Cuando María Jesús estaba en la barriga, sus encantadores papis (porque más simpáticos, graciosos y buena gente no podéis ser) vinieron a hacer su lista de nacimiento. Eligieron esta preciosidad de Bebecar española. Escogieron un saco capazo 3 usos de #ArtesaníaChari, bolso y cojín antivuelco de Mayoral. Al pasar a la preciosa a la sillita, nos compraron la colchoneta de verano pero como muchas veces pasa, con tanta clientela ni tiempo de hacer foto para enseñaros lo bonica que quedó la sillita vestida con nuestra colchoneta y otra talega que escogieron en la lista de bebé. Así que, Roxana y Jesús, si me leéis hacedle foticos a las cositas de la lista de vuestra princesa y me las mandáis, jejejeje. Os espero pronto por tienda que sabéis que cada vez que venís, a nosotros nos alegrías muchísimo con esa simpatía que tenéis y el ver a la tesoro crecer (la conocimos en la barriguita) para nosotros es una satisfacción.

:::FAMILY::: If I have learned anything from 2019 so far, it is to appreciate and be grateful for the health and love of family, because in an instant it can all be gone. The truth is, we are all just one emergency phone call away from our lives changing forever. Around Christmas, my dad had emergency heart surgery. His 95% blockage wasn’t showing up on tests, and we could’ve lost him suddenly and without warning at any time. I’m so grateful for our incredible doctor (and friend) that trusted her gut and not just test results, and for my stepmom for taking such great care of my papa. The reality of almost losing him nearly crushed me. Not to be outdone, my brother & sister in law upped the ante and said “I see your emergency heart surgery dad and raise you one emergency labor/delivery several months ahead of schedule!” My brother and SIL have been preparing for their 1st baby’s birth in March. But, my nephew had other plans and arrived 10 weeks early! We are so grateful that little-man is adapting well to life outside the womb so far. As soon as I learned the doctors couldn’t stop labor, I was on the first plane to Seattle. My mom drove up from Portland, and scooped me up at the airport. I’ve had the honor of volunteering in the NICU with @NowILayMeDownToSleep for over 10 years, and knew I needed to be by my brother’s side through this. There’s something about the overwhelming need to rally and be near family in times like these- even when there’s not anything you can do to change the circumstances. I am so grateful to have been able to document the first time they held their son, and capture the beginning of their NICU journey. My nephew has a fight ahead, but he’s strong, healthy and feisty. Watching my brother become a dad is a feeling words cannot describe. I’ve been immersed in setting up the baby’s nursery with my mom, rounds of NICU visits, and sharing the laughter, tears and hugs with family. It has been beyond priceless. Only mom/dad get to hold baby once a day for now, so my first auntie-snuggles will have to wait for a bit. I was thrilled to give him his first foot massage today while he soaked up the UV rays from the biliru - @momentostudios on Instagram

Meet them halfway. ⁠ ⁠ When I saw this beautiful picture I immediately thought about our relationship with water but foremost the relationship our babies have with water before birth. ⁠ ⁠ They are like fishes living in the ocean of our wombs. Crazy, right? ⁠ ⁠ So maybe, we could try to meet them halfway and invite ourselves to feel thel lightness they feel while floating around our belly. If you have access to the ocean, a pool, or a bathtub enjoy and let yourself go in the lightness of your body floating, it could also help you with back and pelvis pain. Rest from gravity and imagine your entering your babies world for a little while.⁠ ⁠ After all, we are more water than flesh. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ 📸: @milkandhannah⁠ •⁠ - @braytonbirthmethod on Instagram

I’ve been a very very hungry pregnant mama with an insatiable appetite. In the beginning I was so guilty because I was having a really hard time avoiding junk food and eating everything unhealthy in sight. Nothing healthy tasted good because of my nausea. But as soon as I started eating @aptamomph cereal bars, my snacking habits have been so much healthier. It gives you the satisfaction of snacking throughout the day while fueling your body with the important vitamins and nutrients you need to grow a healthy baby. It’s the best of both worlds 🤍 #BeginReady - @alexgodinez on Instagram

Empezas a llorar y lo único que queres es que todo este bien y el medico diga: tranqui mami esta todo perfecto Es tan extraña la sensación de ver su cuerpecito todo formado y ni siquiera sentirlo..

The past years have been lets say - challenging. Beautiful, wonderful, amazing - but challenging. Early 2017 I became Lilous co-parent - she was only 9 months old. So I had to learn quick, find a new home after living with my mom for a few months and basically restart life as I knew it. Getting through that phase changed me as a man. I felt like this was the life that was written for me forever. I couldnt imagine a life with a new partner (lord knows I tried). I was working every minute Lilou wasnt with me and spent every minute with her when she was. There was basically zero space left for me to develop a relationship... Plot twist. The universe decided to give me what I asked for and since that day - its been a dream. Having a new addition to this little family of 2, Milou has been a significant change in our lives. The list of requirements was long for the right person in my life. Because it demanded alot of patience and space for me to be a father to Lilou (the single most important girl in my life). It asked of her to be in love, while being able to give the freedom to me to focus on being a dad. So now we have this beautiful home together, a beautiful life and an endless amount of joy. I still have to get used to it sometimes lol. No stress, weird. But Im not writing these long stories without reason. Because something special happened. We wanted it, Lilou requested it and before we knew it we all got our wishes granted. The universe sometimes acts FAST if you want something with the right kind of love. Sometimes dreams do come true. Lilou is becoming a (probably the sweetest) big sister and Milou is getting her life long wish of having a child. Last but not least, I get another shot at family. A home for my daughter, my love and now my future little baby filled with love and happiness. Ive slept so well recently and it feels like theres a good reason for it. ❣️ - @marc_haers on Instagram

Forever chuffed hearing from mamas that they’re giving their breastfeeding boobs daily love using our Boob Oil! It’s 100% safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and contains botanical oils that can help to ease tension, and soothe discomfort and tenderness (we know how important it is to be calm + relaxed during feeding). • “I battled with mastitis from breastfeeding multiple times last year and so I started using Nüni Boob Oil. I use it daily and catch any lumps or blocked ducts before they become a problem and haven’t had mastitis since. •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I can easily say that I have you guys to thank for making my 12 month target for breastfeeding! I am really prone to blocked ducts and was considering pulling the pin at 9 months, but so happy to be starting my weaning journey in our own time. •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Now I see why this product is so important to have in your daily routine to catch any other lumps or bumps that might pop up. I know what I will be buying my sisters and mum for birthdays and Christmas from now on.” • Boob Oil doubles as a beautifully nourishing belly elixir too. We couldn’t be happier knowing Nüni has been a positive addition to mother’s routines during such a precious time. • Beautiful image thanks to @goop 🤎 - @nuni_wellness on Instagram

Well, looks like he’s pretty cozy in there! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 39 weeks and 4 days pregnant. I thought for sure labor was starting on Friday night but it stalled out and now here we are. ⁣I have seen time and time again how my thoughts create my reality. The words we tell ourselves are powerful so I’ve been speaking truth over myself, over this baby and his birth as I prepare my mind for the days to come. Here are 10 of the mantras that have been helping ease my anxiety as I wait, maybe they’ll help you too. ⁣ ⁣⁣ * This birth will be beautiful however it happens, we are safe. ⁣ * My body was designed to do this. ⁣ * My baby is strong and healthy. ⁣ * Nothing lasts forever, this too shall pass. ⁣ * I have no fear for you are with me. ⁣ * I have strength I didn’t know existed. ⁣ * This birth is a gift, this baby is a miracle. ⁣ * Inhale peace, exhale fear.

Eu pensei que já tinha vivido o dia mais feliz da minha vida até a minha princesinha nascer. Confesso que no início da gravidez eu tinha muito medo, eu tinha medo, é normal. Medo da minha filha nascer em plena pandemia, medo de ser um pai muito duro, medo de ser um pai muito liberal, medo de não saber cuidar da minha pequena, eu tinha medo até de não saber segurar ela por ser pequena demais, enfim, eram muitos medos. Mas Deus foi me mostrando a calmaria, me dando aquela confiança e hoje me sinto mais seguro quanto a isso. Eu sinto que sou um homem completo, sinto que ela me dá uma força, sabe?! Está sendo uma experiência única e muito incrível. Sei que terá momentos que não serão fáceis, mas eu estou pronto pra enfrentar tudo isso! Agradeço a Deus por esse presente, pois paternidade é um presente. - @eudevinhoo on Instagram

Sempre sonhei celebrar esse dia. Nem sei por onde começar. Ah essa lágrima, que anuncia a sua chegada...! Após aproximadamente 30 horas em trabalho de parto você veio ao mundo através de parto normal, foi imediatamente colocado em meus braços e lá permaneceu. Te amamentei pela primeira vez. Foi incrível, mas eu mal sabia que isso seria tão desafiador quanto a maternidade em seu total significado. Foi neste exato instante 08:18 do dia 4 de março de 2020 que me tornei de fato, MÃE. Que Deus nunca me deixe esquecer o peso dessa lágrima que abriu as portas para uma enxurrada de muitas outras, carregadas de grandes emoções. Essa é a real lágrima de felicidade, aquela que significa a lavagem de tudo que precisa ir, para que uma nova vida possa chegar. Nasce filho, renasce a mulher, nasce uma mãe. Feliz dia das mães para todas as mamães guerreiras. Obrigada Deus por nos capacitar diariamente nesse exercício! #felizdiadasmães❤️ - @sayuritorres on Instagram

tasting milk antony starr the homelander the boys lick

En el vientre de una madre había dos bebés. Uno le pregunta al otro: Tu crees que exista vida después del nacimiento ? El otro le responde, porque ? Por supuesto que sí. Tiene que existir algo después de nacer. Tal vez nos estamos preparando aquí para lo que vendrá después. Para nada, no lo creó contestó el primero. No hay vida después del nacimiento. Que clase de vida pudiera ser esa ? El segundo bebé dijo: Yo no sé, pero debe haber más luz allá. Tal vez podamos caminar con nuestras piernas y comer con nuestras bocas. Tal vez podamos usar otros sentidos que aún no entendemos todavía. El primer bebé le responde: Eso es absurdo, caminar es imposible y comer con nuestras bocas ? Eso es ridículo. Nuestro cordón umbilical nos provee los nutrientes y todo lo que necesitamos. Pero el cordón umbilical es tan corto, que vida después del parto queda fuera de toda lógica. El segundo bebé insistió: Bueno yo creó que si existe algo afuera y tal vez sea diferente a lo que tenemos aquí adentro. Tal vez ya no vayamos a necesitar el cordón umbilical más. El primero le dice: no tiene ningún sentido lo que dices, y más aún si es que hubiera vida allá porque nadie ha podido regresar aquí después ? El nacimiento es el fin de la vida, y después de nacer, no hay nada mas que oscuridad, silencio y olvido. No nos llevará a ninguna parte. Bueno, yo no sé, dijo el segundo bebé, pero ciertamente conoceremos a nuestra madre y ella cuidará de nosotros. El primer bebé respondió: Madre ? Tú en verdad crees en mamá ? Es de risa eso. Si mamá existiera entonces en donde está ella ahora ? El segundo bebé le dijo: Ella está rodeándonos a ambos siempre. Estamos dentro de ella. Somos parte de ella. Es aquí adentro de ella que vivimos. Sin ella nuestro mundo no pudiera existir. Y dijo el primer bebé: Pero si yo no puedo verla es lógico que ella no exista. A lo que el segundo bebé respondió: Algunas veces cuando estás en silencio y te concentras un poco y escuchas, puedes percibir su presencia, y puedes escuchar su dulce voz hablándonos desde arriba. Esto pudiera ser una de las más simples explicaciones de Dios. - @danaysuarez on Instagram

