Life update: few more weeks left for birth! I am so excited yet so anxious! Birth is such an unpredictable time. You don’t know if you’ll deliver at 37 weeks or 42 weeks and what the hell it’s going to be like 😅. I must say it’s a humbling lesson and definitely an enormous pressure on those of us who get anxious without structure. I would love to learn from you. How was your second birth and parenting experience different than your first in terms of delivery, post partum and just general experience? Tell me all about it. Is it really easier like they say? Or is the transition to 2 seriously difficult? #pregnancy #birth #pregnancylife

According to reliable medical sources, such as the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the National Health Service (NHS), the levels of medication that pass through breast milk are usually very low and unlikely to cause harm. It is crucial to mention that there are only a limited number of medications that are known to be unsafe during breastfeeding. While the majority of medicines pose little risk, it is still advisable to inform a health professional especially if your baby was born prematurely or experienced jaundice at birth. These factors may influence the type of medicines that are suitable for you to take while breastfeeding. Here is a list of generally considered safe medications you can take if you are breastfeeding Sources: Infant risk center - Texas Tech University, NHS and AAP وفقًا لمصادر طبية موثوقة ، مثل الأكاديمية الأمريكية لطب الأطفال والخدمة الوطنية الصحية , عادةً ما تكون مستويات الأدوية التي تمر عبر حليب الثدي منخفضة جدًا ومن غير المرجح أن تسبب ضررًا. من المهم أن نذكر أن هناك عددًا محدودًا من الأدوية التي يعرف أنها غير آمنة أثناء الرضاعة الطبيعية في حين أن معظم الأدوية الأخرى تشكل خطرًا ضئيلًا، إلا أنه لا يزال من المستحسن إبلاغ متخصص في الرعاية الصحية بشأن ذلك، خاصة إذا ولد طفلك بشكل مبكر أو عانى من اليرقان عند الولادة. قد تؤثر هذه العوامل على نوع الأدوية المناسبة لك أثناء فترة الرضاعة الطبيعية فيما يلي قائمة بالأدوية التي تعتبر آمنة بشكل عام والتي يمكنك تناولها إذا كنت أما مرضعة ‼️‼️‼️Would you like to know what are the 5 most common mistakes breastfeeding mothers make?

Meet Maya Khalil! Our awesome Head Dietitian at the Mommy Academy. She helps moms out throughout their feeding journies and provides them with consultations when they need more support. She will be sharing some videos and tips on the aha. After the age of 1 it is recommended that a child takes between 500-750 ml of milk per day to get their calcium needs. Having more can affect your child’s intake of other food groups and therefore his/her health and growth. Many mothers think that their baby can’t reach their calcium needs if they don’t drink cow’s milk. However, this is not true. Children can get their calcium from other sources like yogurt, spinach, sesame seeds, and dairy alternatives (like calcium fortified almond milk, coconut milk or soy milk). So don’t worry if your child doesn’t love milk or can’t have cow’s milk, you can get calcium from other sources. Cow’s milk alternatives: 1 cup of milk provides 300 mg of calcium, so does: 📌1 cup fortified unsweetened coconut milk, soy milk, almond milk 📌 1 cup of almonds 📌 60 grams of hard cheese 📌3⁄4 cup of greek yogurt or 1.5 cups regular yogurt 📌 3 tbsp of sesame seeds or 5 tbsp of tahini 📌1/4 cup chia seeds 📌 1 cup cooked spinach 📌 1 cup cooked edamame لللغة العربية، اقرا التعليقات ⚠️Milk for toddlers can be SUCH a tricky topic.

