Tips to Breastfeed Adopted Newborns


Breast milk has some of the best antibodies and nutrients a person can give their child. You just can’t replicate the benefits of breast milk, no matter the vitamins you put in baby formula. If you breast feed your child, you can reduce the risk of allergies and health conditions like eczema and asthma. And of course, breast milk is free: you don’t have to spend a lot of money feeding your child if you can breast feed them. Breastfeeding your new baby is a choice and all mothers have to decide one way or the other. It is a way to be sure your new baby best the best start in life that he or she can get. As you know, there are many factors that may go into breastfeeding.

Breastfeeding and returning to work are widely accepted by most employers. They understand the value of doing both. Talk to your employer before you return so that you know what to expect there. You should be able to express your milk on your breaks and on your lunch break. If you know when those are scheduled you should get into the habit of expressing your milk at those times when you are still on maternity leave.

There are other ways to determine if your baby is consuming enough breast milk each day. Keep track of how many wet diapers they go through. You should have at least six. If the baby is with different people throughout the day have each person tally them so you get a total at the end of the day. Your baby can have any number of stools while breastfeeding. Talk to your doctor if chronic constipation seems to occur.

Breastfeeding causes a close bond to form between mom and baby. This is more than just the time spent close together; this is actally a hormonal change in mom while she is nursing. A hormone called ‘prolactin’ is released as a mother breast feeds and this has been known to cause a relaxing effect on the mom. This whole experience is what develops this bond between the baby and mom that lasts a lifetime.

Breast milk is sterile and contains perfectly balanced nutrients. Within a few days after your birth, a bluish and watery fluid is secreted from your breasts. This is called colostrum and is high on protein, vitamins, and minerals. For some mothers, the onset of colostrum varies – others have it before they even give birth and some take a few more days. Colostrum is the “human vaccine” against illnesses and can only be found in breast milk.
