Bonding, Love, Happiness

I chose to breastfeed my daughter, Derronica, because while in the hospital the nurses were educating me on all the benefits she would get out of it. I had never thought about it before until I got all the encouraging stories and statements of it. It's a wonderful experience because while she's nursing I can feel the bond between us. It's so much stronger than bottle feeding. Just knowing that she was going to have a healthier immune system made it all worth the while. It really is an amazing thing to know that as women, not only can we be strong and very helpful for our families but we can also feed our children from our bodies and it's the most healthiest way for them. Hands down I suggest this to anyone in question. God Bless.
