1) All moms intend to give their baby all the best. Best clothes, best crib, best baby products. The number one in my list is the best food. I want my baby to always be in a healthy state.
2) I've read a lot of articles that breastfeeding can prevent breast and ovarian cancer. I have a history of one so it's a plus!
3) Some people say that having breastfed my baby for at least two months is enough, he got the colostrum which is the most important anyway. But I don't buy that. I want to give my baby the maximum nutrition and I intend to breastfeed my baby as long as I can. Now that he is five months old, breastfeeding is already a breeze. Being a working mom, my greatest fear is "what if my baby forgets me?" and "what if he prefers someone else more than me?". Breastfeeding helps me trust myself as a mom knowing that there's something no one else can give him but me.
4) I find breastfeeding very convenient. No bottles to wash, no milk preparation at night, and few things to bring when travelling.
5) Unending list of breastfeeding benefits.
6) I want to raise a happy and a healthy baby. Monitoring his growth and development from 1-5 months, I am very happy with the results.
