4 Benefits of Pregnancy Massage:

1. Relieves Pregnancy Discomfort: Pregnancy massage helps alleviate common discomforts such as back pain, muscle tension, and swelling by promoting relaxation and improving circulation. It can provide much-needed relief, allowing the mother to enjoy a more comfortable pregnancy journey.💕

2. Reduces Stress and Anxiety: Pregnancy can bring about increased stress and anxiety for expectant mothers. Massage therapy during pregnancy releases endorphins, known as "feel-good" hormones, which help reduce stress levels and promote a sense of relaxation and well-being. This positive impact on the mother's mental state can also benefit the baby.💕

3. Improves Sleep Quality: Many pregnant women struggle with sleep disturbances due to discomfort or hormonal changes. Pregnancy massage can help improve sleep quality by reducing muscle tension, promoting relaxation, and releasing serotonin, a hormone that aids in regulating sleep patterns. By improving the mother's sleep, the massage indirectly benefits the baby's development and overall health. 💕

4. Enhances Bonding and Emotional Connection: Pregnancy massage provides an opportunity for the mother to connect with her baby on a deeper level. The gentle touch and nurturing environment created during the massage contribute to a sense of bonding and emotional connection between the mother and the unborn child. This positive emotional state can have long-lasting effects on both the mother and baby throughout their journey together.💕

4 Reasons to Try Breastfeeding: 1. Optimal Nutrit

4 Reasons to Try Breastfeeding:

1. Optimal Nutrition: Breast milk is nature's perfect food for infants, providing a unique blend of nutrients that support their growth and development. It contains the perfect balance of proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals, tailored specifically to meet the needs of your baby.

2. Immune System Boost: Breast milk contains antibodies and immune-boosting properties that help protect your baby from various infections and illnesses. The antibodies passed through breast milk can strengthen their immune system, reducing the risk of respiratory infections, ear infections, and gastrointestinal issues.

3. Bonding and Emotional Connection: Breastfeeding promotes a strong emotional bond between you and your baby. Skin-to-skin contact and the closeness experienced during breastfeeding can foster a deep sense of connection, comfort, and security for both mother and child.

4. Health Benefits for Mum: Breastfeeding offers numerous health benefits for mothers as well. It helps with postpartum recovery by stimulating the uterus to contract, reducing bleeding and promoting faster healing. Additionally, breastfeeding has been linked to a decreased risk of certain cancers, such as breast and ovarian cancer, and can aid in postpartum weight loss.

Embrace the wonderful experience of breastfeeding and enjoy the many benefits it brings to both you and your baby.💕

Empowering Working Parents: Celebrating #WorldBreastfeedingWeek! Join me as I shed light on the challenges faced by working parents in continuing their breastfeeding journey. Let's make a difference together! 🌍💕 #BreastfeedingJourney #WorkingParents

World Breastfeeding Week is a global initiative that highlights the importance of breastfeeding for the health and well-being of both infants and mothers. This year’s theme, “Enabling Breastfeeding: Making a Difference for Working Parents,” sheds light on the challenges faced by working parents in continuing their breastfeeding journey after returning to work. In this blog, we will discuss personal experiences, the role of the community in supporting working parents, and the need for improved resources and guidelines from organisations like UNICEF and the government to ensure successful breastfeeding at work. Additionally, we will explore new holistic wellness treatments designed specifically for breastfeeding parents, which can provide a boost to their well-being during this important time.

Well done to reaching 600 days of breastfeeding your sweet baby.🙌🏾💕 I am happy that me and my team at the Virtual Breastfeeding Cafe @b_breastfeeding_b was able to provide you with guidance and support through your journey 💕

Repost @midwifepatch WORLD BREASTFEEDING WEEK 2023.

📝Reflecting on my incredible journey as a breastfeeding mother, this World Breastfeeding Week I celebrate nearly 600 days of nurturing my daughter with love and care.

📸If you want to know what I'm staring at in this photograph it's actually the most beautiful Asian elephants at the zoo. One of life's most amazing experiences as I gaze at a mother or aunt breastfeeding their calf.

🐘Did you know elephant's milk is really high in protein and has 100 times more protein than cow's milk?!

