Human breast milk is specifically produced by human mothers to be fed to their human babies. Accordingly, the greatest risk of not feeding breast milk is rooted in this basic fact. While baby may receive adequate nutrition from other supplements like infant formula, human breast milk is the best milk for human babies. Human breast milk is dynamic, with nutritional and hormonal content varying according to the time of day, conformed to baby’s needs, changes as baby grows, allows for proliferation of healthy gut flora that help protect baby from infection, and decreases risks of chronic illnesses. There is NO perfect substitute for human breast milk! READ MORE of this blog at our website: https://mommababelactationconsultingllcwacotx.com/risks-of-not-feeding-breast-milk/

The initial intense excitement of delivery wanes and reality begins to set in. Time to start taking care of the tiny human you just delivered. You already decided during pregnancy that you want to breastfeed your baby, so you’ve already told your labor and delivery nurse when you were admitted to an L&D room at the hospital. Perfect! The best time to let your desires known for labor and delivery care by your medical team is when your care first begins at the hospital.

Mom and baby are center stage at delivery and thereafter, but dad is also an integral part of the scene. YES, mom carried baby in her womb for nine months, labored for what seemed like unending hours, and finally delivered baby into the world. But the hard work actually begins after delivery, when BOTH mom and dad are involved in taking care of their new baby human.

THE GOLDEN HOUR AFTER BIRTH
Placing baby skin to skin on mom may be a simple act to do with the newborn after delivery and the days following, but it is developmentally important.
