Motherhood is the best gift for any woman and being a mother for many other children is the wonderful and blessed feeling a woman can have in her life time. A woman is a woman! A baby is a baby! No economical strata can compensate for babie\u2019s health or mother\u2019s time for the baby. As the world celebrates the breast feeding week from 1st to 7th August, WBW has defined the slogan for this year as \u201cEmpower Parents, Enable Breastfeeding\u201d.
\nWe are in an era, where the basic rights of a baby and a mother have become a debatable one. A lot of discussions are happening on breast feeding and its health impact on both mother and baby. It\u2019s high time we understand the nature\u2019s process and emotional value of a baby. The nature has given the best food for a baby is the mother\u2019s milk especially the first form of milk immediately after the delivery or new born baby is born. Technically it is called as colostrum rich in proteins, fats and antibodies. No formulated baby food can provide these benefits and they can always act as a supplement only.<\/p>\n
Reality check with senior mothers or their parents would tell them that a mother can emotionally connect with their baby through breast feeding only.
\nIt has a scientific proof that when a mother breast feed her baby not only to fill stomach but to satisfy baby\u2019s emotional and psychological needs.
\nShe would tell stories, observe each and every movement of a baby, introduce her brothers and sisters, relations and family members, pass on knowledge, share human and relationship values and bonded with the baby right from its birth through breast feeding only.
\nThe mother spends quality time with a baby during breast feeding only. Once the stomach is filled by default baby\u2019s emotional and psychological needs also fulfilled.
\nThat\u2019s the reason our parents, grand parents, siblings are still attached with their sons \/ daughter and vice versa. It\u2019s hard to see such bonding these days.
\nNothing has changed except for the fact that mother\u2019s don\u2019t breast feed their babies. These miss in one prime responsibility has created misfortune for the generations.
\nYoung mothers assume that breast feeding is a tiring job, takes a toll on their physical and mental health and disturbs their routine life.
\nThey pass on their responsibility of feeding and upbringing a baby to a baby sitter or grand parents and enjoy their regular life.
\nTheir priority is over job, career development, financial growth and social status.
\nThis lifestyle goes well for a certain period of time and reality strikes when the baby\u2019s behavior changed towards their parents.
\nA baby who is deprived of mother\u2019s milk naturally tends to behave abnormally and lacks emotional connect with parents and people.
\nThey also deprived of physical development, prone to infections, lack immunity, emotional intelligence and human values.
\nThey treat each individual as they wish, giving back answers, treating their parents like materialistic things and values them for nothing.
\nThat\u2019s the time each mother feels that I would have spent quality time with my baby and whatever I have earned for my baby has no meaning in life.
\nFeeding a baby is giving a life for self. When mother\u2019s breast feed their babies their hormones are functioning normally, happy hormones are secreted, feel the relaxation in body and mind, physically active and emotionally stable.
\nMother\u2019s milk has all the nutrients required for baby\u2019s intellectual and physical development.
\nThis is the right time for young mothers and mothers to become soon to realize the value of breast feeding and its psychological and physiological benefits for both of them.
\nYoung parents need to realize we are producing a baby for life and not as a living material.
\nEach baby deserves mother\u2019s milk, quality parental timing and bed time stories. We are producing generations to create, evolve and add value to human life.
\nMother\u2019s needs to understand breast feeding isn\u2019t just milk it all about love, affection and care.
\nAs a mother, nurture baby\u2019s stomach, mind and emotion only through mother\u2019s milk.
