I have heard in some cultures Grandmother relactate to help out with feeding. So cool we human can do this!

In Vietnam, this image of a grandmother breastfeeding her grandchild is more than extraordinary, it’s part of a long history of shared nourishment.

Across cultures and centuries, communities have practiced cross-nursing and wet-nursing:
✨ In times when a mother was ill, passed away, or simply needed support, another woman, sometimes even a grandmother, stepped in to feed the baby.
✨ In Vietnam and other parts of Asia, women have been known to relactate, meaning they can restart or continue milk production, even later in life, when there is a baby in need.
✨ In Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, and Indigenous communities worldwide, shared nursing was seen as a form of survival, kinship, and solidarity.

Breastfeeding has never been just one mother and one child.

It has often been a communal act of love, protection, and survival.

This photo reminds us that human milk is not only food, it’s medicine, comfort, and a living connection that binds families and generations together.

Should I give my breastfeeding baby a pacifier?
It depends on how established your breastfeeding is. It is good to delay pacifier use until at least one month after birth to avoid interfering with establishing breastfeeding, as it can cause ni**le confusion, delay feedings, and negatively impact milk supply and baby's weight gain. While pacifiers can be helpful for comfort, meeting a baby's sucking and comfort needs at the breast first and waiting for breastfeeding to be well-established before considering a pacifier.
Here are some good reasons for delaying pacifier use:
Ni**le Confusion:
The shape and firmness of a pacifier's teat can differ from the breast, potentially leading to difficulties with latching and effectiveness at the breast.
Missed Feeding Cues:
Using a pacifier in the early weeks can mask a baby's hunger or comfort cues, causing parents to miss feeding opportunities and potentially affecting milk production.
Reduced Milk Supply:
Missed feedings and less effective sucking at the breast can contribute to a lower milk supply for the mother.
Impact on Weight Gain:
Delayed or missed feedings can negatively impact a baby's weight gain.
Baby's Development:
Breastfeeding provides comfort and satisfies a baby's sucking needs, which are important for healthy development. Meeting these needs at the breast first ensures your baby can learn to breastfeed effectively.
When to consider introducing a pacifier:
After a month:
Wait until breastfeeding is well-established, which usually takes about a month.
For comfort only:
Once established, consider using it for comfort or to help your baby fall asleep.
Prioritize breastfeeds:
Always offer a breastfeed before offering a pacifier to avoid missing feeding cues.
Monitor for problems:
If you notice sore ni**les or a shallow latch after introducing a pacifier, return to exclusive breastfeeding for a while and consult a lactation consultant.
Just Natural Breastfeeding is here for all of your questions and concerns!

Babies use various cues to indicate they are full and no longer need to feed. Let's look at some specific satiety cues:
👶🏼Turning away: A baby may turn their head away from the breast or bottle, indicating they've had enough.
👶Slowing or stopping sucking: A decrease in the pace or intensity of sucking is a good sign that the baby is full.
👶🏾Releasing the ni**le: The baby may release the breast or bottle ni**le, indicating they are finished feeding.
😌Relaxed body and hands: Full babies often have relaxed limbs and open hands, unlike the tense movements sometimes seen when hungry.
😴Falling asleep: Some babies will fall asleep while feeding when they are full.
😝Spitting out food: Spitting out food, even if it's a food the baby usually enjoys, can indicate they are full.
🍼Pushing away the bottle or breast: This is a clear sign that the baby is done feeding.

Growth spurts are a natural part of a child’s growth and development journey. It is during this period that their bones and muscles are forming, and the nutrients they eat create fat in their body and help them attain visible growth.

These are caused by the genetic makeup of the child. The genes that they carry from their parents are responsible for determining their height and appearance. These genes are the deciding factor of how tall your child will grow and how quickly they will reach their maximum height. However, two factors affect your child’s growth, the kind of diet that is being followed for your child and the environment surrounding the child and the mother during pregnancy.

During a growth spurt you might notice a change in your baby's sleep and eating patterns. Your milk supply will also change as it adapts to your baby's needs. Growth spurts generally last 2-3 days, in some cases, it may stretch up to a week. But by the time you notice one, your baby might already be back to their usual routine!
