I came across this study also highlighted by UNICEF displaying how breastfeeding is linked to incidence of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. While SIDS continues to baffle us all, studies have found that there is less risk when breastfed especially when the infant is exclusively breastfed.

I have also included a list of other SIDS prevention tips.

My hope for this blog is to be an avenue for my thoughts and inspirations. I hope that I can bring inspiration to others and to provoke thought. I intend to post all things involving motherhood. This space will also be a place for my loved ones across the world to stay in touch with my evergrowing family as we continue to settle in our new home. Feel free to email me your thoughts, ideas, concerns, and questions as I find everything about motherhood fascinating and always a world of exploration!
