As we welcome a new month, let’s explore the intriguing world of April babies – those born during the blossoming of spring. Just like the vibrant flowers that begin to bloom, April-born babies bring a unique blend of characteristics that make them truly special. From their birthstone to their zodiac signs, here’s a closer look...
With the start of a new month, I like finding interesting facts about babies born at that moment. We all know that zodiac signs and stars’ position influence our personality and traits so this is a little chance to understand a bit more about the baby you’re expecting.

The statement “breast is best” refers to the belief that breastfeeding is the optimal way to feed an infant. But is it really? While there is strong evidence to support the numerous benefits of breastfeeding, it is essential to keep in mind that every family and situation is unique. The decision to breastfeed (or not)...
I had a similar experience in that Flora wouldn’t latch on and because I’d had such a traumatic birth (emergency C-section and lost over half my blood supply) my body couldn’t produce enough milk. Midwives were no help at all. Eventually the senior consultant told me to use formula to top up. So that’s what we did – started out on breast milk and topped up with formula for every feed. Worked like a charm. Really fed up that the “breast is best” mantra is still so prevalent. It doesn’t work for all women and ultimately, “fed is best” however you do it!ReplyCancel
Sorry to hear you had issues as well. Breastfeeding is bloody hard and no one really prepares you for it. So many women live the early stage in guilt and failure because they think it’s their fault.
We don’t openly talk about it much and things don’t change.
That’s why I decided to start this project and hopefully it will bring more awareness.
Thanks for sharing your story Lisa.ReplyCancel
