Hearing comments like ‘why wouldn’t she use a Muslin’ or an awkward glance of disgust. I think maybe as roman is quite big for his age wearing size 9-12month clothes some people think it’s unnecessary to breastfeed a baby of that age. For all those people please read this 👇🏼👇🏼 Medela website- -Breastfeeding After 6 Months Helps Baby Digest the New Solid Foods in Their Diet -While Breastfeeding, Baby is More Likely to Eat a Range of Flavoured Foods -Breastfeeding Helps Baby with Teething -Breastfeeding Also Provides Ongoing Protection During the months 6 -12 and beyond you’ve probably already realised that babies are much more active and will try to put everything in their mouth! Your breastmilk is still jam-packed with protection and antibodies, even after 6 months. And I’m sure you can imagine why they need this! Our bodies are super clever and have made it possible for our babies to safely explore their surroundings with all their senses, yet still be protected whilst they grow and taste almost everything! Some fascinating research showed that in a baby’s second year (12-23 months) 448 mL of breastmilk provides: 29% of energy requirements 43% of protein requirements 36% of calcium requirements 75% of vitamin A requirements 76% of folate requirements 94% of vitamin B12 requirements 60% of vitamin C requirements So you can see there are significant health benefits to both baby and you for continued breastfeeding way beyond 6 months and even further than 12 months. Most of those benefits will last a lifetime. @nhswebsite - Health benefits of breastfeeding for mum Breastfeeding and making breast milk also has health benefits for you. The more you breastfeed, the greater the benefits. Breastfeeding lowers your risk of: breast cancer ovarian cancer osteoporosis (weak bones) cardiovascular disease obesity I will not cover Roman with a Muslin the same as u won’t eat your pizza with a blanket over your head. I will not hide away or be made to feel ashamed or embarrassed for feeding my baby. #breastfeeding #breastfeeding7months #breastfeedingsupport #normalisebreastfeeding」10月23日 5時07分
