Breastfeeding is associated with a lower risk of breast and ovarian cancer, offering an important long-term health benefit for parents. It reduces lifetime exposure to estrogen, delays ovulation, and supports healthy breast cell differentiation - factors that work together to help protect against cancer. And, in general, the longer one breastfeeds, the greater the protective effect.

Yes, the house looks messy and the to-do list didn't move. But your baby doesn't know what a to-do list is.

Your baby knows they were hungry and you showed up, over and over, for twelve hours straight. You kept baby clean, warm and cared for.

That's not a day where nothing happened. That's a day where everything happened.

In this season of life, chores can wait or be done by someone else. You're doing the real work that matters the most: caring for your baby.
