Benefits of Breastfeeding

You've loved, nourished, and anxiously awaited your baby for nine months. You've taken care of yourself, eaten nutritiously, and avoided anything that might harm the precious little person in your womb.

When your baby finally arrives, you can continue to give the healthiest start in life — by choosing to breast feed. In fact, breast feeding is among the most important things that you can do to insure your baby's health and promote development.

Ever since mammals first appeared on Earth, breast feeding has been the key to our survival.

No other substance is as time-tested as mother's milk. An amazingly well-designed system, breast feeding confers many advantages, physical and emotional, for both mother and infant, just as nature intended.

Many of these benefits are immediate, others are life-long. For babies, breast milk is the ultimate health food. Breast milk contains the proper proportion of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats for optimal infant growth. Unlike artificial infant formulas, breast milk is composed of living cells packed with antibodies that protect the baby from a wide variety of pathogens. Compared to formula-fed infants, breastfed babies have fewer illnesses, and the illnesses they do get are less severe.

For example, breastfed babies have a lower incidence of gastrointestinal illness, urinary tract infections, respiratory disease, and otitis media (ear infections). Breastfed babies also have a lower incidence of allergies, lower rates of obesity, and a lower incidence of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Rates of juvenile diabetes, Chrohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis are also lower among babies who are breastfed. Breastfed babies show better psychological development, experience fewer learning and behavior problems, and even score higher on IQ tests. In addition, breastfed babies are less likely to develop heart disease, osteoporosis, and cancer later in life.

Because suckling at the breast uses more facial muscles than sucking on a bottle, breast feeding leads to better teeth and jaw development and enhances visual development. Scientific research has already demonstrated an overwhelming number of advantages of breast milk and there are likely many more potential benefits that haven't yet been identified.

In addition to the benefits to your baby, breastfeeding offers many advantages to you as well. Lactation is a natural part of a woman's reproductive cycle, just like menstruation and pregnancy. In the days after your baby's birth, breastfeeding causes the uterus to contract, helping it return to pre-pregnancy size.

Breast feeding utilizes about 500 calories per day and can help you lose those extra pounds gradually and without dieting. Breast feeding exclusively — without supplementing with formula and/or solid foods — often postpones menstruation and the return of fertility for the first six months postpartum. Mothers who choose to breastfed are healthier too.

Studies have shown that women who breastfeed tend to have a reduced risk of breast cancer, uterine and ovarian cancer, and a lessened incidence of osteoporosis later in life. When you nurse your baby, your body produces special hormones, sometimes called "mothering" hormones, that help you to feel calm and relaxed — a special advantage for a new mom coping with the demands of caring for a small infant.

Breastfeeding costs less, is always ready and available, requires no time to prepare or special packaging to produce and creates no waste or pollution.
There are also emotional benefits to nursing your baby. A uniquely intimate act, breastfeeding promotes bonding between mother and child. Those who have never nursed a child may not be able to fully appreciate how special that relationship is.

The feeling of empowerment a woman receives from being able to nourish her baby gives her confidence in her mothering ability. More than just a feeding choice, breastfeeding offers a special time to get to know your baby in the early weeks and months. Nursing is a kind of communication between mother and child, offering lots of skin to skin contact which can deepen the loving connection between you and your baby.

If you plan to return to work, be assured that breastfeeding can continue and may actually simplify your life. Your baby will continue to receive the advantages of breastfeeding and you both can benefit from the time you spend together as a nursing couple. Consider this: infants in childcare are exposed to many more illnesses. Your breastfed baby will have the extra protection that human milk provides.

Even though you may be separated from your baby for a large part of the day, there is still one thing that only you can give: your milk. Nursing is a wonderful way to reconnect with your baby after a long day at work.

Clearly, breastfeeding offers a wide variety of advantages, for the baby, the mother, the family, and even for the environment. Yet, statistics show that many women choose not to breastfeed or quit in the early weeks. Why? Although nursing is one of the most natural things in the world, it doesn’t come naturally to every mother and every baby. Breastfeeding is a learned art. There are many resources that you can use to learn about the basics of breastfeeding before your baby is born. Attend a breastfeeding support group prior to your due date. Talk to other mothers who’ve successfully nursed a baby.

