On Mothers Day Making your Mom Feel Special
It doesn’t take much to make mom feel special on her day! Maybe breakfast, maybe flowers, the choice is yours. If you give mom a special breakfast, be sure you don’t spill the beans ahead of time. Most times moms want to be there watching who is messing up her kitchen.
A good idea for mom for Mothers Day is make her breakfast and serve her in bed. If you choose to serve mom breakfast you may want to plan ahead. If you plan on flowers, make sure you order them early so that they arrive a day before.
If you plan on having mom over for a wonderful dinner you plan to cook, tell her that you want to surprise her, not to make any plans for that evening. If she has made plans ask her if you can do it the next night or the night before. Don’t tell her what you are doing, just ask her to dinner.
A few decorations for mom, you can get a few balloons that are filled with helium and decorate her chair with them. Instead of giving big gifts, it’s the little thanks that are more appreciated. Have the grandkids make her a card, by hand. This too is a tear jerker! Moms love hand made items. They appreciate the time it took to make such things.
After dinner, make her a special cupcake dessert. By having cupcakes, there is not too much of a mess, no extras! Have the kids decorate the cupcakes but have one set aside that they all do together, this is her special one! For this moms will appreciate their day and feel special.

Breastfeeding In Public – Tips For New Mothers
Breast feeding you child, makes sense because there is less to put in the diaper bag; making it easier to
transport baby and easier to comfor him or her at any given time. There are concerns mothers face when breast feeding, one of which is nursing in public. The concern usually takes a heavy toll on women more than the actual task of nursing. More often, the only people that take notice are the mothers who are breast feeding their own chldren.
Most women have discoverd discreet approaches in breast feed in public, as not to offend other people in the area. If you are out with a friend or partner, you can ask their assistance, by providing cover while you prepare to nurse. Once your baby is feeding you can adjust your clothing to cover what he or she is not, of your body. Other mothers incorporate a recieving blanket placed over thier shoulder that also covers their baby’s head.
When you are a visitor in someone’s home you may choose to use an empty room, so those around you don’t become uncomfortable. If you are in a shopping mall or restaurant, you may choose to breast feed in the restroom or in your car, for added privacy.
Many public restrooms are becoming baby friendly. They have been equipped with benches or a chair and changing table. Many shopping malls now provide special “mother rooms” so you can breast feed in private. This helps with sensitive babies; that get distracted by the public and won’t nurse. However, babies adapt quickly and will quickly learn to nurse without fussing.
Another option for mother that breast feed; is pumping your milk before you leave home, then offer your baby bottles in public. Remember, there is a draw back to this option. Offering an infant the artificial nipples on bottles early in the first weeks can and most likely will interfere with the ability to breast feed.
When deciding to breast feeding in public places, always do whatever you find works best. remember, the first weeks of breast feeding, it is just as new for you and your new baby. In time, you’ll both have no problem with the task of breast feeding.
If at any time you are not comfortable nursing in a location, you should no attempt the task. You must be able to be comfortable and relaxed; you baby will sense your tension and fuss instead of nursing. When your baby senses you’re comfortable and relaxed, he or she will not have a problem nursing. The two of you will do fine.
