RE: Breastfeeding: benefits through the years

wow.. mind-blown indeed..

I always support breast feeding and assumed it was the way to go, but had no idea how magical it really is.

Let's go back to breastmilk changing for a second. This happens because when our children latch on their saliva goes into our milk ducts and tells our body just what their little body needs. Very cool if you ask me!

amazing

Stopping and snuggling and giving them a good nursing session can not only be soothing to them through these sometimes rough moments but can also help you two connect and maintain a strong bond.

Along with all these benefits some studies have shown that meeting a child's dependency needs through breastfeeding in these early days and allowing them to wean in their own time helps them grow into more secure independent people.

Makes sense.

It's like they have what they need, and make a decision.. rather than they didn't get and are always wanting

Giving kids everything they need is really the way for them to be secure independent adults (tragically, people sometimes think the opposite)

So happy for your beautiful family, and thanks for writing this, loved it.