Check your local library or bookstore for books about breastfeeding. If you have further questions, ask your childbirth educator, obstetrician, or pediatrician for a referral to a lactation consultant or check your phone book for the numbers of local breastfeeding support groups. Nearly every woman can breastfeed; it’s possible to breastfeed if you’ve had a cesarean, a preterm delivery, twins or even triplets, or if your baby has special needs. Many women are able to begin breastfeeding quite easily, while others may encounter some difficulties in the beginning. Be persistent about getting help if you need it, and, most importantly, enjoy this special time with your baby.

What To Wear?

Maternity & Nursing Fashions & Accessories

Congratulations on your pregnancy! You’re daydreaming about your baby: “Is it a boy or a girl? Does it matter as long as it is healthy?” But after a while, you realize “Oh my gosh! I’m pregnant! What do I wear?” Fortunately today’s maternity fashions are not all “frock and fru fru.”

Women have really taken a stand and demand to keep in fashion. Today you can look beautiful when you’re pregnant. Your pregnancy is something to be proud of. Go ahead. Show off that belly! Leading maternity designers offer a variety of stunning fabrics including matte jerseys, jersey knits, corduroys, boucles, micro-suedes, lace, satins, silks, and velvets.

Maternity Tops are designed to accentuate your growing figure with stylish patterns and bold colors. Modern maternity clothes are nothing like what our mothers’ wore. With so many choices available, pregnant women can be confident, beautiful, and most of all, comfortable. Bottoms continue to be very fashion forward. Bootleg pants are in vogue along with capri lengths, a newer rolled-up cuff look, as well as the more traditional straight leg style in jeans and twills. Skirts offer a wide variety of hemlines from mini to ankle-length and everything in-between. Waistbands are being hidden while still allowing for function and adjustability. And, it’s not just what’s on the outside that counts.

Sexy Maternity Lingerie is also offering more fabrics and styles for maternity and nursing. Sexy Maternity and sexy nursing bras are made from a blend of cotton and spandex that allows the cup to mold to your breast and support its changing shape all day long. Even maternity underwear is available in the same styles you’ve been accustomed to before your pregnancy from briefs to bikini-cut to maternity thongs. With the variety of colors and patterns available, today’s sexy nursing & Maternity Lingerie styles allow you to still feel attractive and self-assured as your body grows and changes.

Even sexy maternity and sexy nursing sleepwear is keeping up with chic styles. PJ boxer sets, nightshirts and lounge pants are being shown in a variety of prints, stripes, and colors. Today’s sexy maternity and sexy nursing pajamas are not just for sleeping anymore. If you are planning to breast feed, you are in luck. The American Academy of Pediatrics now recommends new mothers to breast feed for at least 12 months. So, as the number of nursing mothers increase, so does the demand for better nursing clothing.

There is a greater variety of sexy nursing fashions today than ever before. In addition to sexy nursing bras and sexy nursing nightgowns, there are clothing styles for casual-wear at home or around town; as well as at the office or for more formal affairs. They are designed with such style and comfort and are so discreet that it is hard to tell they are designed for breast feeding at all. With all that said, where does a new mom begin? What does an expectant mom really need? Well, besides a nice hot bubble bath and a full-body massage, there are a number of items that a new or expectant mom “must-have.”

Sexy Maternity Clothing options really depend on your lifestyle, whether you work in your home, or out. Expectant moms can typically use a good pair of jeans as well as a basic black pant or skirt that can be either dressed up or down. At least 2 good fitting sexy maternity and sexy nursing bras. Be careful because your breasts will change in size throughout your pregnancy and beyond while you’re nursing. If you’re experiencing lower back pain, a maternity support belt can provide great relief. Comfortable, well-fitting shoes are also very important, especially in your last trimester.

After the baby arrives, aside from breast feeding, the best way to feel close to your baby is to wear your baby either in a sling or in a baby carrier. A functional diaper bag is also essential for your “baby repertoire.” Contemporary bags are designed to merge fashion with function by using new microfiber materials. No longer do diaper bags scream “Baby-on-board.” If you’re breast feeding and returning to work, or will be away from your baby for an extended period of time during the day, a hospital grade, double-electric breastpump is a definite “must-have.”

For home use or for the more “occasional pumper,” there are a variety of great manual hand-pumps available. A support pillow is also essential to provide support and comfort while breast feeding or as a cozy and secure place to prop the baby. A good lanolin product is also great whether or not you will be breast feeding. Not only does lanolin sooth sore nipples, but it’s also great on dry, chapped skin or lips as well as for minor cuts and scrapes.

