Pump breast milk and bottle feed
exclusively
Breastfeeding is more than just nutrition.
It is the eye-to-eye contact, the warmth
and smell of mother which stimulates the DON’Ts
child's brain for all the synaptic connection
to happen. Direct breastfeeding also
stimulates the mother’s brain to secrete a
hormone for breast milk production.
Talk to child with baby language
Talking to child in baby language prevents
them from learning the proper language,
causing some of them to continue using
such baby language when they have grown
up.
We are guilty of many errors and many faults, but our worst crime
is abandoning the children, neglecting the foundation of life. Many
of the things we need can wait. The child cannot. Right now is the
time his bones are formed, his blood is being made, his senses are
being developed. To him we cannot answer ‘TOMORROW’, his
name is ‘TODAY’.
Gabriela Mistral
