B.R.E.A.S.t.F.E.E.D.I.N.G.

I am a breastfeeding advocate as I tremendously believe in its holistic benefits.  Not only the babies enjoy the advantages but it also has wonderful effects to moms.  I’m sure you’ve heard several weight loss success stories  because of breastfeeding.  My post delivery physique is a great proof.  Just six months after giving birth, I’ve shed more than 25 pounds off my pregnancy weight.  Up to now that my son is 2 years old, I’m still breastfeeding him.  So albeit challenging, giving him my milk for 28 months now has never been and will never be a bad decision.  After all, breastmilk is still the “ultimate” best for babies up to 2 years and beyond, as the milk formula commercials say.

Here’s one interesting reminder how breastfeeding is the best choice for your babies:

Best for baby
Reduces incidence of allergies
Economical – no waste
Antibodies – greater immunity to infections
Stool inoffensive – never constipated
Temperature always correct and constant
Fresh milk – never goes sour in the breast
Emotionally bonding
Easy once established
Digested easily within two to three hours
Immediately available
Nutritionally balanced
Gastroenteritis greatly reduced

Overtime Plan..Failed.

I was supposed to work overtime last night after putting the little one to sleep.  However, it did not happen.  While waiting for him to doze off, the last thing I remember is that I was pondering on the article about getting rid of blackheads I read earlier.  Then the next thing that happened, I was awakened by the little one’s movement at 3 am.  I fell asleep at the same time that the little one did.  And so, my plan to lessen the overwhelming workload I have failed.  Tonight, I’ll make sure to drink a cup of coffee before putting the little one to sleep.

Today’s Learning

Everyday is a learning experience for all of us.  I’ve read from an inspirational book that in order to make our lives become more meaningful and fruitful, we must take note each of the learning, even the little ones, that we encounter each day.  Internalize, ponder upon them and practice wherever and whenever it is applicable.

So for today, these are the random little discoveries I encountered earlier:

1.  The more you force yourself not to sleep, the more you’ll fall into it.

2.  That protein powder is a lot different from any food powders out there because it’s actually a muscle building supplement.

3.  There’s something about 9 am and I wonder why my internet always conks out at this hour everyday.

4.  Even a minute dirt can hurt and cause heavy damage.

Breastfeeding Loses Weight Fast.

Barely six months after giving birth two years ago, common question directed to me then was “how to lose weight fast”.  I am among those “lucky” moms to whom breastfeeding is effective as a slimming regimen.  Added the fact that I’ve always been on the skinny side plus the zombie nights brought about by having a newborn were enough to make me lose all the pregnancy fats.  So whenever a single friend who’s been persistently yearning to get a slimmer body asks my secret, I always advise her to get married, bear a child and breastfeed.
