International Blog About Boobs Week

Not sure who created this, not sure if it’s true or not, don’t know if THAT week has passed or not, not even sure who started this thing, but please feel free to track ‘em down from the blog who tagged me. That’s the little pinguin’s blog named Sentinel.

What’s this boobs thing all about? If I’m not mistaken, I need to tell a tale about anything that’s related to boobs. Well, I’m always curious about why those thing aroused most men in the world (myself included). For those of you who don’t know what that thing is, it’s called “Glandula Mamae” in latin, and the description is as follows as I quote them from wikipedia:

The breast is the upper ventral region of an animal’s torso, particularly that of mammals, including human beings. The breasts of a female primate’s body contain the mammary glands, which secrete milk used to feed infant.

Other than speaking about the sexual related issue about boobs, I prefer to talk about its milk. We all have heard about how breast milk can be more nutritious than formula milk. You can google it if you want as I am not going to copy-paste them in here but I’ll tell the tale from what I’ve read.

One of the important substances contain in milk is colostrum, which secreted in few first days after a woman gave birth to a baby (or two, or three, or whatever number of babies she delivers). It protects the baby from various infections by giving antibodies to the newly born babies. Another benefits are it contains just the right formula for the baby’s delicate digestive system, has the right nutrients for baby to quickly gain weight, has more variety in nutrition than formulated milk, and the list goes on…

From my opinion, if you’re a mother or a father, you should endorse breast feeding the baby as much as possible because from year 0 to year 5 because that is the optimal time for babies to absorb and learn everything he/she can and obviously need a lot of nutrients to support the optimal growth, development, and learning during that time.

I’m not against formula milk, but it’s best to keep breast milk as the main source of milk. if you need to use formula milk, make sure it’s complementary to breast milk, not substituting it.

To all newly borns, especially to Marsha Katarina Darmawan (JoJo’s & Frendy’s daughter), welcome to the world. Hope your life will be as fulfilling as possible. And for the parents, they’re all the greatest blessings from up above so love, nurture, guide, and protect them with all your might.

Well, that’s it…I’ve talked about boobs (or what’s in it) haven’t I? :LOL:
