About Me
- Nurturing mummy
- Victoria, Australia
- Single mummy, who believes we should all strive to do our best in educating ourselves in choices we make on our childrens behalfs! Worried about how much the Western society are seperating themselves from what it is to be human. Ignoring what it is to be natural and trusting ourselves, and replacing it with our inventions and thinking we can outsmart nature. This is not the future I want for my children, Annabelle 3yrs and Lucy 1yr. Most of all Im passionate to get back to basics with pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding.

Quotes, I love:)
“We found that babies who received an additional two months of full breastfeeding were over four times less likely to contract pneumonia and half as likely to suffer recurrent ear infections.”
Caroline Chantry quotes
“Child birth is one of the most natural and ancient things to occur, and the fact that 95 percent (of babies) are delivered in the hospital, and a huge percent are C-sections, is rather telling to our detachment from the process.”

What's more important?
So what is more important? Making life easier on the parents, making it more 'convienient'? Or have we lost the ability to believe in ourselves as humans and as parents?
We cut our boys to save time bathing and teaching them hygiene, we bottle feed to go back to work (instead of fighting for support to stay home) or because we believe we're not enough, we make our babies 'cry it out' to save going to them, holding them and nurturing them as it'll make us 'tired' in the morning or worried they might get to ATTACHED??!?!?!, put them in strangers care as we have been brainwashed to think WE cannot teach them the qualities they need to cope with life, and we let people whom we 'trust' inject them with GOD knows what chemical because once again we are convinced our human bodies,milk and diet are not equipped to handle things.......
Your babies, your choice YES. But how many of you can say you have enough factual based research to make informed decisions on your child's behalf?
Now I cant imagine why all mothers aren't being told all that I have learnt. We have to fight to find out? Sometimes feels like a battle already lost....
But no matter how many people scoff at me or insult me, I remember how important the war is...
This is my blog and my place to vent if I choose to!
