Getting Started on Your Breastfeeding Journey
February 10, 2017 8:00 am | by

Breastfeeding can be a very rewarding part of being a mother. It can also be very stressful. Being prepared and getting off to a good start can make all the difference. Educating yourself on the basics of breastfeeding can help you be more successful. Preparing for breastfeeding can begin while you are still pregnant. Attend a breastfeeding class. Many hospitals offer breastfeeding classes. Develop relationships with friends who are breastfeeding or who have breastfed their children. Locate your local LLL (La Leche League ) for mother to mother breastfeeding support (3). Read breastfeeding books (see references at the end of this blog). If you

Bringing the Baby Home With Free Baby Announcement Printable
December 30, 2016 8:00 am | by

Bringing home a new baby from the hospital can feel overwhelming. You have all the right baby stuff, but now you need to figure out the actually-raising-a-baby thing. I feel like I was better prepared than most first-time moms as the oldest of 8 children. I wasn’t new to babies but I was new to this baby. Yet even still I remember when the midwives left thinking to myself, “They left me with this entire human being. Shouldn’t there be a test for this?” Settling into the new routine of parenthood can be a tough transition, I’ve been through it five

Why I Love Breastfeeding My Baby
October 25, 2016 4:21 pm | by

When I became pregnant with my first baby, I thought I had everything planned out. I wanted to cloth diaper, wear my baby and breastfeed for at least the first six months. I hadn’t been around breastfeeding mothers before I had my daughter, but I figured it would be easy. After all, it was natural, right?

I dealt with cracked nipples, low supply, and a baby with horrible reflux. Our breastfeeding relationships lasted a

Thursday Giveaway: Nursing Essentials
October 29, 2014 6:42 pm | by

Choosing to breast or formula feed is one of the first decisions you will make as a new parent. Each option provides different benefits for every family, but both have one thing in common — it’s hard work.   Breastfeeding is declared the most economical way to feed your baby because it requires little to few supplies. But for any breastfeeding mom, there are two accessories that are absolutely vital: nursing tank tops and reusable nursing pads. The MilkDaze Nursing Cami makes breastfeeding easier. The front layer conveniently and discretely pulls aside to expose the nipple and then snaps back into place without clips or hardware, allowing
