Being a working woman and proudly a mother of two children I consider breast feeding as one of my greatest and satisfying achievements. I couldn’t do it properly and efficiently; lacking the support of my husband, employees and colleagues. Problem rises when someone closer to you doesn’t understand the value of mother’s breast feeding. At the birth of my first baby my husband was convinced to use breast pumps for expressing milk.
With the popularity of breast pumps and as it is getting common among mothers of all backgrounds, users do speak on its disadvantages. Every mother wants some complete solution. Working mothers have various responsibilities along with professional roles. Mothers can get rid of providing support to home, children and husband. These duties create hurdles towards his child’s care. Although mothers use breast pumps but can’t feed her baby in regular proper manner which a baby required. Choosing breast pumps and using it to express milk to store in bags or bottles is not appreciated by all mothers. Baby also needs mother’s presence and love along with her breast milk, which is most beneficial for child’s growth. Mother’s touch and kisses develop the feelings of love and protection, where as when mother’s speak and look at her baby’s eyes, it creates the sense of confidence and makes baby active and more reactive. These things play a vital role in building the foundation of a child’s personality. This dilemma can be resolved by providing total protection and care, while at home. So before leaving and after coming back from office, mothers should give positive time and care to their babies, in order to cover this gaps. Similarly care taker in mother’s absence can play a vital role, not only in feeding breast milk of baby’s mother but also pampering and protecting child from hazards. So women must take breast pumps as the best alternative for breast feeding but must aware to deliver quality time and facilities for child’s development.
I experienced and believed that UK mothers should only use the trusted things for their babies. Mothers usually buy products for daily usage. Every mother has its own choice of selection, some preferred low price and medium quality, some medium price and quality and some only rely on quality products may be of high price. My experience says that we shouldn’t compromise on quality. Products which are required by child and even in daily usage should be of good quality. Mothers have to buy good quality and trusted nappies, milk storage bottles and breast pumps, as all items used for baby feeding and safety are mostly responsible for child’s health. So the mothers have to be more efficient and conscientious about child’s health and proper growth. Try to use and buy those breast pumps which are easy to use and handle and express milk. Similarly microwave oven, iron, refrigerators and other kitchen items all should be of good quality and reliable to use.
My Life is full of tiring. I want some change! I need big change in my life. I don't want to get use to of sacrificing my life. I know my responsibility is more towards taking care of each and every one in family. Why society has put most of the pressure on my shoulders? Do I have more potential to do so or just because of that the women is being used and restricted to follow all instructions from man’s society. Women are being misused by men all over the world. They are just enforcing responsibilities on us, those which men don't like to do. I have to work out side, I have to do cooking, shopping, washing, giving birth and taking care of babies and taking care of all family members. As a response I receive absolutely tiredness; in support husband Love does initiate a bit to decrease this tiredness. My babies need more love. When I store my breast milk in bottles for later use and than it is being given baby care takers to feed; I never like it. I don't want to use breast pumps to express my milk. Sometimes I think “I by no means would continue preventing my child from my pure Love”. But it doesn’t seem to happen soon. I wish I have more but real potentials to get rid of non sense tiring work, use of breast pumps and getting less satisfaction from husband dues to depression. I do have some hope because women are getting more aware of their needs and rights in today’s world. I wish to have some change soon!