MANAGING MASTITIS . . Reposted from @earthmamaessence . . Mastitis youre a real fun thief. I love the metaphysics behind mastitis “Milk flows - when our tears flows” ⠀ ⠀ In no particular order / these are some natural ways to support Mastitis. ⠀ ⠀ ~ try & lie with baby as long as possible, skin to skin, allow unrestricted access to the breasts, rest as much as you can. Also changing position of holds ⠀ ~ true mastitis cold packs to the site ⠀ ~ Heat before expressing:feeding. While feeding massage the affected area towards the nipple ... massage in the shower morning & night massaging lumps and or area towards the nipple ⠀ ~ Feed every 2 hours for the first night making sure the breast doesn’t fill/become engorged. Breastfeed as often as possible, but DO NOT neglect its friend (the opp breast) . Offer the breast with mastitis first for most feeds, allow baby to completely drain that breast until offering to the other side. Obviously be careful not to create over supply making sure breast is draining ⠀ ~ double Probiotics (qiara) ⠀ ~ Pokeroot, Echinacea & Calendula tincture @blissful.herbs ⠀ ~ bella donna homeopathics⠀ ~ massage Clary Sage, Lavender, Geranium & Patchouli into affected area giving enough time between feeds to absorb ⠀ ~ take high dose vitamin c ~ Mastitis Blitz tea, compress herbs & massage balm @blissfulherbs⠀ ~ wrap fresh cold grated potato in a clean cotton cloth tie with string or rubber band & apply direct to the breast ⠀ ~ cease placenta tablets until it subsides ⠀ ~ drink a heck load of water I added lemon juice to support flushing of the body - @blissful.herbs on Instagram

O mercado consumidor feminino está ganhando um protagonismo cada vez maior. Desta vez é a Nike que acaba de lançar uma linha de roupas esportivas para gestantes, seguindo um movimento já iniciado pela Reebok e pela Gap. As pesquisas tiveram início há três anos, e envolveram mais de 150.000 ‘body scans’ para entender as mudanças pelas quais passa o corpo da mulher durante a gravidez. Além disso, foram feitos testes com mais de 70 tecidos diferentes para chegar ao produto final: uma coleção de 4 itens que “crescem” com a gravidez mas retornam à forma original para continuar sendo usadas pós-parto e funcionalidades específicas, como os tops que facilitam a amamentação. Um dos grandes propósitos desta linha - batizada de Nike M - é estimular as mulheres a continuarem se exercitando durante a gestação; mas claro que a marca também está de olho no crescimento da moda “athleisure”, que explodiu na pandemia. Nos últimos meses, as pessoas ficaram mais em casa e adotaram roupas simples, confortáveis e de baixa manutenção. O interessante foi observar que, na medida em que as restrições à circulação caíam, as pessoas começaram a sair de casa para ir aos shoppings e supermercados usando essas mesmas roupas, deixando no ar a dúvida se essa mudança de comportamento será permanente. #athleisure #activewear #nike #gestantes #maternity #maternidade #gestacao #gravidez #moda #pandemia #homewear - @oxygen.brasil on Instagram

Hi baby Charles ✨ born peacefully at home in the water this morning. His mom experienced a spectrum of births, having a c-section with her first baby, a medicated vaginal birth in the hospital with her second baby, and now an unmedicated home birth with her third baby. Dad said this was the best experience yet (: Mama was well supported by her husband & doula who did everything from clean up her kitchen, rub her back & offered counter pressure during contractions, and postpartum, took care of her two older girls by braiding their hair and making them something to eat while mama enjoyed bonding with her son for the first time. #homebirth #waterbirth #secondaryVBAC #unmedicatedbirth #delayedcordclamping #doulasupport - @mayathemidwife on Instagram

Then.... Now. 11 years. Emilee Micah has been possibly the most prayed-for baby in our family. After 3 miscarriages, a complicated and unsure pregnancy, a very early and traumatic birth, a 45 day NICU stint (while recovering from a Csection with Matt on tour, and a 4 year old at home .... 😰), and some even-still lingering consequences of prematurity and delayed neural development - this girl has been DILIGENTLY prayed for! But we get to see firsthand how the Lord is answering our prayers. We get to experience and witness what a compassionate, loving, intelligent, strong, creative, talented, sensitive, hilarious, beautiful young lady she’s absolutely growing up to be. It gives us more roots to our faith. Our prayers are actively being answered. Emilee Micah is 11 today. Watch out world! We’re getting her ready for you. She’s going to change you for the better!! Happy Birthday, my baby girl! I’m so glad we get to be the ones to call your ours. #Happy11thBirthday #imsogladididntthrowyououtawindow #beautiful #preemiestrong #theyareweakbutHeisstrong #Jesuslovesme #watchoutworld - @butlermattandashlee on Instagram

Do you tend to stare at the bottles as they fill? Watching the slow drip drip while pumping may actually inhibit milk production. Some families have noticed that covering the bottles with baby socks can lead to better output--and less stress.

Nós mães precisamos de pessoas que nos incentivem a amamentar nossos pequenos e não de pessoas perguntando se a criança não esta muito grande pra mamar ainda. Hoje no Brasil só 39% das crianças mamam exclusivamente leite materno ate 6 meses, muitas mães desistem logo no inicio, muitas vezes pela dor nos primeiros dias, muitas vezes por falta de incentivo, muitas vezes porque acham que o leite materno não é suficiente. Aqui vai um conselho, se voce puder amamente seu pequeno ate quando quiser, não deixe as pessoas te dizerem o que fazer nesse sentido, somente voce sabe o que é melhor pra voce e seu filho. E pessoas, por favor, guardem seus palpites para vocês mesmos, deixem as mães serem mães, deixem elas errarem, deixem elas acertarem, deixem elas escolherem o que é melhor pros filhos delas. Hoje 01/08 começa a semana de apoio a amamentação, então apoiem!! 🙏🏼❤️ #amamentação #apoioaamamentacao #semanadaamamentação #breastfeeding - @tiedttiedt on Instagram

Postpartum Realness ✨ 📷 @elsas_wholesomelife It takes at least 6/8 weeks for your uterus to shrink down to your size before.... wearing a postpartum belly wrap or band to support daily, a traditional wrap or compression tights, Regular uterus massages from your midwife or doula. You can even massage your belly yourself, a nice self care ritual for healing. What did you do postpartum that you had to learn about on the job and know one told you ? *** usually If no one tells you it means it didn’t happen to them . so often I hear clients and friends say well know one told me about that... they are not meant to tell you it’s a journey a discovery that most of the time you learn on the day your doing it. it’s your responsibility to read about all options and ways thru labour and postpartum 🤰🏼🤰🏽🤰🏾🤰🏿 - @shanaythedoula on Instagram

breastfeeding breast

3 years ago I birthed my little man at home. The strength and determination mixed with the intention and absolute surrender it took was surreal. I didn’t know I had that part of me that was born that day. It was only after this totally empowering homebirth experience did I launch my coaching business and make the decision to not go back to my secure job. My son has taught me so much about surrender and strength and as I am approaching the birth of my first book I am leaning into this surrender. Letting go of the need to get it right and just sit in the gratitude of this experience. To my little man Happy birthday darling soul thank you for choosing us @manfulnessmen - @thequeenofconfidence on Instagram

Happy breastfeeding week! Here I am sharing with you our story. Our breastfeeding journey started off a bit rocky. I had no idea that something as natural as this could have any challenges- in my head you just pop the baby on the boob and let them drink ☺️ well, little did I know! Leela had trouble latching, and we had to use a silicone nipple for the first few days. This was extremely stressful because we had to keep sanitizing it and make sure that we had the right size and fit that worked for her. I was already dreading the idea of continuing like this for months. Until, one morning, a few days after we reached home from the hospital, I removed the nipple soon after she started nursing, and she latched on to me directly. You have no idea how much joy I felt that moment! From then on, we threw those nipples away and never looked back at them. We still had some challenges though, with a quick let-down, a lot of supply, and a tongue-tie, which we got fixed when she was 3 weeks old. Since then, we have been sailing this journey together smoothly (for the most. Still some other challenges along the way like biting etc, but all in phases). Breastfeeding now is my quiet time with my girl. I absolutely love it. I feel it is a true privilege to be able to breastfeed her. It has been almost 11 months, and going strong. I imagine myself to be that mama who still breastfeeds her 4 year old haha, that is, if she is still interested by then. If you are a breastfeeding mom and struggling, firstly, pat yourself on the back. Breastfeeding is hard work and a real commitment! You are doing an amazing job. Secondly, there are always phases and stages which can be difficult, but, help is always there. Seek help of professionals when you need it. Thirdly, enjoy the journey! It is a special one, that only YOU can offer your baby. . . . . . #breastfeeding #breastmilk #breastfeed #mamasmilk #milkjugs #breastfeedingmom #breastfeedingweek #legendairymilk #breastisbest - @lakshyayoga on Instagram

Today is the start of NZ Mental Health Awareness Week, and it’s so crucial that we highlight the importance of being open about your needs with the people in your life, over the next 7 days but across the board; even if it’s just a “I’m really not having a good day, but I don’t wanna talk about it right now” so that your partner/parents/friends can be mindful of you and therefore will act accordingly to support you (in whatever form suits your situation). ✨ ✨ Tomorrow I will hear the results of my biopsies and be informed which line of treatment I will need to pursue. As this all happens we are preparing as a family to say goodbye to our beloved matriarch who will depart from this world far earlier than any of us were ready for; throughout all this I have to still be a mama and hold it together for my little one who needs me always in all ways. Luna and I are taking a moment today to just rest, relax and recharge together in our safe space before a week that may prove to be one of the hardest of my life. 🌜✨🌚✨🌛 #reimaginewellbeingtogether #MHAWNZ #HeTirohangaAnamata #whanau @mhfnz #lunarainmc - @ashleymcinroe on Instagram

“Infertility robbed me of my joy. Infertility removed the hope I had and replaced it with fear. Infertility took up so much of my time. Years that I will never get back. But it gave me something as well. It gave me the chance to be there from the very beginning. To know my children from the very start. To hold a photo of my babies when they were nothing more than a few little cells, and pure potential. To be aware of the exact moment when my child’s life began.” -@me2books . .

