Breastfeeding benefit from my personal experience :
- a huge contributing factor for a healthy and chubby baby I am granted with currently.
- even though my baby was born with a low birth weight, his weight pick up exponentially after birth, surpassing many of his baby collesague, even those who have already aged 8 - 9 months.
- mommy lose weight incredibly too! no jamu, not much exercise but may be hectic oncalls are to blame too. i weigh lighter than my pre-pregancy days :D
- the physiological changes I endured during pregnancy have gradually dissapearing.e.g. hyperpigmentation is getting much lighter just as before :) it has gone back to normal now. luckilly no stretch marks.
- satisfied feeling seeing bottles of breastmilk filling in the top compartment of the freezer :)
- money saving! no need to buy those expensive powdered formula milk.
- effective contraception. baby is 5 months old and Im still menstruation free. expected to last up to 6 months. we'll see ;-)
I hope I could continue to breastfeed Harris for 2 years. Btw, Harris got his 5 month old jab yesterday and he did not even cringe let alone cry when poked! kuat anak mama nyh ;p
