Breastfeeding is good for the baby and mom. However, in this process there are some nuances that cause a woman a little discomfort. Below we list the situations in which every young nursing mother will probably recognize herself.
1. I want hot, fat, alcohol - and all at once
Now it’s popular to eat right, everyone knows what benefits it brings. During lactation, it is especially important to adjust your diet. If the baby feels well, he does not have colic, swelling and allergies, you can sometimes eat something from the category of not entirely useful, but only a little bit. As luck would have it, right now I want to “junk” food, and more and all at once. I would like to eat a piece of chocolate cake, pizza with hot sauce, drink all the strong coffee, and better - a glass of good wine. How much can you eat boiled breast with buckwheat!

2. Special underwear is comfortable, but it is so tired
Yes, special underwear for nursing mothers is very comfortable and pleasant for the body - pure cotton. Yes, it has wide straps that support the chest, and a detachable fragment. All this is practical, logical and sometimes even pretty. But I want to get rid of him and try on that completely impractical, but very seductive kit from the new collection. And at the same time, a blouse that does not have buttons on the chest!
3. Feeding time makes itself felt
At least check the alarm clock. The child has not yet begun to whimper, but inside everything is already compressed and tensed. The body is ready for the next meal. More precisely, the filing. A little more, a little more, and you just burst like a balloon.
4. Spots on the jacket appear so at the wrong time
It is only a little late for feeding, when two spots begin to appear on the clothes. Such embarrassment happens often, it would be necessary to prepare for them already. That's just something constantly stopping to run into the pharmacy for pads for nursing mothers. And this we are still about embarrassment during romantic nights with my husband are silent.
5. Sleeping on my stomach becomes just a dream
Time passes, and the young mother begins to think that people sleeping on their stomach live in some other universe. Is this even possible? Probably, they used to be able to do so on earth, but it was a long time ago and not true. During pregnancy, sleeping on my stomach did not work - you can’t settle on it. You can’t do this during feeding, because you can transfer the breast and earn lactostasis. Nothing, the day will come when you can again lie on your stomach and fall asleep all day.
6. Everyone seems to dream of participating in the process.
Others have some unhealthy interest - as if they also want to breastfeed. Otherwise, where are all these questions from? “Is there any milk?” Enough? "," How much are you going to feed? So long? Tell me, until the very school! "," Already quit feeding? Ta-ak early! The child needs contact with his mother! ”
The main thing is that everyone around knows exactly how much and what needs to be eaten and what is not needed to make the baby feel good. Naturally, they immediately inform the young mother about this.
7. The eternal dilemma - feed in public or run home
What should mom do if it is time for feeding, and she and the child are in a public place? If you sit in a secluded corner, even so inadvertently you can offend someone else's eyes. If you run home, the child will have to starve. Almost always, in such a situation, the baby unconditionally wins. He wants to eat here and now, what can you do.

The baby is growing fast. Now is the time to stop breastfeeding. For mom, this is a kind of relief - there will be more freedom, you can sleep on your stomach again, wear beautiful underwear.

Was not yet, still a portion of buckwheat at the expense of the establishment!