Shared originally by @audiebombdotcom This was the first spot I nursed you in our home when we brought you home the first time. We shared this moment, it wasnt quite the same moment I had with your sister, but despite the noise and the laughter it was the same amount of quiet. It was still peaceful. It was still moving. I didnt know I would be feeling these things all over again. I didnt know that I would once again be trying so hard for something I didnt quite get the first time. I didnt know that in that moment, with your sister next to us asking me all the questions a new big sisters ask that we would still be here almost one year later with the same amount of noise and the same amount of calm. When I put you down to sleep tonight as an 11 month old crazy bright eyed boy, Ill pick you back up in the morning a one year old with a new chapter to start writing. I dont know how much longer these moments will be a part of our day, but I know that the ones that we have had in this last year will be cherished forever. ♡ ♡ ♡ #plussizebreastfeeding #plussizemom #1yearold #boymom #girlmom #1stbirthday #aprilbabies #plussizemommy #breastfeeding #milkmama - @plussizebreastfeeding on Instagram

TW sexual abuse, religion - I was raised with shame about my body, especially my breasts. From the time I was in middle school, family members told me I was a slut and I was sinful for having large breasts. That I was “tempting priests” with my body and I had to “cover up” for God. I never understood it. Didn’t God make my body? Didn’t priests know that? Why do priests get tempted by children? Then I grew up and I learned more. Then I had a child. And I finally felt like God did indeed make me in Her image. And that in feeding my child with my body was an act of The Divine. Breastfeeding has been devastatingly hard at times. But it has also been outstandingly healing. Of wounds I didn’t even know I had. Of religious trauma. Of body shaming. Of slut shaming. Of sexual assault. Of childhood sexual abuse. Of family judgment. And of self inflicted injury because of all of the above. My big fat boobies may cause others discomfort, but I no longer give a shit. My body created and nourished life. Big fat boobies and all. (Inspired by @miaomalley @plusmommy) #worldbreastfeedingweek #wbw2020 #plussizebreastfeeding #breastfeeding - @plussizebreastfeeding on Instagram

HAPPY WORLD BREASTFEEDING WEEK!!! This is the beginning of a month long celebration of the joy, the pain, the challenges & the triumphs of breastfeeding. Mother Nature is deeply invested in breastfeeding & we are uniquely designed to feed our young. Breastmilk provides information, not just nutrition- it’s a complex form of communication that is dependent on the endocrine system, the emotional body, the brain and the physical body. _ Besides the wonderful life long bond & deeply rooted connection you establish with your baby, breastfeeding also encourages the uterus to contract (from 500-1000 times it’s normal size to accommodate your baby in utero) back to its normal size. Breastfeeding can burn up to 600 calories daily- so you need to eat & stay well hydrated to maximize production. Breastfeeding is also linked to lower lower incidences of breast cancer later in life. _ We’d like to honor the serious challenges that can make it difficult & nearly impossible for some people to manage breastfeeding. These are the result of policy gaps & a culture that doesn’t honor birthing people, the sacred birth process, motherhood or womxn’s bodies. Some of the manifestations include stress and anxiety, challenges at home or work; extended separation of birthing person & baby at birth; having to go back to work shortly after birth, difficulty latching that results in pain for the birthing person and frustration for both mother and baby; & low milk production. These issues also exacerbated by existential stress, PPD, dehydration, & poor diet. Engorgement & improper latching are two of the most common hurdles to comfortable breastfeeding. _ Many people give up breastfeeding after the first few weeks postpartum due to pain, discomfort & no federal paid maternity leave. Support and community is key. Having healthy models for breastfeeding and advocates can increase breastfeeding success. We’ll be sharing tips, tools, anecdotal stories and inspiration as we honor the incredible work our bodies do to feed our young. _ Breastfeeding is charged for so many of us. Welcoming your stories & feelings. 📷 @mrjustinervin of @ashleygraham 🙏🏽 #mamaglow @mamaglow - @nneka_symister on Instagram

Can you imagine the experience of Black parenthood if racism didnt exist? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Every year it seems like there’s more and more research that confirms the risk that Black men, women and children take when we engage with the racist institutions that are supposed to serve us, from the moment we enter this world — if we’re so lucky to even make it. The level of stress that comes with the uncertainty of our own survival, of our childrens survival, isnt just unacceptable, its part of what puts us at risk for health issues in the first place. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ To the Black parents out there, never stop doing everything you can to create the best possible outcomes for your family. Get that Black o.b. Fight for a Black pediatrician. If someone isnt racially conscious or culturally competent you have to wonder, are they really competent enough to serve you at all? · · · · #blackhealthmatters #thewellwithin #consciousparenting #slowparenting #mindfulparenting #intentionalparenting #antiracist #blackmomwellness #blackmommagic #blackmomsblog #blackmomblogger #blackdoctorsmatter - @jenilebrooks on Instagram

(VEJAM A ÚLTIMA FOTO) ✨SMAM - Semana Mundial do Aleitamento Materno✨ Era 26.03.16. Às 21h25 ela nascera. Eu renascia ali, naquele momento. Em meio ao êxtase por parir em casa e quebrar todos os protocolos do sistema, eu jamais imaginara que o mais difícil estava por vir. Por volta das 21h30 já estávamos no outro quarto. Imprinting 💦 Ainda não tinha parido a placenta, eu sentia o cordão pulsando em minhas pernas, nos envolvendo como laço que jamais será desfeito. Te coloquei no peito. Eu achava que sabia! Eu acreditava que só bastava colocar no peito e tudo fluiria. Eu estava muito enganada. Naquele dia começaria a nossa saga que durou EXATOS 54 DIAS. Eu jamais me esquecerei desse número. Foram 54 dias de tortura, de negação, de não me aceitar por não saber amamentar, de dedicação, de muita DOR. Mesmo com o mundo contra, eu jamais te ofereci qualquer outro alimento, filha. Eu não desisti. Eu sabia que ia me superar. Era difícil vê-la chorando e gritar junto quando ela grudava em meu peito! Era um misto de leite, sangue e lágrimas, literalmente. Um mamilo que quase necrosou, uma mente que não estava saudável, uma mãe que só queria ser capaz de nutrir sua cria sem dor. Eu me questionava todos os dias se aquela tortura iria passar. As inúmeras idas à Santa Monica eram em vão. Porque lá eu me sentia segura, eu aprendia. E ao cruzar a porta de vidro eu desaprendia tudo. O que faltava? MENTE SÃ! Foram 54 dias, quase DOIS MESES com o mamilo lacerado, aberto, sangrando, purulento, e no 55° dia, como mágica, nos conectamos. E, mais uma vez, vencemos o sistema. Desde então, apoiamos, incentivamos, lutamos juntos a outras mães que querem amamentar ou que por algum motivo não conseguiram amamentar. Estamos juntas. Sororidade sempre 💕 Ninna mamou 6 meses EXCLUSIVAMENTE. Foi amamentada até os 2a3m. Que orgulho que eu sinto de mim. Da gente. À minha rede de apoio: minha eterna gratidão. Às mamães ou futuras mamães: se informem. Não deixem que ninguém tire isso de você! Você capaz! Você não tem pouco leite! Seu bebê não está com fome! Você vai conseguir! EU ACREDITO EM VOCÊ! #SMAM #aleitamentomaterno - @brendaoliveiramakeup_ on Instagram

What would you say if I told you these photos of identical twins were taken on the same day when both boys were 6 days old? 👀 . 👶🏼➡️👶🏼 Twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is a pretty rare condition that can occur in identical twins (or even triplets) who share a placenta. . 📸 This amazing photo comes from @teddyandronnietttssurvivors (visit her page for more on their unique story and where they are now!) . So what exactly is TTTS, how is it diagnosed, and how is it treated? (This info comes from Cincinnati Childrens website) . 💕 TTTS occurs when abnormal blood vessel connections form in the placenta and allow blood to flow unevenly between the babies. This results in one twin (the donor) becoming dehydrated and not having enough amniotic fluid and the other (the recipient) to develop high blood pressure and produce more urine, thereby overfilling the amniotic sac. . *Fun fact: amniotic fluid is just babys pee!* . 💔 This leads to poor growth in the donor (so clearly the twin in the bottom photo) and can sometimes lead to heart failure in the recipient. . Diagnosis is confirmed with ultrasound, fetal MRI, and fetal echocardiogram. There are 5️⃣ stages, with 1 being the most mild and 5 being the death of one or both twins. . 🤰🏽 After diagnosis, the babies will need to be monitored frequently for signs that the condition is worsening. In some scenarios, fetal surgery may be required to save one or both babies. And in many scenarios, it may be necessary to deliver the babies early (the twins in this photo were born around 30 weeks) in which case, babies will require a NICU stay. . After birth, the babies may have mild to serious complications from the syndrome as well as from being born prematurely. . . . #askthenicunurse #nicunurse #neonatalnurse #laboranddeliverynurse #nicumom #nicubaby #nicubabies #miraclebabies #micropreemie #newbornbaby #babynumber1 #babyhealth #babycomingsoon #pregnancyhealth #firsttimemama #momtobe2019 #pregnancyeducation #babyeducation #childbirth #ilovebabies #laboranddelivery #1stbaby #1sttimemom #twintotwintransfusionsyndrome #TTTS #tttssurvivors #identicaltwins #twins #twinpregnancy #pregnantwithtwins - @ask.the.nicu.nurse on Instagram

Seconda ecografia. Dovete sapere che della seconda ecografia ho solo un paio di foto e un mini video, dove mentre il ginecologo ci fa sentire il battito, io, anziché stare in silenzio e ascoltare faccio una risata forte forte, sarà stata l’emozione che per la prima volta non si è trasformata in lacrime ... l’unico video che ho di questo momento è il suono in sottofondo del suo cuoricino con, in sottofondo, la mia risata. Ogni volta che assisto all’ecografia mi sento il cuore uscire dal petto, ho le gambe che mi tremano e la voce che viene a mancare. E poi, ho sempre quegli occhioni verdi, lucidi ludici di Gianmaria che ci guardano come se fossimo la cosa più bella della sua vita.

