"For me, natural term breastfeeding has been helpful in so many ways. It has allowed me to "fix" bumps, sadness and tiredness. It has always been the obvious go to when my children were in need of emotional help. It's no secret that having "boobie" (or however your nurselings refer to it) after a bump or fall is like the magic cure, and this has very much been the case for all 3 of my children. It has also allowed me to do so much, like stay out as a family a bit longer than planned, because I'm the human equivalent to a vending machine!"
