him and tea and cake for me. At least a month before I got this brave I was casing places for breastfeeding suitability. Looking round I started to see something I never had before, loads of women breastfeed in public and no one notices. When I started to look for them I saw women breastfeeding in cafes, on park benches, at bus stops, in the back of parked cars and even on an escalator. Feeling like I had hundreds of kindred spirits out there I was able to breastfeed when ever my baby wanted it wi (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Breast Club |
| |
| The first rule of Breast Club is that you don’t talk about Breast Club. Books, midwives, health visitors, friends, relatives and people you meet in the street cannot prepare you for the nightmare that can be breastfeeding. I have been lucky, no mastitis, no cracked nipples and loads of milk but it’s still been a far cry from the pictures of contented mother and baby that grace breastfeeding literature. It wasn’t the pain so much as the feeling that I was a milk machine, a slave to a small screaming thing who would be obeyed by my leaking breasts if not willingly by the rest of my body. Small thing feeds on demand, and he is very demanding.When he was 6 weeks old he had a grow (read full article) |

| Article Title :: The Benefits of Breastfeeding and Good Times... |
| |
| Why Breastfeed? In my opinion breastfeeding has made
my daughters healthier and myself healthier. I gained
70 pounds when I was pregnant with each of my daughters and after breastfeeding in just the first 3 months I had lost 40 pounds. Now maybe it is just they way my body works but I truly think it had a lot to do with breastfeeding. Now don't get me wrong I didn't have a flat tummy by no means but at least I could start fitting in my old clothes again. Upon my research and asking my physicians and my daughters doctors I've complied a list of reasons why it is best. I am not a doctor - just a mom interested in the benefits of nursing opposed to formula feeding.
