AAB 064 Breastfeeding: Breast pumps, milk storage - Part 2 Jun 03, 2016

Show notes

Human milk is a fresh, living substance—not just a ready-to-use food. When you make the effort to provide expressed milk for your baby, you are ensuring that your baby continues to receive ideal nourishment and protection against many diseases. Human milk's anti-bacterial properties actually help it stay fresh. The live cells and antibodies in the milk that discourage the growth of bad bacteria in your baby's intestines also guard against bacterial growth when the milk is stored in a container. The interpretation of research on human milk storage varies widely which is why when you ask 10 different people about storage guidelines - What are safe methods and temperatures for storing and defrosting and warming, you may get 5 different responses. Let's not get too hung up on the storage temperature information yet.

AAB 060 Breastfeeding Myths May 19, 2016

Show notes

There is so much information about breastfeeding. Some of it is great and accurate and exactly what we want moms to know. Other information runs the gammet from poor to downright negligent. While there are frequently what I call "nuggets" of truth in what a lot of people share with breastfeeding moms, it may not be right for their individual breastfeeding relationship. Confused? Well, come along with me for the ride and I hope to be able to explain myself.

Poor information can be responsible for some mothers not continuing to breastfeed. Poor information can be responsible for moms not making enough milk. Poor information can be responsible for babies not gaining well.

AAB 059 Breastfeeding: Midwifery, Birth, Postpartum - Jennifer Hoeprich May 16, 2016

Show notes

Jennifer was born in small town Water Valley, Mississippi, whose claim to fame is having one grocery store called Piggly Wiggly. Her mother was born at home in that same small town and when she was 5 years old they moved to Lake Havasu, a retirement community, which is in Arizona. It also has the highest teen pregnancy rate in the state as there was not a lot to do. Jennifer was creative at home,she made magazines, got into journalism, and was writing little things that she has kept since then. This was all before blog posts were a thing. We laughed at how the paper journal is old school. Jennifer had an older brother and an older sister, who were both in their early to mid 20s when she was born. Since she never lived with them, she felt pretty much an only child. We talked about the return of coloring books and how adults are using them to explore the arts and relax. Jennifer mentions using them in her prenatal mediation class

AAB 058 Breastfeeding Babies - Nursing in public May 13, 2016

Show notes

My name is Autumn and I am an ASU student. Im a breastfeeding college mom who was recently assigned a persuasive speech topic. I was able to pick so i decided to choose something im struggling with now which is being shamed for public breastfeeding without a cover. Would you be up for helping me with an interview on why we should normalize breastfeeding instead of making it something to do in a private manor?

I feel awful that Autumn or anyone else who has been shamed for public breastfeeding without a cover. I know that I am very much into the world of breastfeeding mothers and so it is easy for me to say that I just don't get it. But, honestly, I just don't get it. Gosh, no matter what anyones personal opinion is, the primary purpose of our breasts is to feed our babies, is to keep our babies alive through the nourishment and hydration we offer and the primary way our babies grow and thrive from newborn to infant to toddler. Our human milk is meant for our human babies and plain and simple and for untold amount of years, it has been a matter of survival.