BERKAH ATAU MUSIBAH ? Pernah gak kita pas lagi kena musibah, keselnya minta ampun ampe kadang nyalahin Alloh, kenapa sih ngasih cobaan gini - gini amat ?. Ini cerita gua beberapa bulan lalu. Sekitar bulan januari tanpa di duga - duga setelah beberapa tahun bekerja akhirnya tumbang juga, gua harus opname di rumah sakit karena ada benjolan di pundak kanan gua. Pada saat itu sempet kesel sih, selain harus keluar materi yang gak sedikit, sakitnya juga bikin gak karuan. Selama kurang lebih seminggu harus menginap di rumah sakit, ya... sakit, ya... bosen, ya... segalanya lah... sampe pada akhirnya gua menyadari bahwa ini bukan musibah tapi ini adalah berkah... 1. Di kasih kesempatan untuk istirahat 2. Ketemu teman - teman lama 3. Pacaran sama mantan pacar 😁 4. Quality time sama anak - anak Banyak berkah dibalik musibah sih ternyata... yah, gua termasuk orang yang suka kesel sih kalo pas lagi kena musibah, cuma kadang - kadang kalo di telaah ternyata musibah itu adalah nikmat yang tersembunyi. Tapi, kalo ditanya terus, mau sakit lagi ?, jelas jawabannya pasti tidak!, cuma mungkin musibah pada saat itu menjadi pelajaran yang berharga buat gua tentang belajar bersyukur apapun kondisinya. - @firman.triandani on Instagram

✨ What an EPIC birth story ✨ ... Birth story share! Bre and Robs birth story is one for the record books and probably one of the fastest Ive witnessed. On the morning of August 22 at 10:16 am the birth team received a text that Bres labor had started. Rob sent us a photo of her on her ball on hands and knees. The midwife @birthingblyssmidwifery told her to eat and relax and maybe take a walk later and to keep in touch. At 11:23 the message read water broke. They checked to confirm it was amniotic fluid...and it was. They let us know at 11:34 am. At 11:51 Rob texted and said feels like she needs to push. I was quickly gathering my clothes, gear etc. to head that way. Then all of the sudden at 11:57 am the text read baby is here which was accompanied by a photo of Bre in the bathtub and baby emerging. Luckily, @iamhaizehawkerosen made it to assist with baby being born in the tub and the transition to the bed. Of course, this was a precipitous birth and very rare for a first time mom especially. My first feeling and reaction as her birth photographer and part of the team is disappointment to have missed being there to capture that moment and all leading up to it. Nevertheless, I headed that way to document all the beautiful afters of birth. When I arrived she was birthing the placenta and being supported by Rob, with their beloved dog, Foxy, nearby. The cord burning ceremony was sacred and sweet. Birth never ceases to amaze and surprise. I am honored to have documented the unique and inspiring birth of their little boy, Hunter and to be a part of the birth team. You are amazing Bre! @msbreee_ Repost by @littleplumphoto little plum photography los angeles #birthwithoutfear #bradleymethod #homebirth #homebirth2020 #thesincerestoryteller #birthbecomesher #birthbecomesyou #birthphotogs #whynothome #lookslikefilm #empoweredbirthproject #empoweredbirth #birthphotography #losangelesphotographer #birth Shared from @2lifedoula - @thepositivepregnancyjourney on Instagram

Who needs a filter when their is so much beauty behind pregnancy? 6 months to 8 months. I just love to watch you grow. . . I’ve gained 19 pounds so far and have 6 weeks and some change left. It’s incredible to see how much your body is capable of as your creation grows inside your womb. I’ve realized throughout this pregnancy that I’ve learned to let my fears of my past pregnancy go, and have learned to trust, love, listen, and confide in my body. . . My husband and I have grown SO much as a couple, and as individuals throughout this journey. We will be cherishing these last weeks till we meet our rainbow baby 🌈 #mothershape - - #fashionoregnancy 😍 📸 @????

“Twin life .. there is only one me . Tandem breastfeeding is tough. Juggling two babies at once IS not that difficult either . You have to have Pateince to get it all done but working as a team I have always seen posts and personally experienced shaming for breastfeeding as nudity but i see it as a good source for my daughters . I don’t see anything wrong with showing a real photo. This is life . Why is this not normalized ? I’m proud i am able to provide nutritional food source that is completely natural to them . Fed is best , from breast or a can. I made Todd sit back while i handled the girls this morning in preparation for him going back to work because i need to get in a routine of doing it on my own , I’ll get this down soon enough but I’m happy he is home to capture these moments.” @gypsy.roo - @bumpdated on Instagram

Does baby’s microbiome begin to form in utero? ⁠ ⁠ Prior to a decade ago, the prevailing belief was that a human fetus is sterile, with the first “seeding” of baby’s microbiome occurring at birth (and not before). ⁠ ⁠ More recent research has challenged this idea, finding the presence of bacteria in amniotic fluid and first-pass meconium. This suggests the potential to influence the developing fetal immune system before a baby is even born.⁠ ⁠ So, regardless of a vaginal or cesarean birth, optimizing the maternal microbiome is needed.⁠ ⁠ #microbiome #vaginalseeding #vaginalbirth #bellybirth #cesareanbirth #cesarean #birth #homebirth #hospitalbirh #probiotic #momtobe2020 #nourishmentisneeded #thisisneeded ⁠ ⁠ - @nourishmentisneeded on Instagram

He’s here guys😍!!! I still remain the only princess in the house🥰. From the time my water broke, our new edition arrived about 26 hours later at 9:45am.⁣ ⁣ There are many reasons we considered a home water birth. Some were simply being in the comfort of our home surrounded by family, not being flushed with meds & setting the atmosphere the way we felt was suitable for us versus a hospital setting.⁣ ⁣ Everyone asks how I would do this with absolutely no medications. Well, Besides the fact of god being in control, there’s an indescribable strength that invades and takes over a women when she’s giving birth. A strength you can’t explain but naturally intertwines with the brain for the preparation of birth. ⁣ ⁣ The connection you feel with a natural birthed child is extremely different from a medicated labor. The feeling was priceless and certainly different than my previous birthing experience which took place at a hospital. Though I’d be lying if I tell you all this was an easy process, I’d strongly recommend any healthy woman to aim at a home birth. Yes it was long, painful, and I at one point asked for the nurses to drive me to a hospital when I thought I couldn’t handle the pain any longer. With the encouragement and putting my mind over my body, I stayed and in the end it was well worth it in the end. @taiwo_smith - @blackmomskillingit on Instagram

Dear Postpartum Body, First of all I don’t hate you. On the contrary I’m so so proud of you. You have been through a lot. You grew a whole human. You kept her warm and safe and let her grow until she was ready to go it on her own. You made room for her, then let her go, with selfless bravery. You nourished her as long as you could and I’m proud of that too. You didn’t fail. You did amazing things. You might be different than you used to be, but you aren’t ugly, damaged, or scarred. You are marked with a roadmap of the life you created. Postpartum body, you are beautiful, and I am proud of you. . 📸 @raising.rowan_ ⁣⁣. .

Há 01 ano atrás, ainda grávida com 39 semanas, após levantar da cama e perceber que minha bolsa tinha estourado e havia uma colocação esverdeada (meconio) assustei e corri para fazer a cesariana: naquele momento nascia meu bebê BENICIO, cheio de personalidade, saudável, esperto e muito energético. Benicio nasceu com sede da vida e de descobrir tudo que pode ter, por isso tinha muita dificuldade para dormir, não queria perder um só momento. Foi uma longa jornada nesse 01 ano: noites e noites sem dormir, peito, trocas de fraldas, engatinhou com 06 meses, a introdução alimentar (adora um feijão), começou a andar com 9 meses😲, as primeiras palavrinhas (uma delas foi papai🥴) e a aprender a dormir a noite toda (isso veio só agora🤪🤪🤪pensa como fica a mãe 🧟‍♀️🧟‍♀️). Benicio é pura vida, luta pelo que quer, da bronca em todo mundo e não tem medo de se arriscar (se joga de qualquer lugar!!) Só tenho a agradecer pela vida e saúde desse meu amor BENICIO, PARABENS FILHO PELO SEU 01 ANO!!!😍😍😍 - @dra.lucianareis on Instagram

Bringing a new life into this world feels insane right now. It’s hard to describe being in a delivery room while my hometown was burning. It hurts and I’m pissed off. I’m scared but I’m happy to have a new son. I’m excited to have kids. I’m proud they are mixed race and I need to learn how to parent them correctly when it comes to these issues. Issues I’ve never had to truly experience. I was born in Minneapolis and raised in St. Paul. I am very proud to be from there. I grew up in a white neighborhood but went to a diverse school. Black culture has influenced me in almost every aspect of life. We(white people) gain so much and barely give back. The destruction hurts but what did we expect? It’s our fault. Change is way past due. Donate money. Donate time. Teach if you are qualified. And most importantly, listen, learn, and follow through. If you live in a city that got damaged, go help clean it up. #BlackLivesMatter - @mac_huelster on Instagram

There are times when he’s extremely fussy and just wants to be held all day. Knowing that you are someone’s safe space can be both exhilarating and exhausting. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This is why I love my @SollyBaby wraps. They allow me to keep my little bean close so that I can comfort him when he needs extra snuggles but also gives me the freedom to get things done when I need to. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There are plenty of studies and articles explaining the many benefits of babywearing and honestly, with reasons like, it helps to calm him and can help with enhancing his development, I’m all for wearing my little. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The fabric is quality. It’s super light and stretchy so we’re both comfortable. It also washes well which is a major key with an infant. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve been using my Solly baby wraps since he was a newborn and I would highly recommend for any new parents. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #babywearing #sollybaby #newmama #newparent #newborn #wrap #slings - @definingdevonnie on Instagram

