This book was released on 2016-10-01 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Table of Contents Introduction Natural Nursing Infant Formula – The First Poison You Are Feeding Your Baby The Importance of Natural Milk Lactating Mother’s Diet Colostrum Conclusion Prenatal Influence Author Bio Publisher Introduction A healthy, happy family unit is one of the most blessed things in society today. This book is the beginning of the series, which is going to tell you all about how you can keep yourself healthy naturally, and also have a healthy child. I do not care where you are from, your race, denomination, creed, religion, or caste. If you belong to the universal sisterhood of mothers, have had children, and/or have intentions of having children, this book and other books in the series are for you. These books are going to cover the psychological aspect of motherhood, with beliefs, conventions, traditions, and also how children have managed to survive naturally, even though ignorance in the ancient times and too much knowledge in the 21st century making their existence full of jeopardy. You might find some terms here, which in many parts of the world are not spoken in public, because of innate modesty, and upbringing. You may also be told about some activities which are thoroughly natural, but because of conventions or because of brainwashing have been either made taboo or things not to be discussed in general public, thanks to inhibitions. We are not living in Victorian times when maidens were told, even up to the age of 20 and if they were unmarried, that children were found under the Cabbage Patch! This is, of course, the height of absurdity, foolishness, and repression, which was the reason why so many Victorian women could not bear the marriage bed, because their mothers had told them that it was either sinful to enjoy this part of the marital bond or through sheer ignorance, and disgust in an activity which it is supposed to be crude, they did not allow themselves to take part in the physical aspect of a marriage. And that is the reason why their menfolk had mistresses, who were more practical, common, earthy, and enjoyed what the missus called “bed sport” in a prim and prudish fashion. These women thus definitely did not have any emotional attachment to their children, and once the child was born, it was given in the hands of nurses and wet nurses to be brought up far away from the sight of the mother.

Significant and positive gains have been made in lowering rates of infant mortality and morbidity from infectious diseases and accidental causes, improved access to health care, and reduction in the effects of environmental contaminants such as lead. Yet major questions still remain about how to assess the status of children's health, what factors should be monitored, and the appropriate measurement tools that should be used. Children's Health, the Nation's Wealth: Assessing and Improving Child Health provides a detailed examination of the information about children's health that is needed to help policy makers and program providers at the federal, state, and local levels. In order to improve children's health-and, thus, the health of future generations-it is critical to have data that can be used to assess both current conditions and possible future threats to children's health. This compelling book describes what is known about the health of children and what is needed to expand the knowledge. By strategically improving the health of children, we ensure healthier future generations to come.

Download or read book Parenting Matters written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of research have demonstrated that the parent-child dyad and the environment of the familyâ€"which includes all primary caregiversâ€"are at the foundation of children's well- being and healthy development. From birth, children are learning and rely on parents and the other caregivers in their lives to protect and care for them. The impact of parents may never be greater than during the earliest years of life, when a child's brain is rapidly developing and when nearly all of her or his experiences are created and shaped by parents and the family environment. Parents help children build and refine their knowledge and skills, charting a trajectory for their health and well-being during childhood and beyond. The experience of parenting also impacts parents themselves. For instance, parenting can enrich and give focus to parents' lives; generate stress or calm; and create any number of emotions, including feelings of happiness, sadness, fulfillment, and anger. Parenting of young children today takes place in the context of significant ongoing developments. These include: a rapidly growing body of science on early childhood, increases in funding for programs and services for families, changing demographics of the U.S. population, and greater diversity of family structure. Additionally, parenting is increasingly being shaped by technology and increased access to information about parenting. Parenting Matters identifies parenting knowledge, attitudes, and practices associated with positive developmental outcomes in children ages 0-8; universal/preventive and targeted strategies used in a variety of settings that have been effective with parents of young children and that support the identified knowledge, attitudes, and practices; and barriers to and facilitators for parents' use of practices that lead to healthy child outcomes as well as their participation in effective programs and services. This report makes recommendations directed at an array of stakeholders, for promoting the wide-scale adoption of effective programs and services for parents and on areas that warrant further research to inform policy and practice. It is meant to serve as a roadmap for the future of parenting policy, research, and practice in the United States.
