The Golden Hour is defined as the baby being skin-to-skin on the mother for an uninterrupted hour immediately following birth.  In reality, it is so much more than this.

Along with physical complaints, you will also be trying to balance your emotions (and the rest of life). However, this time is special and you should be able to do more than just survive it. Preparing for your postpartum time can help you feel more relaxed and capable.

Breastfeeding is amazing... but why? I'm so glad you asked... I have compiled the following list of just ten of the amazing benefits that come along with nursing a baby.

There is breastfeeding information that you need to know. No worries, you don't have to turn your breasts into trophies, but you may want to know how so many women have made it to reach their goals with (what seems like) ease!

Breastfeeding in holiday attire can present quite a challenge.  As a mom, your day to day outfits typically allow for easy access to the milk makers, but when it comes time to find the perfect party look, nothing seems to work.

Go ahead and RSVP “Yes” to that party or gathering this season.  While having a newborn is a great excuse to get out of getting dressed up and socializing, you don’t have to stay home if you don't want to.

I have breastfed forever... over 70 months and counting.  If you think for one second that I have completed this momentous milestone without wine, then you do not know me at all. Another hypothetical question: How you think I keep getting pregnant?

Duh. WINE.   (Oh – and my husband is incredibly good looking.)

Raise your hand if you have ever woken up in a pool of breastmilk. Raise your hand if you know the feeling of being awoken by your rock hard, milk-filled breasts.

Did you know that breastfeeding for 2 years or more significantly lowers the chance of having cancer later in life? Yep.  It’s amazing how our bodies work.  It’s as if we were meant to birth babies AND FEED THEM.  Crazy.