On a serious note. I am very jealous of my husband. He gets to chill and live his normal life while I get every pain thinkable - and at the end of those 10 months - we both get a baby! Oh and the baby gets his last name 🙄 I don’t think it’s fair that women endure pregnancy alone (but I obviously can’t change the physiology of the human body). And for that reason I am now looking for ways our partners should level the playing field. Do you have suggestions? Here are some of mine: 1. For 2 years after having the baby. I get to choose any single night where I get to go out and have fun - responsibility free. And he must stay with the baby (and is always the designated driver if need be) 2. He must be the one changing diapers until eternity. 3. I get veto rights for 3 years. What I say goes 😅 no explanation necessary. 4. We get a gift for every month of pregnancy + every month postpartum for 2 years 😅 I’m obviously not very creative, what I’m really looking for is your ideas. In an ideal world, what would you ask for? What does your heart really desire? #pregnancy #pregnant #pregnantlife #pregnancylife

Breast milk can be safely stored in a freezer for up to 3 months and in a deep freeze for up to 12 months at temperatures of 0°F or -20°C. To ensure optimal storage, we do recommend you place the stored breast milk at the back of the freezer or refrigerator rather than on the door. You can combine newly expressed milk with previously chilled or frozen milk, but it is important to chill the newly expressed milk before adding it to the container. The expiration date of the combined milk will be determined based on the date of the original milk. We do encourage you to freeze breast milk in feeding-sized quantities especially if you are uncertain what your baby’s needs are. Starting with 2-3 oz quantities is recommended to avoid thawing more milk than your baby can consume within 24 hours. Once you have an understanding of your baby’s intake from a bottle, you can freeze milk in the desired quantity to minimize wastage. NOTE: IF you are traveling, store your milk in an insulated cooler bag with frozen ice packs for up to 24 hours when you are traveling. 📌Every mom wants to breastfeed her baby and give them the best possible milk for a lifetime of health. However, only 20% of mothers manage to do so. Why?

Did you know that at 6 months old, babies turn into mini-nutrient enthusiasts? It's true! Babies need certain vitamins and minerals that even surpass the needs of toddlers. Now, here's the juicy secret: simply pureeing fruits and veggies won't cut it. Our babies need an extra boost of power-packed nutrients. We're talking about iron and zinc found in minced legumes and meat. The World Health Organization recommends serving up nourishing foods that are rich in vitamins and minerals, especially iron and zinc. Think legumes, meat, chicken, fish, and eggs. Chickpeas, fava beans, and every other bean are safe and encouraged to be offered to babies starting 6 months of age. Not only that, adding to them olive oil for some healthy fats, spices like cumin and greens like chopped parsley which are safe starting 6 months can be really beneficial in terms of nutrients AND in terms of exposure. If you introduce a variety of flavors from 6 months onwards, you might just prevent your baby from transforming into a picky eater down the road. ⚠️⚠️⚠️Would you like a course that answers all your questions about starting solids, gives you a schedule of feeding, and makes your life much easier? ⁣⁣Would you like to get the exact cutting guide ? ⁣⁣ I made the 6-12 months course just for that! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Moms love this course as it answers all their questions and gives information they don’t usually know.

Pomelo fruit has a myriad of benefits for your baby! It is very rich in antioxidants including flavonoids and vitamin C, and also in vitamin A that supports your baby’s immunity. It helps support your baby’s digestion - so if your baby is struggling with constipation - pomelo can be a great addition to their diet especially that it is not only high in fiber, but also it has a high water content. Pomelo is safe starting at 6 months of age. Make sure it is well ripened if you choose to offer it as finger food as shown in this video. It can also be offered in a puree form. ⚠️⚠️⚠️Would you like a course that answers all your questions about starting solids, gives you a schedule of feeding, and makes your life much easier? ⁣⁣Would you like to get the exact cutting guide ? ⁣⁣ I made the 6-12 months course just for that! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Moms love this course as it answers all their questions and gives information they don’t usually know.

Okay so, some women have told me that with all the “reality videos” postpartum. They feel like they are stressed and nervous already. There feel there is no positivity shared. In my experience, there’s a lot of beautiful things like getting to know your beautiful baby, the breastfeeding bond and so much more. Most women after seeing their baby think “I will do it again and again”. But also for me, I didn’t see the positivity until 2 months passed. Things got significantly better at the 2 months mark and it was just better and better and better and better. I would definitely do pregnancy and postpartum a million times over just to hear my son enthusiastically sharing a story with me. What was your experience like. Was it hard and got better? When did it get better? How did you notice it got better? Can you share with us both the negative and the positive? Or was it positive all along? If so, how. What would make have made it more positive for you? Many women are very good at being resourceful and asking for what they need.