Quão forte pode ser uma mulher, mesmo quando ela duvida que pode ser. Ela se volta para si e mesmo desacreditando ser possível, ela continua. Ela instintivamente entende e deixa seu corpo fazer a parte dele. E a dor vem e ela a segura como sua melhor amiga, porque assim ela é e ela entende que sem essa amiga não tem como a sua filha vir. E ela tem medo e faz desse medo sua força e percorre mais um pouco a caminhada que é necessária trilhar. Quão forte pode ser uma mulher. Ela acha que não consegue mas mesmo assim prossegue. Ela não desiste mesmo dizendo que vai. E trilha mais um pouco dessa estrada. E se agarra ao que acredita mesmo quando não acredita mais. Quão forte pode ser uma mulher. Entre as contrações sorri. Entre uma dor e outra se alimenta. Ela caminha porque para ela é muito pior deitar. E ela caminha porque seu corpo pede e ela aceita continuar. Quão forte pode ser uma mulher. Uma fortaleza de resiliência e vontade. Uma fortaleza que urra na dor e chora e espera entre uma contração e outra a filha chegar. E quando em uma força instintiva sua filha finalmente chega, ela abraça e novamente chora, um choro de alegria e vitória por se descobrir fortaleza quando minutos antes pensava que não poderia mais prosseguir. E o choro da filha se une ao dela. O choro do encontro e do reconhecimento. Porque eram apenas uma no corpo da mulher transformada em mãe. E agora são duas, mas continuam uma no seio que amamenta e sustenta e as une novamente. Quão forte pode ser uma mulher. E que privilégio tenho eu em poder testemunhar pela segunda vez essa mulher se agigantar para trazer ela, apenas ela, sua filha para o aconchego e a proteção de seu abraço💖 Mãe: @nutridanielavieira Obstetra: @dramarinamunaretto Doula: @carolpsr.assistenciamaterna Hospital: @ninhosocimed Video e fotografia: @kauanamirandafotografia Texto: @obstetra_bianka_manhaes Corre lá no IGTV pra ver o vídeo e de emocionar💕 - @dramarinamunaretto on Instagram

I’m sitting in a quiet home with a moment to myself for what feels like the first time in forever. A magical tiny miraculous deep breath, a rare perfect gift for this moment of reflection. Here we are. 4 months, 4 months old. This year long journey is coming to close, and yet our life together is just beginning. What a year. I went to the depths and came back with this beautiful soul in my arms. It took everything.

Hace dos días tuve el placer y honor de asistir al #parto de unos queridos amigos para tomar fotos y vídeos de este momento tan alucinante y mágico. . Hace poco, una sabia amiga mía @astrosenmovimiento me dijo de forma muy acertada que las mujeres somos portales... y no puedo estar más de acuerdo con este statement. . Muchas gracias a Elies y Aurora por su generosidad, a la espectacular matrona @mujeressabias.matronas y sobre todo a la pequeña Vera por llegar al mundo con los brazos abiertos, alcanzando hacia el espacio. No puedo esperar a verme de nevo en una situación como esta, porque como bien dice Gema el parto siempre sorprende . #birth #birhtphotography #naciemiento #partorespetado #partonatural #matrona #birhtwithoutfear #dougla #motherhood #mynameismama #mama #womenempoweringwomen - @raquelfonfria on Instagram

𝓞𝓾𝓻 𝓵𝓲𝓽𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓫𝓾𝓷𝓭𝓵𝓮 𝓸𝓯 𝓳𝓸𝔂! Sept 3, 2020 - I surprised the hubby with a 3D/4D ultrasound for him to finally see our little baby girl. 💕 These times our tough, we never got to share our firsts with our princess together due to pandemic restrictions in clinics here in Vancouver, but it’s all right. We are blessed and thankful still knowing that steps are taken to make sure we are protected and safe. 💞 Hence, this moment was so special! We both saw our baby girl’s face for the first time, heard her very very loud and strong heartbeat for the first time - together as mom & dad. Every thing was just precious. 🙏🏼 Ahhhhh cannot wait to see your beautiful face in person, smell your armpits and feet baby! 😘😘😘 P.S. I’m on my 34th week already and this momma is procrastinating!!! Excited and nervous at the same time. Wishing all the mommas and soon to be mommas a blessed Friday 💕💕💕 - @jeanloves_ on Instagram

“A mark for every breath you took, every blink, every sleepy yawn. One for every time you sucked your thumb, waved hello, closed your eyes and slept in the most perfect darkness. One for every time you had the hiccups, one for every dream you dreamed inside me.⁣ ⁣ It isn’t very pretty anymore. Some may say it’s ugly. That’s ok. It was your home. It was where I grew to love you, where I laid my hand as I dreamed about who you were and who you would be. It held you until my arms could, and for that I will always find something beautiful in it.” — Cassie Fox⁣ ⁣ ⁣beautiful photo @lophotobirth⁣ __________ #artofvisuals #qtalbums #album #artbook #printyourphotos #pregnancy #maternity #pregnant #pregnancyphotos #maternityphotos #maternityphotography #gravida #ensaiogestante #mulher #family #familyphotography #familia #familyphotographer #motherhood #fotografiagestante #gestante #childhoodunplugged #portrait #lifestyle #motherhooduprising #thatsdarling - @qtalbums on Instagram

MECÔNIO Os bebês são nutridos e oxigenados dentro do útero pela placenta via cordão umbilical, no entanto, apesar de não ingerirem comida no útero, ele ingere outros materiais durante o crescimento fetal: células epiteliais intestinais, lanugo (cabelo), muco, líquido amniótico, bile e água. E tudo isso dá origem ao mecônio. Embora não seja tecnicamente o mesmo que cocô, ele é considerado a primeira evacuação do bebê e está presente nas fezes por alguns dias após o nascimento. ⠀ É bastante comum em trabalhos de parto mais longos ou com bebês de gestação mais longa, mas não significa necessariamente uma emergência médica, desde que a quantidade de líquido esteja adequada (para que dilua o mecônio e este não se torne espesso) e os batimentos cardíacos do bebê estejam dentro dos padrões de normalidade. Na maioria dos casos, nem a gestante nem a equipe médica ficará sabendo da presença do mecônio no líquido amniótico, a não ser que a bolsa estoure. Se a causa do mecônio for sofrimento fetal, isso será atestado através da alteração da frequência cardíaca fetal. ⠀ Importante: não é possível constatar a presença de mecônio na ecografia. O exame que possibilita avaliar a cor do líquido amniótico sem romper a bolsa se chama AMNIOSCOPIA e só é possível de ser feito quando já há alguma dilatação do colo do útero. Ou seja, indicação de mecônio sem dilatação é mais uma das muitas desculpas. #boraparir ⠀ Já se inscreveu para o INTENSIVÃO BORA PARIR do dia 06 a 09 de outubro?

My Rishu inside my tummy and finally outside exactly 6 days ago 😇 - @rcranita on Instagram

We all know how incredible breastfeeding is, but we are also aware of how tough the journey can be. 🤱 It truly is a learnt skill for both mama and baby! Midwife Aliza from @bumpnbub is sharing some of the amazing benefits of breastfeeding, to remind us that if you can and or choose to - the benefits are truly astounding💖! Here are a few benefits that research shows: 1.) Heightens bonding (for both mama & bub) 2.) Breastmilk adapts to babies needs (e.g when they are sick, our bodies create extra white blood cells to feed to our babies, to get rid of illness)⭐️ 3.) Lowers risk of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) 4.) Accessible anytime at the perfect temperature💫 5.) Environmentally friendly 6.) Its free! (hooray!)😍 7.) Decreases bubs risk of: - Food allergies - Excema - Childhood obesity - Diabetes - Asthma - childhood leukaemia + more! 8.) Lowers risk of cancers for Mama (of breast and ovarian cancers in later life) 9.) Reduced rates of maternal depression How incredible?! Did you know these benefits mama? What’s your favourite reason for breastfeeding? 🌸 #Haakaa #Haakaanz @esmes._.mummy - @haakaanz on Instagram

I woke up at 4:30 yesterday morning with my first actual contraction and by 10:05pm I was a mama to the most perfect 7lb 3oz little boy in the entire world 💙 We got to the hospital around lunch time and by 5pm I was begging for an epidural, which I didn’t get until 8:45 and was already 10cm lol. Basically, I got the epidural just to push but lemme tell ya it was worth it, even if only for an hour and even if it did only work on my left side 😂 Kasen was doing SO good after delivery - his oxygen was staying in the high 80s, so they let me hold him for 20 minutes before they took him to the nicu. Best 20 minutes of my life. He’s still doing great in the nicu with his oxygen staying in the high 80s and low 90s, and he’s eating really well too! We are hoping he will stay this way and be able to sleep with us tonight 💙 I have never been so in love in my whole life. Being a mama is the best and it hasn’t even been 24 hours. I can’t wait to share the rest of my life with him. - @michaelashadix on Instagram

I never thought Id post this picture to be honest. Im not someone who outwardly shares about breastfeeding. Not because theres anything wrong with it, far from it, more because of how other people make me feel, or how Id make them feel. Im posting because its National Breastfeeding Week, and I wanted to share our journey in case it could help others. Feeding Iris wasnt easy like you hope or dream. Not so much because of pain, but because Iris had a cows milk protein allergy. This meant, for the 17 months I fed her for, I cut dairy out of my diet entirely. And let me tell you, dairy is in a hell of a lot of things you wouldnt even imagine. There was a lot of ingredient reading! Then I had an oversupply, so would find it not ideal feeding her in public. Lets just say, I needed a lot of muslins and was forever changing my top. I pumped when I wasnt feeding to try and manage my oversupply, but was probably only making it worse. This time round, Im not pumping, and still have the same oversupply. Poor Élodie guzzles lik a 50 year old man in the pub, causing reflux 🙈, but so far, thankfully no signs of cmpa. Not pumping means nobody else can help with feeding at all, so the 10pm bottle Gav would give Iris feels like a luxury I no longer have 😂. Feeding my two girls is a privilege many women dont get to have, be it that they long for children they cant have, illness prevents, issues with feeding etc. And so I am truly grateful I am able, with sleepless nights and milky tops too. I am proud of myself for persisting and continuing when there were times I was ready to stop. Thinking of all those who cant breastfeed but want to. Encouraging those who are but are finding it challenging. And high fiving anyone who gave it a go but decided it wasnt for them. We all need to do whats best for us, baby will be happy with a full belly either way 👌 - @kellylouisephillips8 on Instagram

Quédate cerca, pero déjala tranquila. Ofrécele agua, comida hecha en casa, un té caliente. Llévale flores, llévale ánimos, llévale abrazos, llévale amor. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Deja afuera las dudas, la inseguridad, el miedo. Si ella no te los pide, deja afuera tus consejos, tus opiniones, tus juicios. Si no sabes de lactancia, por favor no digas nada, a menos que le digas que se ve hermosa, que la admiras, que está haciéndolo bien. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ No le pidas cargar a su bebé; espera a que ella lo solicite, no se lo quites de los brazos. Mejor quita los platos del lavadero, la ropa sucia del canasto, la carga mental. Quítale la sed, el hambre, la soledad. Quítale las dudas sobre sí misma, porque te aseguro que está dudando. Dale el almuerzo en la boca mientras ella amamanta; tal vez no ha comido un bocado caliente en todo el día. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Su bebé lo tiene todo, no necesita más brazos ni regalos, pero ella quizá sí. Quizá necesita que le regales tiempo, ayuda en casa, calma, disponibilidad. Tal vez apoyo profesional en lactancia, un par de manos extra o sólo un oído que la pueda escuchar. Envíale comida, mándale un mensaje, ofrécele tu presencia, tu paciencia, tu disposición de acompañarle sin juzgar... 🤍 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ :: Fuente: Natalia de Biegler :: :: Imagen: Motherly :: . . . #coco #cocoalmacen #cocoalmacenderegalos #bebe #accesoriosbebe #regalosparabebes #tiendabebe #babyshower #embarazada #futuramama #mamaybebe #hechoamano #hechoconamor #hechoenuruguay - @coco.almacen on Instagram

She is small, solid, healthy, and I love her to pieces❤ 🌞 @heleinalouisse and I are doing great, we have a few more days here in the hospital to recover. Our little girl will likely be here in the NICU for a few months. We were admitted to the hospital on Thursday and have been here ever since... I guess the best days of your life can also be the most challenging. Hopefully in a day or two I can take my perfect wife home to sleep on our own bed.