No matter what you wear, your pregnant glow will surely make you a beautiful woman. But, fortunately, today’s fashions allow you to have more than just your “radiant glow” to make you adored by everyone who sees you. So go ahead and induldge yourself. These next few months are one of the most special times in your life. You deserve to be beautiful.

De Ma Vie Intimate Apparel Has Designed the First Ever Sexy and Functional Nursing Bra

2005-10-01T23:05:00.000-07:00

After months of sketches and piles of fabric, the company designed what it believes is the first truly sexy nursing bra.

(PRWEB) September 18, 2005 -- After months of sketches and piles of fabric, De Ma Vie Intimate Apparel has designed the first ever sexy and functional nursing bra.De Ma Vie was started by two single moms in the fall of 2004, for nursing mothers in the Portland, Ore., metro area.

Our stunning collection of gorgeous colors and styles are sure to please the most fashionable new mom.You can review articles about DE Ma Vie at Portland Picks, titled "You are one hot mama" http://www.portlandpicks.com/archived-80.php, and in the October 2005 issue of Pregnancy Magazine. Or view us directly at http://www.demavie.com

About De Ma Vie Intimate Apparel:After having our children, we found it increasingly difficult to find fashionable nursing bras and panties anywhere on the market. We searched high and low and came to the conclusion that “sexy” in the nursing world meant you could find a bra in black (if you were lucky). So out of sheer frustration we came up with the idea to start our own company. Bright eyed and bushy tailed we dove head first in to our business with reckless abandon.

Very shortly after, we realized that juggling one year olds, diapers, nap times, and new business was not an easy task. After months of sketches and piles of fabric we designed what we believe is the first truly sexy nursing bra. We hope that you will enjoy our colors and styles as much as we do. So pamper yourself and treat yourself well; you are one hot mama.

De Ma Vie Intimate Apparel is based in Portland, Ore., and was created by two single mothers, Flavia Montezuma and Heather Chamberlain. The collection is focused on combining the needs of nursing mothers with the high fashion trends of today. With a wide selection of fabrics and colors we hope to have something for everyone.

Breast feeding, breast feeding tips, breast feeding experience, breast feeding problems, lactation consultant , breast feeding diet, breastfeeding

2005-09-29T23:25:00.000-07:00

"You probably know that breast feeding your baby is both an enjoyable and satisfying experience. Once the milk supply is well established and the nursing relationship is going well most mothers will not experience breast feeding problems.

There are however, some situations that may arise early in the breast feeding experience that new mothers should be aware of. Not every mother will experience any or all of these breast feeding problems, but being aware that they exist and how to avoid them is very important.

The following are some breast feeding tips that may help you in your nursing decision.
Make sure that you are sticking to a breast feeding diet. Just because you had your baby doesn't' mean you should stop eating healthy and taking care of yourself. What a nursing mother eats directly affects her baby. It is also a good idea to keep track of your breast feeding diet in the first few weeks. You may learn that certain foods you eat make your child fussy, like broccoli or chocolate. Keeping a log of your breast feeding diet can help you determine what foods your child is sensitive to.

Another common mistake is improper breast feeding positions. There are four main positions that are widely used and seem to be the easiest on mom and the baby. There is the "cradle", "football hold", "cross cradle", and "laying on your side" positions. These can be easily found and researched in breast feeding videos and with breast feeding pictures. If you can, try to check out a breast feeding video at your local library to familiarize yourself with some of these positions. You can also get helpful brochures from your lactation consultant with lots of breast feeding pictures that are very helpful.

The last breast feeding problem that some mothers experience is breast engorgement. This can be avoided mostly by breast feeding your baby frequently (8-12 times in 24 hrs). Expressing your breast milk if you miss any feedings. Avoiding supplements of water or formula for the first 3-4 weeks (unless medically indicated). And lastly, when weaning your baby, do it gradually. A lot of women do not feel comfortable breast feeding in public. We recommend that you visit specific sites that give women breast feeding tips about breast feeding in public. There are many rights that women aren't' aware of when breast feeding in public. These can differ from state to state, so be aware of your legal rights as a nursing mother. Try not to skip any af your scheduled nursing times even if that means breast feeding in public. This could save you from breast engorgement and very sore breasts. Skipping your nursing times is the biggest cause of breast engorgement.

If you need any further breast feeding tips on any of the items listed here, we recommend that you see a lactation consultant in your area. They are very helpful and have lots of information that can help in the beginning weeks of nursing."
