Sinead Hoben - ArticlesSinead Hoben is the proud mum of three beautiful children aged 6 years, 3 years and 9 months old all of whom were breastfed. She is currently still breastfeeding her youngest child. A qualified English teacher, she now runs her own website, http://www.breastfeedingmums.com, which addresses many of the concerns of breastfeeding mothers and offers breastfeeding support and advice to both breastfeeding and expectant mothers.
Preparing for PregnancyUnfortunately, many women are already two weeks pregnant by the time a missed period confirms it. But, by making early preparations you can give both yourself and your baby the very best chances of a successful pregnancy and healthy baby. Breastfeeding and Sibling RivalryIntroducing a newborn brother or sister into a family can be an extremely exciting time for everyone involved. But it can also cause feelings of loss for younger children and they can react destructively. Understandably, younger children may feel put out and threatened by the new addition to the family. And family life can become fraught. Breastfeeding Mums Need To Talk!Breastfeeding can be an isolating experience. A new mum, breastfeeding for the first time, can feel cut off from family and friends if they are unsupportive or simply do not understand her motives... A Laptop of My OwnWorking from home day after day and night after night on a borrowed laptop is no fun. Especially when it is borrowed back off you. So, for that reason, I feel the time has come for a laptop of my own. Bathing A Newborn BabyDo you want your baby handed to you immediately after the birth or should he be cleaned first? In recent years most babies were wiped down with a towel immediately after birth before mum or dad got a chance to hold them. Nowadays choice is the keyword! It's your decision. Weaning A Breastfed BabyWhen to wean is a question facing all breastfeeding mums. How does a new mum know when to introduce solid food into her baby's diet and what sort of food can a baby eat? The Family BedThere's an old tradition in Ireland, the wake bed, a family bed where the dead are waked. Well, the family bed takes on a whole new meaning when you have children: the awake bed! A Picture of PerfectionNever work with children or animals... easier said than done when you're a parent. Over the last few years I have tried many times to get the perfect photograph. Changing A NappyCongratulations! It's a boy... or a girl... You've imagined those words throughout your nine magical months. But, what you probably have not thought about is the part where you need to put a fresh nappy on the little person! How To BreastfeedWhen my first baby was handed to me I wasn't sure what to do. Of course I was thrilled, overwhelmed, ecstatic and emotional but I had told everyone I was going to breastfeed. Now she was here and I was expected to get on with it, put her to my breast and nourish her... Well to be quite honest I was a little bit afraid.