At 6:11pm on 29 Aug, after a heroic labor of 38 hours for @aprilwongphoto, Zuma James Kalu Skolnick (aka Wong Boy, first of his name, Taoist warrior saint, bodhisattva of peace and wonder) emerged from the Inner Wong Sea onto planet earth as the newest marine mammal in our pod! 🐳🐋🐬 He was 7lbs 15oz and 21 inches long at birth. He’s super cute and chill (usually!). Can’t wait to introduce him to his people. His people being every human, every plant, every animal! Zuma means abundance in Chumash and its an homage to the place we love to swim and dive. Where we chase away illegal fishermen, and clean the reef of plastics, and it cleans us of our maladies. Where we swim with sea lions and dolphins and whales and rays and all the fishes. We name him Zuma to honor the original inhabitants and caretakers of our soul home. James is for my Uncle Jay who was very important to me as a kid and young adult and died too young. He’s one of two guardian uncles from across the great sea. The other is Eh Kalu, a freedom fighter from Karen State who managed an entire state’s health system from exile during the long genocide/war between the Burmese military and the ethnic Karen people. Eh Kalu was amazing, and he died late last year. Skolnick because of the patriarchy. The fucking patriarchy. That’s the origin story. More to come. But we won’t be posting his face here anytime soon. That will be a decision for him to make when he’s able and has sussed out the pros and cons of facial recognition software, the polarization of everything, social media addiction, the flattening of truth, etc etc. could take him a few months at least. So until then... Lots of hands and feet coming. Maybe a shadow or three. Alright, gotta go give ZJ his first bath. Mmmkaybye. Love yous! 💙 - @adamskolnick on Instagram

🌼 Schläft er eigentlich immer noch bei euch im Bett?, Trinkt er immer noch eine Flasche in der Nacht?, Du verwöhnst ihn ganz schön hm?, Nimm ihn nicht gleich hoch wenn er jammert, Ihr müsst schon hier und da besser aufpassen, Du willst doch wohl nicht noch ein Kind hinten nach?, Wieso habt ihr euch jetzt auch noch Katzen angeschafft?, Ihr hättet mit dem Kinder bekommen schon noch etwas warten können.. und und und... Sind nur ein paar Kommentare von vielen die ich in den letzten Monaten zugesteckt bekommen habe. Wisst ihr eigentlich wie schwer es ist immer allen gerecht zu werden? Es ist nicht nur schwer, es ist unmöglich. Und nicht nur jetzt in meiner Situation, sondern generell im Leben. Laut Gesellschaft: Bekommst du unter 25 Kinder, ist es zu früh. Ab 35 zu spät. Mit 40 der klassische Ausrutscher. Zwischendrin je nach Mann und Arbeitsplatz okey. Feierst du mit 30 noch gerne wirst du nie erwachsen. Willst du gar keine Kinder, kommt unverständnis und du musst dich erst recht rechtfertigen. Hast du mit 40 dann wirklich keine: Karrieregeil Workerholic Hast du 3 unter 30 Arbeitsfaul. Und so gehts weiter.. Darum: Mach was dich glücklich macht, bei allen anderen schaffst du es sowieso nicht.

⭐️REPOST FROM @bumpbirthandbeyond WOMEN ARE MAGNIFICENT ✨ We are strong. We are capable. We are amazing! Do not fear birth. Prepare for it! Birth is a normal physiological process and a primal, sacred rite of passage. INFORMATION IS POWER // This account has been set up on the same principle as sex education - I would rather you were uncomfortable and not ignorant. Every birth only happens ONE time. It is a once in a lifetime event. There is no do-over. You only get one chance. Would you attempt to climb Mt Everest without thorough research, a support crew and preparation?... You would certainly not show up on the day and hope for the best! Yes, birth is a normal physiological, instinctive process, however we have been conditioned in such a way that many women have absolutely no exposure to birth and little, to no, ability to tap into these primal instincts. Please spend your time, money and energy researching pregnancy/birth/postpartum/breastfeeding. Birth trauma is very real and postpartum depression/post traumatic stress is very serious. Birth has become taboo, demonised and surrounded by messages of fear. I am frustrated and concerned with the dangerously high intervention rates. I am grateful for the science and technology available, in the event of true medical need, but are women told about the risks and side effects of intervention? Do women know they can refuse consent? You have the right to say no, the same way you can say no in the bedroom and the workplace. We have been failed by society, mass media and the current culture. All women deserve beautiful, empowered births. And to be nurtured postpartum. Surround yourself with beautiful, positive stories and messages of birth - they do exist and desperately need to rise to the surface to encourage, inspire and support women. As the wonderful Dr Michel Odent once said One cannot help an involuntary process. The point is not to disturb it. I really do believe we need to see images of birth. They change our perceptions of what our culture has taught us, that stereotypical presentation of birth as an intensely painful experience thats full of drama, being endured rather than enjoyed - @drlionelsteinberg on Instagram

MotherHEARD: Remembering the pain and the Joy. Do you relate to this?⁠ ⁠ I asked my husband to take this photo. ⁠ I asked for that, as I sat nursing my son, because I just finished sobbing. ⁠ I asked for my husband to take this photo because I wanted to remember the pain I was feeling as well as the joy. ⁠ ⁠ I was crying because postpartum is a hard thing to navigate. ⁠ I was crying because sometimes Ezra needs white noise (especially the vacuum) to fall asleep, even if I’m holding him, and that night it made me feel like he didn’t love me and that he was comforted by a vacuum more than me. ⁠ I was crying because I felt like my stomach was so useless now that it didn’t house my baby. ⁠ I was crying because I missed carrying him with me always, even though I wanted pregnancy over in the end. ⁠ I was crying because I thought “I don’t fit in my body anymore”⁠ I was crying because though I firmly believe in not being embarrassed of stretch marks, the reality hit me that I will never look the same. ⁠ I was crying because everything is different now. ⁠ I was also crying because my husband is so kind and so uplifting and always makes me feel better. ⁠ He told me I was a good mom. ⁠ ⁠ He reminded me that Ezra does in fact love me. ⁠ He told me how beautiful I am to him, and how in awe his is of my strength and persistence throughout pregnancy and birth. ⁠ ⁠ He told me he loved me. ⁠ I asked him to take this picture because I wanted to remember that I grew my son in that belly. ⁠ I continue to feed and nourish him with my body. ⁠ I carried him, and now I get to carry these B E A U T I F U L reminders of the magic that I am.⁠ ⁠ We honor you @charitymorse_⁠ - @theollieworld on Instagram

One year ago today I witnessed my first birth as a Doula and it changed me forever. I will always be forever grateful to Lauren and Nate for inviting me into this space, and for trusting me to care for them. Lauren fought so hard to have the intervention free birth she dreamed of, and ignored external pressures during her labour and truly went within and found a strength that is impossible to match outside the birth space. It was beyond amazing to witness. I learnt so much from this birth and this family, and whilst every one of the babies I witness enter this world hold a very special place in my heart, this first one brings up such strong emotions for me. I remember sobbing as I witnessed this birth and for weeks after as I recounted it to people. It felt so surreal that this was a thing I was going to be able to do and a feeling I was going to be able to experience time and time again. Happy first birthday Thea, and happy birthing day Lauren - all my love. - @ashleighjonesdoula on Instagram

Often times new parents are surprised at how little it takes to feed their newborn. When they see the small amount of colostrum their body is producing in the first days after birth they will sometimes worry if that is in fact enough. Most of the time, it is! Your newborn only needs about 1-1.5tsp (5-7ml) of your colostrum in the first two days of life. By day 3 they are eating more, about 3/4oz-1oz (22ml-30ml) per feeding. More times than not your body is making enough for your newborn in those first few days. If you’re pregnant and planning to breastfeed, get informed about how your body works, what helps this process, what can hinder the process and how much your baby needs. Talking to a lactation consultant or finding a breastfeeding support group like La Leche League can be a great place to start. - @misty_intuitivebirth on Instagram

Suatu hari.. 4 bulan setelah hari pernikahan kami.. saya memulai #langkahkecil, dengan mengundurkan diri dari satu perusahaan tempat saya bekerja selama hampir 6 tahun. Keputusan itu diambil untuk mengupayakan ikhtiar untuk memperoleh keturunan setelah sebelumnya mengalami “blighted ovum”. Upaya saya dan suami ternyata ga sampai disitu saja.. ada proses panjang selama 2 tahun yang harus dilalui sampai akhirnya mengalami 3x “BO” dan mencoba “inseminasi” yang hasilnya belum sesuai harapan. Kecewa, marah, sedih, putus asa.. itu sedikit rasa yang bisa digambarkan saat itu dan pada akhirnya mencoba ikhlas. Tidak lama dari situ, kurang lebih 3 bulan Allah menitipkan anak pertama kami “Alula Mufia Lashira” dalam rahimku, dengan kehamilan yang lancar, sehat, tanpa kendala yang berarti. Saat itu kami paham bahwa memang ini waktu yang tepat dari Allah, hadiah dari Allah atas ikhtiar kami selama 2 tahun. Sangat bersyukur memiliki Anak yang tumbuh ceria, sehat, cerdas, membuat kami sangat jatuh cinta setiap saat.. dan pada akhirnya sekarang kami insyaAllah dititipkan kembali adik nya Alula dalam rahim. Mohon doa nya agar kehamilan adik bayi sehat, lancar sampai waktu lahirnya tiba dan bisa melengkapi kebahagiaan keluarga kecil ini ❤️ #langkahkecil #untukmuyangistimewa - @rentywulandari on Instagram

