Greetings to all of you out there! I hope you're enjoying some time off 'between the years' (as we say in German).
I'm sure I've shared the following article before but maybe someone needs to read and hear it again.

Many of us talk about breast or bottle as a choice. I used to think that way, too. But I’m beginning to see it differently. On November 1, I had the privilege of speaking to a group of amazing and inspiring British women who work with breastfeeding mothers as peer counselors. The night before this...

Whether it's a Thanksgiving dinner, 'Kaffee und Kuchen' at Christmas, or a New Year's Eve raclette party...

Have you found it difficult to keep your baby close and nursing during the holidays?

This time of year often brings a steady stream of visiting family and friends, many of whom are eager to hold the new baby. It can be helpful to set boundaries and gently say no when you feel that you both need a break.

Try to keep your baby’s usual nursing rhythm.
Watch for your baby’s cues and respond to them promptly.
Be ready to step in if your baby becomes overstimulated or needs to nurse.
Seek out a quiet, calm spot for feeding to limit distractions.
Utilize baby wearing when you can.
As a bonus, staying close and nursing helps protect your baby from illness, thanks to the antibodies in your milk and the limited exposure.

At first, life with a new baby can seem quite chaotic, but as you get to know your baby, you will find gentle patterns emerging. You can build on these patterns, creating a daily rhythm to suit you both.

Our article has information that may help in the early days:

New podcast episode out now! Episode 22: Over to You - Part 1.

One one of our previous episodes, four LLL Leaders talked about adjusting to having a new baby. In this episode, Maria Yasnova and Sarah Fletcher talk with four mothers and parents about how they adjusted, and they dive deeper into their individual stories. Listen in as they celebrate triumphs and challenges, and reflect on expectations and adjusting to reality. Was becoming a mother and parent what you expected it to be?

Du hast schon? Dann teile gerne deine Erfahrungen mit uns und anderen Müttern!
