Breast Milk

I know that we have posted about this before but I have so much to say about breastfeeding. I can't tell you how thankful I am every single day that I am able and choose to nurse my babies. The benefits are through the roof in terms of their health! I think my favorite thing about it though is the comfort that I can provide to them. My youngest had a minor health scare and was taken to the hospital for some pretty invasive testing. He was so upset but I knew that as soon as I could get him on the breast he would be soothed, happy and content. I was so grateful that I was able to do that for him.

I also just had someone ask me if they could "borrow" some of my breast milk for their pink eye. Did you know that if you squirt some into the eye it heals pink eye? Amazing, huh?! There are literally 1000's of thing that you can do with breast milk...I am not sure how long I plan to nurse the baby but I see no end in sight at this point:)