👩‍🔧This year's theme, 'Let's make breastfeeding and work, work' I've been able to stay by my daughter's side throughout the entire time I've been feeding her. It hasn't always been easy, but with hard work, determination, and support from Shaheda, Carmelle Gentle, Rosie, Vanisha, Ruth and whoever else we've met along the way. We've truly thrived together. Forever grateful for this bond we share! 🌟

20 iron-rich foods commonly found in Jamaica that are generally considered safe to consume during pregnancy. 💕

Iron is essential during pregnancy for several reasons:

1. Oxygen transport: Iron is a key component of hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to all tissues in the body, including the developing fetus. Sufficient iron levels help ensure an adequate oxygen supply to support fetal growth and development.

2. Increased blood volume: Pregnancy leads to an increase in blood volume to support the growing fetus and placenta. Iron is necessary for the production of new red blood cells, helping to prevent iron-deficiency anemia, which can cause fatigue, weakness, and complications during pregnancy.

3. Fetal development: Iron plays a crucial role in the development of the fetal brain and nervous system. Sufficient iron intake supports proper cognitive and neurological development of the baby.

4. Maternal health: Iron is important for the overall health and well-being of the pregnant person. Insufficient iron levels can lead to fatigue, weakness, compromised immune function, and increased risk of infections.

5. Preventing complications: Iron deficiency anemia during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of preterm birth, low birth weight, and developmental delays in the baby. Adequate iron intake can help reduce these risks.

It's important to maintain appropriate iron levels during pregnancy through a balanced diet, iron-rich foods, and, if recommended by a healthcare professional, iron supplements. Regular prenatal check-ups and blood tests can help monitor iron levels and support a healthy pregnancy.

Can you name some iron rich foods from your home country? 😁

This is why breastfeeding support needs to be accessible to all. This is why when we prepare for birth we should also prepare for infant / breastfeeding. This is why #blackbreastfeedingweek is needed.

It’s not the the mothers who failed it is the system who failed the parents.

This is an unfortunate horror story which can frighten others to consider breastfeeding. Breastfeeding is way more that food and far superior to formula. We need more money within the breastfeeding community as mothers need support to help reduce all the long term illness and health issues including death rates. Yes it is that deep, but at the end, everyone needs to have a choice on how they choose to feed their babies. Informed and supported choices is key.💯

We as a society need to do better to protect infant / breastfeeding. 💕.

Better late than never💕.

Ruth Dennison @121doula and founder of @b_breastfeeding_b and #blackbreastfeedingweek in the UK

Why Cultural Safety in Breastfeeding Matters

Black-Caribbean, Mixed-Black-Caribbean-White and Mixed-Black-African-White babies are at higher risk of Unexplained Death in Infancy and SIDS.

Breastfeeding lowers the risk of SIDS, so cultural safety in breastfeeding support actually saves lives. Biases and assumptions can assume that mothers from a particular ethnic background may not need support. Sometimes we can assume they have lots of family support. However family support and cultural influences can encourage parents to supplement breastfeeding with other milk or food. Early introduction of solids can be a particular issue. Making sure all families have evidenced baseed information around the guidelines is essential.

In Ruth's work in the NHS, and privately, she has personally witnessed disparities in maternal health care. We need to pay attention to biases and racial stereotypes, both our own and also call out those of our colleagues.

There is also a massive lack of ethnic diversity around breastfeeding imagery, both in breastfeeding information and also on social media and online sources. This needs to be immediately addressed.

Ruth set up Black Breastfeeding Week UK in 2018 to stop disparities, raise awareness of how cultural influences affect breastfeeding, how the history of slavery and racism affect breastfeeding in Black families today. She is also passionate about normalising and promoting long term breastfeeding.

There are lots of health disparities in the Black community that would be helped by an increase in breastfeeding rates.

I wrote this poem at the beginning of Black Breastfeeding Week as I knew I wasn’t holding an event this year, this poem came to me and I thought I should share this with the world. 💕

Happy last few minutes in Black Breastfeeding Week. 🎉🎉

Let this week help you reflect on what you can do to help better breastfeeding outcomes, and save lives within the black community, which has the highest infant and maternal mortality rates here in the Uk. 💕

Did you know that @who recommends breastfeeding your baby to two years and beyond?

When it comes to stopping breastfeeding, you may feel a mixture of emotions and there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach when it comes to weaning your baby off the boob.

Hear from 3 mums who talk with doula and breastfeeding expert Ruth @121doula about when they decided to stop breastfeeding and how they felt.

If you're a mum and want more information about feeding your baby or stopping breastfeeding, you can find information and support in our app. Download Baby Buddy by heading to our bio ☝🏾
