Majka višak mlijeka donira - vjeruje kako je dojenje najbolje

Dojenje je 'težak posao' za nove majke koje nisu u mogućnosti to činiti zbog određenih razloga. Za one majke koje nisu u mogućnosti da same proizvode mlijeko postoje mliječni banke.

Majka Ashley Clifford nakon rođena zdrave djevojčice ima i previše mlijeka te ga dijeli.

'Ova mi fotografja znači jako puno. Kad sam saznala kako sam trudna s ovom bebom, moj san nije bio samo biti u mogućnosti da ju dojiti, nego i da doniram mlijeko.

Dopustite mi da budem jasna oko jedne stvari, vjerujem kako je DOJENJE najbolje.

Ova slika predstavlja mnoge besane noći, posebno iz prvih par tjedana, 8,7 litara dodatnog mlijeka... Danas sam donirala oko 6 litara po prvi put i osjećaj koji imam je teško objasniti. To je mješavina uzbuđenja i ljubavi... Osjećam se nekako zaštitnički, ali me to neće spriječiti u danjem darivanju.'

This photo means so much to me. When I found out I was pregnant with this baby, my DREAM was to not only be able to breastfeed her, but to be able to donate milk as well. Let me be clear about one thing though, I believe FED is best. I tried to nurse David, but after a month of him barely gaining anything, I started supplementing an eventually went straight to formula with him. And he's thriving! This picture represents many sleepless nights, especially from the first couple weeks, 295 ounces of extra milk, five blocked ducts, and a 17.5 lb healthy, growing baby girl. Today I'm donating about 200 ounces for the first time and the feeling I'm having is hard to explain. It's a mix of excitement and love but at the same time, I'm having some reservations, only because nursing and pumping is HARD! I feel kind of protective of this haha BUT that isn't going to stop me from giving some of this away
