This week we celebrate International Breastfeeding
Week! To all the mums who are ready at any time of the day to feed our newborns
... You rock! This week is your week. And men, give your females an extra
pampering.
Breastfeeding in Flanders is on the rise. Also in
2020, the proportion of newborns starting breastfeeding increased further.
Thus, 81.4% of breastfed infants start breastfeeding at 24 hours; after 6 days,
it is still 77%. This is an increase of 4% compared to 2014. Mommies, we're
proud of you!
One thing that is often forgotten is that
breastfeeding not only involves organizational challenges and exhausting
nights, but many women also face discomforts such as pain, nipple fissures or
hormonal changes.
For instance, prolactin hormone stimulates milk
production but also interferes with ovulation. So this hormone inhibits your
fertility and keeps other hormones like estrogen and progesterone at low
levels. This lowered estrogen level regularly results in vaginal dryness.
But no worries! We've got your back! Shinn and the
Intimate Oil Spray can help relieve these discomforts. Our oil nourishes,
protects, and repairs intimate skin and combats vaginal ailments such as
itching, irritation, or burning sensations. Apply the oil morning and evening
and feel the soothing effects of our formula.
