What’s more perfect than Valentine’s Day?
Valentine’s Day on a FRIDAY! 😍

Why not dedicate this time of 💖 LOVE 💖 to your milky sprout?

Here’s how:

❤️ Go for a low stimulating walk in the garden
❤️ Hop in a warm bath and do some skin to skin
❤️ Sing to your baby
❤️ Do a gentle massage & get them into a nappy
❤️ Hop in bed (topless!) & b**b 🎶 all night long 🎶
❤️ Have some of your favourite chocolate / snacks to up that Oxytocin even more!
❤️ Repeat as desired

REMEMBER:

❤️ Breast milk is ALWAYS beneficial!
❤️ Skin to skin is ALWAYS beneficial!
Regardless of age
Even adults can greatly benefit from skin to skin contact 🫶🏼

Not for ourselves, but for our milky sprouts 🌱

Babies don’t require much 💛

As new mothers, we often find ourselves inundated with advice - both wise and whimsical. Here’s what I’ve found to be truly beneficial:

Keep it simple!
When you and your little one are feeling cranky, overstimulated and unsettled, embrace simplicity. Dim the lights, shed your clothes, and do some skin-to-skin. This tender connection regulates both their body and mind, offering a soothing reset for your nervous systems!

Change of scenery
When the symphony of household noise peaks and your baby joins the chorus, try taking a calm walk in the garden. Skin to skin snuggled in a baby carrier works wonders! (Bonus points if it's feeding time, too!)

Know the cues
Many may not realize that babies possess cues for nearly everything! From hunger and satisfaction to sleepiness or relieving themselves, taking time to familiarize yourself with your baby’s unique signals can illuminate their needs. More often than not, offering breast is the magic answer. 🤫

Eliminating screen-time
Screens can overstimulate babies quicker than we imagine, even when they aren’t directly gazing at them. I’ve found that engaging my baby with alternative objects keeps her entertained and content for longer, preventing her from becoming overwhelmed too quickly.

GOOD NEWS!

Breastfeeding does not, after all, change our breasts - contrary to popular belief.

Many studies have found that the act of breastfeeding in fact does not cause the infamous “sag” we love to point out post-lactation. All thanks are actually due to pregnancy hormones.