Life has thrown us a curve ball and nothing could have prepared me for this level of pure bliss and staggering exhaustion. ⁣ I’ve been living in my bedroom now for an uncertain number of days trying to make sense of these heavenly moments; grasping onto them like sand running through my hands. ⁣ Through the blur of it all, I am practicing patience and compassion for myself, for my older son Hudson adjusting to the change, and learning to let go of everything out of my control. ⁣ No matter how hard the journey gets, I feel complete knowing that these twins chose me to be their mommy. Every passing hour we are growing and learning together. Every feed is a little more successful than the last because we are embracing flexibility. #fedisbest ⁣ The teamwork I’ve established with their daddy has given me the needed confidence to press on the unpredictable road ahead. It’s been scary and so very real with emotions running all over the place. ⁣ My life is forever changed, and I’m navigating a very liberating acceptance with that. I’ll be endlessly grateful for these tiny blessings and my body for enduring all that it has in creating, delivering and nourishing them. . ❤ Follow @bumpbelly_ . . 📸 : @mommamillsblog . . #pregnantbelly #pregnantlife #parentstobe #pregnantfashion #cute_pregnancy #parentlife #pregnantproblems #babyshower #pregnantfashion #pregnantandfit #pregnantmum #preggy #preggo #maternityfashion #momtobe #mother #mummy - @bumpbelly_ on Instagram

✨ WOMEN ARE MAGNIFICENT ✨ We are strong. We are capable. We are amazing! Do not fear birth. Prepare for it! Birth is a normal physiological process and a primal, sacred rite of passage. INFORMATION IS POWER // This account has been set up on the same principle as sex education - I would rather you were uncomfortable and not ignorant. Every birth only happens ONE time. It is a once in a lifetime event. There is no do-over. You only get one chance. Would you attempt to climb Mt Everest without thorough research, a support crew and preparation?... You would certainly not show up on the day and hope for the best! Yes, birth is a normal physiological, instinctive process, however we have been conditioned in such a way that many women have absolutely no exposure to birth and little, to no, ability to tap into these primal instincts. Please spend your time, money and energy researching pregnancy/birth/postpartum/breastfeeding. Birth trauma is very real and postpartum depression/post traumatic stress is very serious. Birth has become taboo, demonised and surrounded by messages of fear. I am frustrated and concerned with the dangerously high intervention rates. I am grateful for the science and technology available, in the event of true medical need, but are women told about the risks and side effects of intervention? Do women know they can refuse consent? You have the right to say no, the same way you can say no in the bedroom and the workplace. We have been failed by society, mass media and the current culture. All women deserve beautiful, empowered births. And to be nurtured postpartum. Surround yourself with beautiful, positive stories and messages of birth - they do exist and desperately need to rise to the surface to encourage, inspire and support women. As the wonderful Dr Michel Odent once said One cannot help an involuntary process. The point is not to disturb it. I really do believe we need to see images of birth. They change our perceptions of what our culture has taught us, that stereotypical presentation of birth as an intensely painful experience thats full of drama, being endured rather than enjoyed. #bumpbirthandbeyond - @bumpbirthandbeyond on Instagram

Its World Breastfeeding Week -- Ive only been breastfeeding for 22 days so weve got a long way to go. But I can tell you that getting started wasnt all that easy. Learning how to breastfeed while hospitalized after c section AND during a pandemic was a serious challenge (anyone who is interested in hearing more about that, feel free to DM me). I am so grateful to be able to feed my little one this way, but realize this is not always an option for others. Ultimately, a fed baby is best. But since this is about breastfeeding awareness the focus is on that. If you take issue with these photos you can take it up with my breastfeeding support posse...of which Timon is captain (swipe to last few photos). • WHO and UNICEF are calling on governments to protect and promote women’s access to skilled breastfeeding counselling, a critical component of breastfeeding support. Breastfeeding provides every child with the best possible start in life. It delivers health, nutritional and emotional benefits to both children and mothers. And it forms part of a sustainable food system. But while breastfeeding is a natural process, it is not always easy. Mothers need support – both to get started and to sustain breastfeeding. You can learn more about this initiative and how you can contribute here: https://www.who.int/news-room/detail/31-07-2020-world-breastfeeding-week-2020-message • A big thank you to our friend @biancaa_annn with @everlastingpixels_ who captured lots of memorable moments, documenting this phase of life beautifully (while she wore 2 masks).

MÃES DE GÊMEOS PRODUZEM LEITE SUFICIENTE PRA DOIS? ⠀ Essa é uma dúvida recorrente . A natureza, sempre sábia, possibilitou à mulher mais de um peito e uma produção de leite materno que geralmente vai além do consumo de um só bebê. Portanto, mães de gêmeos produzem leite suficiente para seus bebês. ⠀ A produção de leite materno está relacionada ao consumo, ou seja, quanto mais o bebê suga, mais leite se produz. Dessa forma, a mulher que tem mais de um filho produzirá conforme a necessidade de seus bebês. ⠀ No entanto, para o sucesso da amamentação é importante que a mãe conte com o apoio de profissionais da saúde e da família, buscando posicionar as crianças corretamente no seio materno, além de cuidados com a alimentação e outras tarefas. Com o decorrer do tempo ficará mais fácil a amamentação simultânea, pois a mulher vai ganhando segurança e destreza para fazê-la sem ajuda. Em geral, quando a mulher é bem orientada, apoiada e se sente segura, o complemento não é necessário. Mas sabemos que sempre isso é possível e viável. Liberte-se da culpa! Faça seu melhor e se perdoe caso não consiga fazer tudo #boraparir ⠀ Conhece alguma mãe de gêmeos? Ela conseguiu amamentar?

24 weeks and kicking ❤ #octoberbaby - @amynoort on Instagram

12 weeks ago I had an ultrasound 20 weeks into my pregnancy.✨🌱 Seeing a developing human moving inside me caused a huge shift for me! Seeing body parts like a spine, legs, a head, caused a *click* and a major shift in the energy of my pregnancy. I felt more acceptance and positivity after being in a struggle puddle about the situation for a while. 🤰🏼 When I first found out I was pregnant, I was stunned yet excited about it. Me and my baby’s dad were both looking forward to the journey together although we barely knew each other. I got pregnant just 3 months into dating! Over the next few months we stopped getting along. We tried to find ways to make it work, but we ended up separating and pretty much stopped communicating. It was hard on us both. Not the outcome we always had for the dream of love and parenthood. 😔 As time passed, I felt grief around losing my freedom, who I knew myself to be, and the “old me dying”. A huge part of my grieving was accepting that I was on this journey pretty much alone. And, that after all the years of a deep relationship with my ex, confusingly it wasn’t happening with him. It was *extremely* humbling that I got pregnant by someone so fast after being committed to celibacy, and that on top of that, that it wasn’t gonna work out with him. 🥺 I faced this truth head on. I openly talked about it, a lot. I surrendered. I accepted and leaned into the road ahead as a single mother. I spent nights crying about how “this isn’t how it was supposed to be.” I felt alone, even with all the other support I had. It felt unnatural to not have my child’s father near, supporting and caring. I felt bad for my child. 🌊 Time passed and I grew through that. I am now 33 weeks along, and recently me and my baby’s dad are developing an amazing friendship. We have clear communication, and I’m feeling supported by him. I feel strong and grateful after going through that intense initiation of grief. I feel more and more ready to birth this child into the world! It hasn’t been the ideal situation, but we are making the best of it. I feel connected to my baby and to motherhood. I expand and grow daily. Physically and emotionally. 🧬 #glowsamommy #glowsjourney - @thegoldenglow on Instagram

Life Update with a teeny, tiny side of complications here and there. Apologies for the long post! I usually dont post much about my personal life as Ive always had a habit of keeping work separate from private life---but as of recent, Ive had to step away for a bit as my husband and I will finally become parents to a human child in Nov (yes, my first born will always be my fluffy pup, Miso)! On June 20th, I went in for my sonogram appointment. I didnt really expect anything as Ive done genetic testing before and the results have always turned out normal. The technician said our baby girl looked healthy, asking if I was sure about my due date because she was measuring a week ahead and how her legs are super long. I joked and said, maybe Ill have my Halloween baby after all. We looked at her heart and the tech kept saying her heart is beautiful. Its strong. Its a beautiful heart. In hindsight, I realized why she was repeating that. To any unknowing eyes, she was just as a baby should look like and thats what the doctor began with. She said, Overall, your baby is perfectly normal. All her extremities are growing well. Brain and heart all good, but she has a cleft lip on the left side. My brain kind of stopped working after I heard that. A cleft lip. I know what it is, but it doesnt run in my family nor my husbands. Apparently, its common in Asians, but I didnt know anyone with it. All I could do was nod to her telling me fact after fact about this condition. 1 in 700. It can be fixed. The palate seems intact. But there could be other defects, anomalies associated with a cleft lip/palate. We can test with an amniocentesis.

