We’ve all heard the sentence tagged at the end of all the milk ads: “Breast Milk is best for babies up to two years.” Beyond just breast milk, though, it’s also breastfeeding itself that is best for babies. But why exactly? We sit down with Abbie Yabot, lactation and breastfeeding expert and coach, to learn the basics behind that well known statement.
Concerned that her daughter wouldn’t have enough milk to drink while she was at work and being a researcher by profession, she began looking for the best way to boost her milk supply so that she would be able to pump enough to store for her child while she was away. This led to her discovering lactation treats
Breastfeeding can be a frustrating challenge for many moms. For those who struggle with their production, it can be difficult to see some moms breastfeed so easily and produce milk in great abundance. Often, moms feel discouraged and inadequate when they see that their babies are still hungry and they are out of milk. If you’re a mom struggling with milk supply, and none of those methods have worked yet, consider these other, less conventional, methods.
In the battle between scientific research and real-world experience, the bottom line is this: If lactation treats work for you and increase your breastmilk supply then keep going and enjoy them as much as you can!
Breastfeeding is both a joy and a challenge of mothering an infant. The joys, of course, come from knowing and being able to feed your child the healthy breast milk s/he needs. There really is nothing like knowing you can nourish your child plus contribute to building his/her immune system.
