How Breastfeeding Benefits Moms

February 10, 2009

Every other day, you will find magazines, dailies coming up with articles about new found advantages of breastfeeding to both baby and the mother. Here, I would deal with the benefits of breast feeding to mothers only.

Breast milk is the best for the child- this is what we have been listening. Let me tell you that mother is equally benefitted from barest feeding.  Now, you must be trying to figure out, how the mother is benefited.
Breastfeeding helps to lose weight. One of the common concerns for new mothers is that how to lose weight, which has been gained during those nine months? Why to worry unnecessarily and go for dieting staking your health? Do the breast feeding regularly. Complement your weight loss effort by doing some light exercise as well.

You must have heard about post natal depression. It is a very common symptom, found in mothers after child birth. The medical science has come up with proof that breast feeding can spectacularly reduce this effect.

Another important aspect, we should know that the moms, who do the breastfeed, are less prone to breast cancer and osteoporosis.

I am sure you had never thought of the aspect of financial benefits from breast feeding. Yes, breast milk is the nature’s gift to us, which comes free without any side effect. So, why to depend on formula milks and invite other side effects for the baby? Why to spend money on expensive formula milk and for doctors? My argument is that, don’t go against the nature and be a responsible parent.

The last but not the least, the emotional bonding created between the mother and child during this regular breastfeeding process is amazing. No other thing can give you the mental satisfaction like the breastfeeding does. Scientifically, if you want to understand the procedure then let me tell you that one hormone called Oxytocin is released due to breast feeding, which is a great booster of mind and health.
