I had the opportunity to talk about how I've seen the formula shortage affecting our community. It is heartbreaking watching families in our community worry and struggle to find solutions to feed their little ones. Maternal health in our country is already lacking and the postpartum period is already overwhelming enough without the added struggle on how we will be feeding our babies. This must be a priority. Veronica Ash
There's been a shortage of infant formula going on for some time, but people based in Central Illinois that spoke with WGLT said it hadn't hit hard until the past three-to-four weeks.

In case no one has told you:
You DO NOT have to enjoy every moment of motherhood. This {{does not}} make you a bad mother, it makes you a normal one!
You are allowed to love your kids and not enjoy every moment.

Let's learn more about Placentas!
The umbilical vein carries oxygenated, nutrient-rich blood from the placenta to the fetus.
While the umbilical arteries carry deoxygenated, nutrient-depleted blood from the fetus to the placenta.
The placenta is the only organ that our bodies dispose of after birth. Luckily for us we are aware of the benefits our placenta has after birth by encapsulating it.

The more we talk about it, the more it becomes normalized. It's important we talk about these things so we can have a better understanding of our bodies and when we should reach out for more support.

If you are currently using Similac make sure you check the lot number and check to see if it is part of the recall.
The quality and safety of our infant nutrition is our top priority. We’re initiating a proactive, voluntary recall of powder formulas manufactured at our Sturgis, MI plant, including Similac, Alimentum, and EleCare. We value the trust parents place in us and are doing everything we can to resolve this immediately. For more information as it becomes available, please visit: www.SimilacRecall.com.

I saw this picture and I wanted to share it because it is a good representation of what we call "doming".
This is when you go to sit up or do an ab work out and the stomach pops out a little bit.
With proper training of DEEP core muscles (transverse abdominis), we can strengthen stomach muscles WITH OUT this doming happening, which is from the separation between the more superficial re**us abdominis.
