It is naturally sterile and safe to breastfeed a baby. The milk is always at the right temperature and doesn't cause allergic reactions. It helps to reduce Breast cancer and has a high nutritional value. It is also cheaper and better for the environment.

Will your milk go away if you breastfeed only twice a day?

Congratulations on your decision to breastfeed! A woman's milk supply is regulated by her baby's milk demand. After the milk comes in (a few days after giving birth), the mother's supply may be higher or lower than what the baby needs. After a few days, the mother should be able to produce enough to meet the baby's needs. Over time, many women choose to wean their babies and only breastfeed a few times a day. As long as you are consistent and feed your baby twice a day around the same time each day, your supply will adapt and will only produce enough milk to satisfy the baby for those two feedings. It's important to note that if you are nursing your baby for more than these two feedings that you gradually decrease to only two feedings a day (eliminate one feeding each week). Failure to decrease the feedings could result in a plugged duct or mastitis.

Should I breastfeed my baby like my fiance wants or go ahead and bottle feed from the start like I want to?

you should breastfeed ur baby coz it will give him more nutrients and i think he'll be ore smarter..!! dats wat my mom said coz shes a nurse..!! trust me Whether or not to breastfeed is a very personal decision. IMO I think you should at least give it a try and see how you feel about it. Your breast milk is specifically tailored to YOUR infants needs and offers valueable protection to your baby especially in the newborn period. Breastfeeding doesn't only have benefits to your baby but you as well. Breastfeeding lowers your risk of cancer 4.3% for each year you breastfeed, and that's just one benefit. It also lowers your risks of diabetes, osteoporosis, arthritis, and heart disease. Your baby will have lower risks for SIDS, diabetes, cancer, asthma, obesity, allergies, and common childhood infections(ie ear & respiratory etc.) and diarrhea and stomach viruses. Breast milk is a living substance, plus there's no better feeling than knowing that you alone nourished your child! Seeing your baby grow and flourish on mom's milk alone is an amazing benefit in itself. Good luck with your delivery and with your decision on infant feeding! =)

What are the potential reasons for a baby refusing to breastfeed when the mother's milk is chunky?

There are several potential reasons why a baby may refuse to breastfeed when the mother's milk is chunky. One reason could be that the baby is having difficulty latching onto the breast due to the thicker consistency of the milk. Another reason could be that the baby is experiencing digestive issues or discomfort from consuming chunky milk. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine the cause of the chunky milk and address any concerns regarding breastfeeding.

When can you breastfeed safely after taking recreational drugs?

The obvious medical answer to this question is naturally evasive. You should never take recreational drugs in the first place, and should certainly never expose your baby to recreational drugs that might be in breastmilk. My fear is that the question is asked by someone who is trying to determine what would be a safe amount of time to wait after using a drug before breastfeeding. My hope is that what they mean to ask concerns how long after quitting the use of recreational drugs can one safely begin to breastfeed. The answer to the first is easy. There is no safe way to take recreational drugs and breastfeed during the same time frame. The answer to the second is a bit more difficult. A pregnant woman should stop using recreational drugs immediately upon learning that she is pregnant, if not before. After the nine month pregnancy period, she should be able to safely breastfeed once the baby is born.
