Look here! Do you really think that everybody in this world is talking directly to you or that they are disrespecting you with every word they say or post? You really have your place in this universe confused. You are not the center of the universe. I was merely stating a common happening that occurs when babies are involved. The majority of people use pacifiers breast fed or not. It's just that there is a hard core group of breastfeeding mothers who don't use them because they are an artificial nipple and can cause nipple confusion. As far as posting links. I posted a link and you ignored it. What cause have you given me to believe that you would even read or acknowledge the research if I posted more?
In recent years, studies have shown that it’s best for mothers and their healthy baby to stay together after birth (Bergman, Linley, & Fawcus, 2004; Bystrova, Matthiesen, et al., 2007; Bystrova, Widstrom, et al., 2007; Christensson et al., 1992; International Lactation Consultant Association, 1999; Moore & Anderson, 2007; Moore, Anderson, & Bergman, 2007; World Health Organization [WHO], 1998). And e xperts agree that unless a medical reason exists, healthy mothers and babies shouldn’t be separated after birth or during the early days following birth ( Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine [ABM] Protocol Committee, 2007; American Academy of Family Physicians, 2007; American Academy of Pediatrics [AAP] Expert Workgroup on Breastfeeding, 2005; International Lactation Consultant Association, 1999; UNICEF/WHO, 2004; WHO, 1998). Interrupting, delaying, or limiting the time that a mother and her baby spend together may have a harmful effect on their relationship and on breastfeeding success (Enkin et al., 2000).Keeping Mothers and Babies Together Babies stay warm and cry less, and breastfeeding gets off to a good start when mothers and their baby have frequent time together, beginning at birth. Mothers learn to recognize their baby’s needs, responding tenderly and lovingly. A connection that lasts a lifetime begins to form.
The Moment of Birth Nature prepares you and your baby to need and seek each other from the moment of birth. Oxytocin, the hormone that causes your uterus to contract, will stimulate “mothering” feelings after birth as you touch, gaze at, and breastfeed your baby (Uvnäs-Moberg, 1998; Winberg, 2005). More oxytocin will be released as you hold your baby skin-to-skin. Your brain will release endorphins, narcotic-like hormones that enhance these mothering feelings. These hormones help you feel calm and responsive and cause the temperature of your breasts to rise, keeping your baby warm (Uvnäs-Moberg, 1998). Because of the normal “adrenaline rush” babies experience right after birth, your baby will be bright, alert, and ready to nurse soon after birth (Porter, 2004; Righard & Alade, 1990). During the hours and days following birth, you will learn to understand your baby’s cues and unique way of communicating with you.
Is that enough? because if the World health organization is not enough for you then I don't know what else to say and truly have no more time for you. I really don't know who p*ssed in your cheerios and made you such a jerk to the world. Nor do I care. My daughter read what you said about her name change, Lets just say she is not impressed with you.( putting it mildly) She wants to know by what right do you think you have the right to discuss her name changer and be offended over her personal decision? There is only two people who had an issue with her name change and they were the ones partially responsible for what she went through before we adopted her. So if you are one of these two people, I have a few choice words for you and keep my daughters name out of your mouth!
