Three Dental Tips for BreastfeedingMothers

Pssst... can I admit something...

I've been feeling guilty for neglecting my dental health once my third baby was born. Yes, perhaps I still brush my teeth twice a day, but other than that? Honestly, I didn't make it a priority at all. Not to mention those mid-night snacks when I felt hungry while nursing my baby at night. Can you relate?

So when Dr. Amanda Tavoularis from dentably.com approached me to offer her dental tips for breastfeeding mothers, I could not be happier. I need these tips and I believe you too as a breastfeeding mother would benefit from these oral hygiene tips.

Without further ado, let's go straight to her dental tips below.

Freemie Liberty Breast Pump Reviews

Have you ever felt how troublesome pumping is. You need to excuse yourself from work a few times daily. Or, perhaps you are at home and need to stop whatever you are doing just to do pumping.

Perhaps you wish you can multitask by pumping while doing other things. But ugh, the pumping bra does not fit nicely. Or perhaps, the moment you move around, the pumping tubes get detached from the pump motor. Anybody experience this before? =D

I feel you. And how I wish pumping is easier to do.

Benefits of Protein Powder for Breastfeeding Moms | Majka Review

I still remember the advise that I got when my third baby was hospitalized due to not getting enough breast milk.

Both the pediatrician and lactation consultant told me on how important it is to have a well-balanced diet. The lactation consultant particularly emphasized on the importance of protein intake.

But as much as how determined I am to have a well-balanced diet, life tells different story. As a mom of three, I am so busy and rarely have a proper balanced meal. If I can have five minutes to enjoy my food, that’s really an accomplishment. For most days, meals are taken in rush, so it’s easily forgetting to pay attention to my nutrition intake.

A lot of time I feel hungry and tired. How I wish I have something that is easy to gulp down to replenish my energy.

That’s why, when Majka approached me to try their lactation protein powder, I felt so excited. Perhaps this is the solution that I need to stay fit and energized throughout my day.