Repost @aimeewasabi • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “Breastfeeding is a mothers gift to herself, her baby, and the earth - Pamela K Wiggins. 🌺⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Most people know (atleast in part) the benefits that breastfeeding provides for both mum and bub, but alot of people dont realise the benefits that breastfeeding provides for the environment. 🌏 The theme for World Breastfeeding Week 2020 is Support breastfeeding for a healthier planet to help bring awareness to how breastfeeding contributes to a sustainable future. 🌱⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Think about the differences in what is needed to make breastmilk VS what is needed to make formula 🤔 (not ragging on formula at all here, just bringing to light the benefits of breastfeeding in the sense of sustainability #factsnotattacks). To make breastmilk: you just need breasts. 🤱 No livestock is needed. No excessive water consumption. No deforestation. No factory. No pollution. No packaging. No transport. No carbon footproot. No waste. Breastfeeding has no negative affect on our environment whatsoever. 💁‍♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Additionally, breastmilk positively affects the economy by lowering rates of disease and illness 💉 (over a lifespan aswell, not just whilst the infant/child is breastfeeding) and strengthening immune systems. 💪 In other words, even if you havent breastfed or been breastfed; you still reap some benefits! 🙌 Pretty cool huh? 🥰 #breastfeeding #breastfeedingmama #normalizebreastfeeding #breastfedbabies #breastfeedingmum #breastmilk #mamabearmilkboosts #lactation #mama #mom #mum #boobing #breastfeed #nursing #normalisebreastfeeding #lactationsupport #motherhood #womensuppportingwomen #breastfeedingmum - @mamabearmilkboosts on Instagram

About 10 seconds after birth, they will take their first breath, which will inflate their lungs and start the oxygenation process. ❆ As they continue to breathe air, this color will turn more red, and then into pink. ❆ The hands and feet may retain a bluish hue for a bit longer, which is normal. ❆ Your care provider will keep a close eye on baby’s color and breathing- intervention will occur if baby continues to have trouble transitioning. ❆ #Repost @doulaheathertaylor ・・・ 📸 • @tncphoto - @birthandbabyhub on Instagram

September is #nicuawarenessmonth so I wanted to share about the lead up to the 3 and 4 weeks Sam and Zelda spent in the NICU. We were shocked to find out that we were having twins, but the idea of holding two babies in my arms at birth was something I dreamed of doing. Every twin pregnancy is high risk (especially with my history of needing bedrest) so we knew we had to be prepared for a likely NICU stay. At 31 weeks pregnant, I found out that I had gestational diabetes AND that Baby B (Zelda) was IUGR. So after a myriad of appointments and an eventual failed BPP scan and stress test at 32 weeks, I was sent to the hospital for a possible c-section. Things stabilized overnight, but I contracted the flu! So I spent 8 days in the hospital hoping and praying to keep these babies inside while living in isolation. Thankfully, my mom had flown in the week before so she was there to help Michael with the girls at home (who were only 21 months and 3.25 years old at the time). After my discharge, I was home for 5 days before returning back to the hospital for the real delivery. That morning both Baby A (Sam) and Baby B (Zelda) failed their BPP scans so straight to the hospital I went. Here I am meeting Sam (5lbs - top photo) and Zelda (3.5 lbs - bottom photo) for the first time, about 3.5 hours after they were born. Of course I never got the experience of holding the babies together in my arms after birth since they were immediately whisked away to be put on oxygen. I would have to wait a few weeks before getting to feel the joy of holding two newborns at once! Our time in the NICU feels like a distant memory now that it has been 2.5 years; however, I’ll never forget what it felt like to have my heart split in half with two toddlers at home and two preemies in the hospital (and then it was even harder once Sam was discharged 5 days before Zelda). Sending all my love to all the NICU babies and their families today and all month long! #ourlittlepreemie #33weekers #beautiful #nicustrong #nicuawareness #niculove #nicustrong #nicugrads #twins #twinlove #love #twiniversitytwinnies #motherly #mamamanhattan #momblog #momssupportingmoms #nicu #nyp - @mama.manhattan on Instagram

Erster Tag als Mama! Jeder sagte im Krankenhaus etwas andere. Der eine sagte, die Milch reicht nicht, der Nächste sagte, dass wie unbedingt ein Stillhütchen brauchen, der andere sagt auf keinen Fall wegen Saugverwirrung, der eine sagte dies der andere sagte jenes... Ich war absolut überfordert, da es bei uns irgendwie nicht so wirklich klappen wollte. Jedes Mal 4 Hände, die Brustwarze und das kleine Köpfchen fast schon gewaltsam aneinander drückten. Dann kam eine alte Hebamme herein und sah eine junge Mama in Tränen, völlig verzweifelt. Sie sagte Jetzt atmen Sie einmal tief ein, legen Stillhütchen, Stillkissen einfach alles weg! Sie werden es schaffen! Die Natur hat Ihnen alles gegeben was sie brauchen. Der noch dicke Bauch ist ihr natürliches Stillkissen Es klappte zum ersten Mal ohne Andockkampf ohne ein einziges Hilfsmittel. Es brauchte diese Begegnung um mir die Zuversicht zu geben, dass es klappt. Es waren dann zwar noch ein paar Steine im Weg bis zur harmonischen Stillbeziehung. Aber ich hatte immer wieder diesen Moment im Kopf, wo es einfach alles perfekt war! Glaubt an euch auch wenn es Mal Rückschritte gibt. #weltstillwoche #stillen #muttermilch #breastfeeding #worldbreastfeedingweek #mamawerden #mamasein #mamablogger #mama #baby #newborn #neugeborenes #säugling #krankenhaus #wochenbett #Schwangerschaft #schwanger #erstertag #glaubeandich #Zuversicht - @stillen_breastfeeding on Instagram

Cuando la placenta se desprende sale sangre. Es una gran oleada. . 🩸Tras ello y gracias a esa súper sensación que te da el recibir a tu bebé, ese que va a ser el mejor orgasmo de tu vida, segregas muchísima oxitocina y tu útero se contrae y deja de sangrar. . ⏱Por eso la manera en cómo se viven esos primeros minutos es vital. . 🤱Poder coger a tu bebé, en un ambiente íntimo, donde hay poca luz, donde hace calorcito, donde la gente no te habla, donde no te sientes invadida. . . . La OMS recomienda administrar oxitocina sintética en ese momento para ayudar a esa contracción a todas las mujeres.💉 . ¿Cuándo es importantísimo recibirla? Por ejemplo: 💉Cuando tienes la epidural 💉Cuando has necesitado oxitocina sintética en el trabajo de parto 💉Cuando el expulsivo ha sido largo y duro 💉Cuando el ambiente en el paritorio es antiparto 💉Cuando no puedes coger a tu bebé justo tras su salida. . Y sí, el color del bebé es normal.😍 . @tnc.photo #hemorragiapostparto #hemorragia #postparto #sangrado #oxitoxina #epidural - @mujeressabias.matronas on Instagram

What do you wish for your children? . For me, I want to instill in them boundaries. Ones that I was missing with their dad, and ended so mentally traumatizing for me (financial abuse, emotional abuse, seeing sex workers while I had just given birth etc). So I never want my kids to ever have to experience that for years, and then come out of it fighting, wondering why we just didn’t say ‘no’, or listen to our own intuition. I want them to always know that they can leave, a party, a commitment, a job. That their boundaries are what matter, and people who cross those boundaries are the ones in the wrong, not them for enforcing them. What about you? What is the number 1 (or 10) things that you absolutely want for them when they become adults and navigate the world alone? .

Did you know breastfeeding can have a positive effect on your mood and sleep? 🤱🏽⁠ ⁠ “Breastfeeding surges a mother’s hormones of prolactin and oxytocin. These lactation hormones are little helpers for a mother’s mental well-being–particularly oxytocin,” said lactation consultant Summer Friedmann (@donenaturally).⁠ ⁠ Sometimes, though, mothers who struggle with nursing experience anxiety and depression.⁠ ⁠ Its important to seek help from a lactation consultant if:⁠ ⁠ 👉🏼 You experience pain (during or after feeds)⁠ 👉🏼 Your baby seems unhappy while feeding⁠ 👉🏼 Your baby won’t settle between feedings⁠ 👉🏼 Your baby doesn’t have the appropriate number of wet and dirty diapers⁠ 👉🏼 Your baby isn’t gaining weight at an acceptable rate⁠ ⁠ Want to learn more about breastfeeding and mental health?

Tandem nursing usually means little to no rest. This photo takes me back. The girls were about six months old at this point. I was getting very little sleep, and what I got was restless. - Our bedtime routine began around this time. We went upstairs to my bed and got them all snuggled in their sleep sacs. They often would tandem nurse in the side-lying stacked position, but this particular night Aria wasn’t having it. So Asher got the top bunk and passed right out. - These were some really tough times filled with little sleep and lots of unnecessary arguing. I thought it was my sleep deprivation that kept us constantly at odds, but I eventually realized, It’s HIM, not ME. (Shew, glad I got that road block out of my way.) - My babies and I were in the beginning stages of sleep training (6 months) and we were pretty much pros at breastfeeding at this point. - What are some things you’re struggling with or having anxiety about with your own journey? - @jennifer.mancuso - @motherhoodrising on Instagram

Casi dos años de la revolución física, mental, sentimental de dar la teta. A dos. A la vez. La experiencia más hermosa, agotadora, feliz de mí vida. Amé dar la teta. Amaron sus tetas. Fueron las bebés más teteras que conocí en la vida. Real. De hecho en un momento me sentí en un agujero negro porque creí que nunca las iba a poder destetar 🙄. Y eso merece un capítulo aparte. Al día de hoy las siguen saludando y me sonríen con una carita que me derrito. Agradezco a toda la red de amor que me rodeó y me acompañó para que esto fuera posible. Soñaba y deseaba poder hacerlo y así fue. Gracias compañero hermoso que te miraste mil quinientos videos de cómo amamantar a dos (y de cesáreas, no entiendo cómo pudiste) jajajaja. Gracias cuñada del amor @vickypalma_makeup ahí desde el momento uno ayudándome (siento que deberías ser doula mágica/partera) Gracias a @melinagaggero que nos salvó la lactancia con tal solo una visita a nuestro hogar Y gracias a toda la familia y amigas que estuvieron y están ahí siempre al pie del cañón. #semanadelalactanciamaterna me trae unos muy movilizantes recuerdos 💓 - @malenkuipers on Instagram

This is my reality. Having a preemie ; bottles are kinda the way to go at first. In the NICU we chose bottles so we’d know River was getting a specific amount of milk & to get the eff out of there (which a lot of moms choose). This meant majority of our days were spent pumping. Like every 2-3 hours. Trying to do more breast feeding, but still pumping. To be honest I cannot wait for the day I can throw my pump in the trash if it’s because River is just breast feeding, has moved onto solid foods or I’ve switched to formula. I can say I won’t miss it. Once you finish pumping then cleaning and sterilizing you have to pump again. All my Exclusively Pumping moms know the this life. It’s exhausting and I cannot wait to be D O N E 🙌🏻 The amazing @themikaelashannon on feeding her new child. #LifeAfterBirth #FedIsBest - @lifeafterbirthproject on Instagram

AT FIRST SIGHT She gave birth on all fours. Baby is guided between her legs and up to mum by dad as she lay eyes on her son for the first time. An overwhelming moment. What a legacy to share. #handsondad #birthonallfours #laborpositions #uncensoredbirthimages #birthbecomesher #empoweredbirthproject #educatedbirth #labouranddelivery #empoweredbirth #birthphotographers_australia #vaginalbirth #vaginasareawesome #birth #birthisbeautiful #uncensorbirth #childbirth #labor #labour #informedbirth #birthgoddess #birthwarrior #landbirth #realbirth #birthuncensored #adelaidebirthphotographer #hospitalbirth - @adelaide_birth_photographer on Instagram
