LoveRosiee Featured In The Huffington Post!

As a mum, I always try to help fellow parents and pregnant mamas. When the team at The Huffington Post reached out to me recently, I jumped at the chance.

Today’s blog post is a little bit of background and a chance to catch my interview in the Huffington Post…

Huffington Post Feature

It’s no secret that I’ve been open and outward when sharing my pregnancy experiences, time as a new mother and breastfeeding journey.

I’ve worked with multiple brands to help destigmatise breastfeeding in public, pumping and bottle feeding and life as a parent.

My work with Emma’s Diary has reached lots of new and prospective parents and I’ve received hundreds of kind messages.

So, when the parenting team at the Huffington Post wanted to interview me, I was happy to chat about our breastfeeding journey coming to an end.

A Look At My Feature…

“Rosie Beech, 30, from Windsor, breastfed her baby Jack after he was born by emergency C-section. While it was initially hard to establish, they eventually got into a groove and didn’t look back.

“We successfully breastfed night and day, with pumping and breast milk given in a bottle, for 10 months,” says the social media manager and blogger.“

“Discussing how her body reacted to her son’s sudden change in preference, she says: “My body was in shock. I’ve always experienced leaking and had to pump throughout the night and in the day.”

She ended up purchasing a breast pump that she could put in her bra to help her get some sleep. “My supply dropped after a few weeks and then I gently, slowly but surely weaned the number of daily and nightly pumps down until I was getting about an ounce per pump,” she says.”

When sharing how our breastfeeding journey came to an end, I wanted to be brutally honest but also kind to myself.

It was a tough transition for me but Jack thrived drinking milk from a bottle and an open cup.

People Also Ask…

What is the easiest way to stop breastfeeding?

When you choose to phase out breastfeeding, you will need to take it slow and gently for both of your sakes. Stopping gradually will help prevent problems like overfull, hard (engorged) breasts and mastitis. You’ll probably find it easiest to drop 1 feed at a time.

Is it ok to stop breastfeeding suddenly?

When the time is right for you to wean your baby off of breastmilk and breastfeeding, it is best to do it gradually.Stopping breastfeeding suddenly could put you at risk of engorgement, blocked ducts or mastitis, as well as being an abrupt change for your baby’s digestive and immune systems to cope with.
