Breastfeeding During Pregnancy and Tandem Nursing | La Leche League International

November 25, 2019 By Elizabeth

“A concern you may have is the health of your unborn baby. It may be reassuring to know that in a normal pregnancy there is no evidence that continuing to breastfeed will deprive your unborn child of necessary nutrients. Another typical concern is that hormone oxytocin, released by nipple stimulation while breastfeeding, could trigger early labor. However, there is no reason to suggest a connection between miscarriage and breastfeeding in a normal pregnancy. According to Hilary Flowers, the uterus is “deaf” to oxytocin throughout pregnancy, and its sensitivity to this hormone only increases around the onset of labor (Hilary Flowers, Breastfeeding Today).” https://ift.tt/35vudx4

Authentic Care

"Whenever a woman is in labor she has pain, because her hour has come; but when she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the trials because of the joy that a child has been born into the world." (John 16:21)
