Breastfeeding seems to be a controversial subject to discuss. Especially with social media and "mommy shaming," which is horrible and no one should ever judge a woman for formula feeding OR breastfeeding. I would like to come from a place of love, sunshine, and rainbows, to let women know how awesome it is to breastfeed for their own health. Yep, you read that correctly. Let's discuss the health benefits for women ONLY today:)
1.Decreased risk of breast and ovarian cancers
2.50% decreased risk of developing type II diabetes if you experienced gestational diabetes
3.Natural contraceptive
4.Free
5. Uterus shrinks back to original size quicker
6.Weight loss by burning up to 550 calories
So, ladies, be selfish (selfless) and breastfeed for your own health! :
