Don't Tell Me I Look Good for Having 2 Babies

Posted by: Dr Cathy on 7/19/2011 | 7 Comments

Don't tell me I look good for having 2 babies!

That's just as bad as telling me I look good for my age. So before you even think of letting those words slip past your lips, let me reassure you...do not tell me that I look good for my age.

And while I’m on my soap box, don’t you dare ever tell a woman that she lost her pregnancy weight only because she breast fed her baby. Only because she breast fed? Do you have a clue how amazing a woman’s body is to first produce a beautiful baby in only 280 days and then continue for weeks, months, even years if she so desires, to provide nourishment for that baby?

Nursing for the Long Haul

Posted by: Dr Cathy on 5/21/2011 | 5 Comments
Planning on nursing your baby? Thinking of exclusively breastfeeding (EBF)? You'll want to find a comfortable position for you and your baby.
 
Lying on your side with baby snuggled up against you is perfect for bonding, relaxing with baby and establishing eye contact.

If you plan on sharing your bed with your baby, this position will allow baby to nurse while you both sleep peacefully.

The Family Bed

Is there anything sweeter than being snuggled up with your babies? Feeling their little bodies wiggle around in their sleep, listening to their every breath? It’s such a beautiful experience that I almost missed out on.

I had every intention of sharing our bedroom with our baby when our first baby was due in 2008. We had no plans to set up a nursery; I constantly joked that the newborn could sleep in a dresser drawer in our room - after all – it was bigger than my womb.
