When you are exposed to a virus, your baby is usually exposed to the same one. Thankfully, your body begins to produce antibodies to fight off the illness. Those antibodies make their way into your milk and are passed on to your baby when you breastfeed. It is important to continue nursing so your baby gets the antibodies you are making in response to the virus. These antibodies help your baby to recover from the illness and can also make the illness less severe. This is very important because your baby’s own immune-system will not be fully mature until she is about seven to eight years old.

Giving a boost to your baby’s immature immune systems is part of the natural design of breastfeeding.

We are so sorry, but we need to cancel tonight's La Leche League meeting due to illness. See you all again on Wed. March 22nd.

How do you help calm your fussy baby? What have you done that calmed baby?

Newborns have a need to feel grounded, warm and protected. So much, it can trigger their reflex to nurse.

"In the research she conducted for her PhD thesis, British midwife Suzanne Colson analyzed the effects of gravity on breastfeeding in 93 videotaped feeding sessions of British and French mothers during the first month of life. After scrutinizing these videos, Colson identified 20 inborn reflexes babies use to get to the breast, latch on, and feed. These reflexes are triggered best when baby feels light pressure against her chin, torso, hips, legs, and feet." http://www.nancymohrbacher.com/.../laid-back...

They will one day sleep through the night.
They will one day fall asleep without the b**b.
They will one day not be in diapers.

When the tough moments hit, stop and take a deep breath. Remember, this too shall pass.
