AAB 075 Breastfeeding Rebroadcast of Loris breastfeeding experience Jul 07, 2016

Show notes

Not knowing anyone who breastfed their baby, or never having seen another woman breastfeed her baby, I had no frame of reference , no role models in the breastfeeding arena. There was 1 book on the library shelf and it was The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding, written by a group of woman from La Leche League. I did not get this book until after my daughter was born. So, the breastfeeding class was the only place I received information on preparing for breastfeeding and what to expect when my baby was born. There were many days and nights that were filled with painful breastfeeding and major sleep deprivation. I learned a lot along the way. Humor was helpful. My baby getting bigger was helpful. It took us a while, but soon breastfeeding became enjoyable and easy. Through my experience, I learned to work hard to not judge another mother for the choices she makes. We are all doing the best we can. I choose to focus on education and support. This is my first breastfeeding experience

AAB 073 Breastfeeding Reflections on June Celebrations Jun 30, 2016

Show notes

A few weeks ago, I was sitting with my family and trying to coordinate calendars and trying to figure out what days we could schedule to celebrate the separate occasions. her birthday and our anniversary. My daughter Alisha , who has a birthday 1 day before my wedding anniversary ..... She said to me: Mommy, I am okay to share my birthday dinner with your anniversary dinner. We could celebrate it on the same night. I looked at my daughter, who is Usually all about having her own day, sometimes even a whole birthday weekend, where just all the attention on just her and said: Are you sure? And she said: of course! I was like: of course? When did my baby grow up? How did I miss this? I guess that is what happens when they grow up, graduate college get a real job, get married and have a life away from Mommy and Daddy. It goes fast people.. it truly does… so in the midst of your sleep deprivation and any parenting challenges.. try and remember, there will come a day when they are fully independent, they don't need for you to wipe their tushies anymore, or make their meals for them or drive them places and give them money. All of a sudden you turn around and just don't need you to care for them day to day. So, enjoy all the moments and special times with your precious babies. Read More

AAB 072 Breastfeeding Overcoming challenges with breastfeeding with Tori Levine Jun 27, 2016

Show notes

Tori grew up in Harrisburg with her Mom and Dad until she was 3 years old. They were divorced at that time and she primarily lived with her mother and visited her father every few weeks. She enjoyed her life as a part time single child and part time member of a larger family with a half brother and a step brother and step sister at her Dads house. So, she feels she had the best of both worlds. She enjoyed very different enriching experiences with each parent. Her mother took her to NYC and spend the weekend and see shows and with her Dad she would go to step sister who was in Croatian Folk music band and she knows she never would have experienced that world had she not been part of a larger family.

AAB 071 Breastfeeding pumping and returning to work part 5 Jun 24, 2016

Show notes

I hope that you have enjoyed listening to the Going Back to Work Series. There have been 4 parts so far and they have been chock full of great info for you. I am going to review some of the information that has received the most popular feedback with AAB listeners saying was most helpful and then I am going to answer some of the questions that I have received.

Doing a podcast is quite interesting and very different than when I am teaching a breastfeeding class or working one on one with a mom. I get asked questions and I am able to answer them right away. Once I answer your question, it is easy for you to follow that up with another question. This is how the learning happens when I work with you that closely. I also can gauge where the greatest interest lies and what, if anything might be the most confusing and I am able to respond to that right away.

AAB 069 Breastfeeding: Fathers Day and Nursing in Public Jun 16, 2016

Show notes

I am recording this on Thursday, June 16th, 2016 Father's Day is this weekend and I am quite sentimental about this day of celebration. I love my Daddy. He passed away a few years ago and I am sad that this will be another year that I can't give him a big hug and wish Him a Happy Father's Day. Another year has passed and I think of all that he has missed. All the great things his kids and grandkids have accomplished this year. I know that he is proud for that I am sure. But I do miss seeing his face, beaming with pride with love for his kids and grandkids. I hold him close during my everyday life and he travels with us to all the important life events, and yet, it is still not the same as getting a big Bear Hug from my Daddy. I wish I knew the day that he was going to die, I would have made it a point to say: I love you, just one more time! And yet, I know he knew that I loved him and I know for sure that he loved me unconditionally, and from this point on, that will always have to be good enough. Read More

AAB 067 Breastfeeding: Cleft lip Cleft Palate & breastfeeding - Margery Grill Jun 13, 2016

Show notes

Margery grew up in Southern Indiana in a small town. Margery was 1 of 4 girls and was number 2 in the line. She describes a very typical childhood with a mom that stayed home and a Dad that worked outside the home. The family moved to Toledo, Ohio as a teenager, which was not fun because she left all her friends and "the boyfriend." She knew that from the time she was a very young girl she wanted to become a nurse. Margery attended a Liberal Arts College and majored in biology because she knew she wanted to do something in the medical field. She first considered becoming a Dr., then thought perhaps a midwife. So, she started with nursing school, but did not go on to pursue midwifery. She is very happy with how things turned out.

AAB 066 Breastfeeding: Babies Bottles and Daycare Jun 09, 2016

Show notes

A majority of babies are not going to drink 9 oz of milk, so there is no reason whatsoever to purchase bottles that are 9 oz. Buying smaller bottles will save you a lot of room and money. 2. There is no one BEST bottle or nipple for breastfeeding babies. The marketing companies sell us stories that we think sound reasonable and we buy into it. Think about this. If there truly were a bottle that most babies preferred, they would be flying off the shelves and all the other companies would go bankrupt. Read more
