When a friend asks me for a favor I always try to accommodate but now that Iβm a mom of toddlers and a breastfeeding mom of toddlers simple things like picking up a friend from the airport can be a struggle. Toddlers have limited patience so itβs always a great idea π‘ to bring snacks water and milk! Luckily when theyβre in need of milk sippy cups I have two built in milk cups supplying milk the healthiest possible way straight from the source. In recent discoveries and discussions on a few mommy groups and child health education platforms Iβm subscribed to it has been brought to my attention that some extremely disturbing things that I just canβt bring myself to mention have happened to babies from formula poisoning! YES FORMULA POISONING! Any mother that can breastfeed safely should. Formula should be the last resort of nourishment for newborns! Theyβre are many places that sell or provide donations of pasteurized human breastmilk that is the safest and healthiest nutrition for a newborn baby. Formula is man made chemicals made to mimick breastmilk but itβs still chemicals and as we all know man made things come with theyβre own set of risks! If youβre a mother and expecting or are on the fence about pumping or breastfeeding please remember that your human milk made by nature is the safest and best choice if itβs physically and safely possible! Breastfeeding direct from the source can also reduce the risk of SIDS by 60%!!! We as mothers need as much help as we can to keep our babies alive and healthy and human milk for human babies is the best way to do that. I will never knock a mother down for what choice she makes for her own baby and I know that plenty of babies have survived on formula alone but is it worth the risk? Not to me. Please always do whatβs best for you and your family and talk to your doctor but if I can encourage even one mother that is on the fence about breast-feeding to breast-feed her baby safely and help any mother to reduce the risk of SIDS or formula poisoning then Iβm doing what I set out to do as a breast-feeding advocate. Nature made our amazing life sustaining breasts to feed our beautiful babies! #normalizebreastfeeding #normalizebreastfreedom #humanmilk
