Is breast best?

Sun, 16 Jan 2011 23:07:00 GMT

We know some mum's often have a hard time when trying to breast feed - not all of you but some do. And for those that struggle with learning to breast feed this can sometime lead to a path of guilt and often depression. Other times mum and bub adapt to breast feeding brilliantly or after a little trial & error and bub takes breast milk regularly.

We are however all taught as women growing up that breast milk is best for your baby and that the natural and 'right' thing to do is to breast feed. Well is it?

Yes there are no doubt numerous nutrients and bonding that comes from breastfeeding but ultimately a happy mum equals a happy bub and if breastfeeding is not something that is an enjoyable bonding experience and if it doesn't make mum feel happy then the benefits may not materialise. Perhaps bub will get the nutrients he or she needs but perhaps not the bonding as mum is too stressed. And mum may suffer emotionally too much so that those bad emotional effects may outweigh the good.

Either way you look at it, it is a hard choice but the choice should be yours and your partner’s alone. Do what is right for you and what makes you happy and relaxed. Breastfeeding is not for everyone so please don't feel guilty about not doing it. These days there are a lot of breast feeding products available in the market to suit every lifestyle and more importantly every budget; after all every new mum deserves an enjoyable and fantastic experience into motherhood.

BPA Free feeding products for your complete peace of mind

BPA or Bisphenol-A is used primarily to make plastics and is a key molecule in production of polycarbonate plastic which is used to make variety of common products including baby bottles.Studies have shown that bottles containing BPA, if heated, can leach into the food or drink inside which can create adverse health risk and may have an impact on the hormonal system of growing babies and young children.

While countries like France, USA and Canada have already taken a stand on this frightening issue and have either banned or removed the use of BPA from plastic products, Australia is yet to come on board and take this issue seriously. Until they do, we have taken the hard work out of choosing safe baby products for you by ensuring that all Cherub Baby products have passed strict international testing standards and are CE certified. This is why we have worked hard to ensure our range of bottles (including the ones in breast pump packs),teats and breast milk storage bags are 100% free of PVC, Phthalates and BPA making feeding your baby concern free.
