Several clients the last month have for various reasons have had to forgo nursing. Now in my old life I would have thought hmmmmm......... they are not committed enough, anyone can nurse. In my new life I have a whole new filter on it. Mom needs to be in the best shape mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally. If for some reason nursing does not assist those then we need to look at the next option. Without taking on MOMMY GUILT. What is mommy guilt? When a mom has done her best to look at all the options, then she goes forward with a decision and then continually beats herself up if only she would have done........ You know that whip we tend to beat ourselves with. THAT is Mommy Guilt and it does nothing to benefit our children. It actually plays into being a victim so just STOP it right now (feel the love that was said with). On to nursing, formula is not the best option so what else is left? Goats milk is good but it need to supplemented with many things to be able to compare to the nutrients of a breast fed baby. Check out this link to find the best alternative if you are not able to nurse. Let go of the guilt. Try a mini tapping session. While tapping on your collarbone, repeat out loud. I feel so guilty about......... Then state what you feel guilty about. It should take you down a few levels. Enjoy that baby without Mommy Guilt.

I have seen babies just thrive on the pumped up goats milk. digestion has gone back to normal and sleeping kicked in. Which is such a good thing.
