Palms of My Hands

I want to share one thing I read about breastfeeding in the hope that this might help some of my fellow moms who are having difficulty with breastfeeding to understand and persevere more with their nursing babies. It says that around the 2nd week, and the 2nd, 4th, and 6th months, it may seem that our babies want to nurse "all the time." Our babies may want to nurse every 30 or 60 minutes, and stay at the breast for longer periods. It may seem that the only thing we are doing all day is nursing. This increase in nursing is normal and signals our bodies to produce more milk as our babies enter a growth spurt. Within a few days, our milk supply will have increased to provide enough milk at each feeding and the babies will start eating less frequently and for shorter periods of time.
