What was your favorite food to have on hand while nursing? Did friends and family bring you food?
While you feed the baby, someone can help by feeding you. Ask visitors to bring meals and snacks that can be eaten one handed. #postpartum #breastfeeding #newbornnursing

Watch your baby, not the clock! When awake in the night with baby, avoid looking at the clock or checking your phone. You may fall back asleep quicker if you're less aware of the time. Sweet dreams! #BreastfeedingManagement #HungerCues #BabyFeedingTips

Human milk is more than nutrition! It contains living cells... leukocytes, epithelial cells, stem cells and probiotic bacteria. Our bodies are incredible!
