Mothers can be very serious about choosing to breastfeed or bottle feed a baby

Looking forward to you reading the following article and a big thank you for choosing this topic, great choice indeed.

The benefits of breastfeeding your baby are often disputed among breastfeeding advocates and mothers who choose the bottle over the breast. Many of the benefits of breastfeeding can be duplicated by bottle feeding mothers and it really boils down to a matter of personal choice. Those who bottle feed their babies choose to avoid some of the unpleasant experiences that came with choosing to breastfeed an infant. In an effort to lighten the serious battle between the bottle and the breast, let's take a look at some of the humorous benefits of breastfeeding.

One great perk of breastfeeding is that you get to wear sexy, easy access, nursing clothes. Most nursing clothes are designed to allow your infant easy access to the breast. This feature is a great convenience, but it also can lead to inadvertent breast flashes in public if your nursing clothes are not properly secured after feeding your infant. If you find people following you around while out in public, check your shirt.

You get to join the stylish trend of baby wearing. Breast fed infants often nurse more frequently than bottle fed infants. This can lead to the feeling that your child is always attached to your breast. Baby wearing can be seen in malls, grocery stores and parks across the nation. Baby slings, swaths and holsters are sold that encourage a nursing mother to flaunt her baby wearing style. Some even offer anytime access to the breast- a very nice perk for the infant.

You also get to enjoy the experience of public breast feeding. There's nothing quite like attempting to discreetly nurse your infant by draping a blanket over your shoulder to provide a little privacy and having a curious stranger walk up and peek under the blanket to get a look at the adorable baby- and your exposed breast. Communities should hold public breastfeeding contests to see which mother has the best embarrassing story of breastfeeding in public.

Some mothers take the natural approach to breastfeeding in public and let it all hang out- daring onlookers to stare and make snide comments. If you happen to encounter one of these women, do not confront them! They are hopped up on postpartum hormones, made cranky by sore breasts and are often sleep deprived from nursing their infant every two hours around the clock- they can be very dangerous!

This brings us to the classic sore nipples. There is just no other experience that compares to allowing a hungry infant to chomp, suck, chew and grab a breast that is plagued by bruised, cracked and sore nipples. No amount of prenatal education or coaching by the La Leche League can prepare you properly for sore nipples- it must be experienced to be appreciated.

These humorous benefits of breastfeeding do not phase some women. They plow ahead with the documented positive benefits of breastfeeding in their sights. Learning to take the humorous and often unpleasant benefits of breastfeeding in stride will help new mothers cope.

I hope you have been able to gain something from this article, thanks for reading.
