Re: For new moms and dads!!!

Is there anything wrong with swaddling? I thought it was a good thing.

^Adding to the above please please don’t panic, hate yourself or blame yourself if you can not breast feed for the time period you thought you wanted to.

Understand and know that breastfeeding is hard work for babies, their jaw gets a lot of exercise and that does tire them out, while feeding from a bottle is easier and not much hard work. Keep your circumstances, situations in mind. Not every woman can breastfeed but every woman has the ability of being a great mother.

And one wonderful piece of advice :** Do what works for you and your baby. IF your baby is peaceful because they are swaddled, swaddle them. IF you are being criticized by others for your choices take some time away. Nothing adds to the frustrations of a new mother than someone telling them they are doing it wrong and that they are a failure. So please do not listen to all the negative things that come your way. **
