Meeting of the fragility and the protector

First breastfeed - one can see the infusion on the mom's hand

A comfortable armchair in mom's bedroom that is important

Mom's bed and some pretty comfortable pillows are also essential

Being skin to skin, being reassured is essential for the newborn

Drinking well (and eating well) to foster "milk coming-in" and avoid feeling of thirst by the mom

Never forget stimulation and emptying of breast IS essential

To the warm source (signed by the Dad!) "A la source chaude"

Better at breast than in a crib, I am kept warm, I hear the cardiac rythm of mom, and that reassures me... I wanna stay here!!

Burried in the closest against mom who protects me......

An early contact is that good for the child, who feels reassured, for the mom who finally meets her baby... that is also all good for lactation....

That small - that fragile.... Areola which smells good is enlarged, browny, and therefore indicates to the baby that it is "here" that things are happening

We meet each others

First breastfeed for twins

Checking for a good latch - try not to pull out on the skin

Face still redish, collyrium still visible in the eyes, baby breastfeeds for the hug and for survival

Milky pleasures-milky delights

PDad is really carefull to the feeding at breast... His hugs, his way to bring baby to breast, make him an active member of breastfeeding - breastfeeding team

Dad is really carefull to the feeding at breast... His hugs, his way to bring baby to breast, make him an active member of breastfeeding - breastfeeding team

Lying down, I feed at breast and I sleep... but do not worry, I will be able to sleep less quite soon, ah ah ah

Wearing an hospital coat ("américaine")

First hours, back to home

A cap to keep warm, arms of mom, that is what I need

First hours at breast - well positionned, well helped, simultaneous breastfeeding becomes possible

The closeness and the availability of mom's body calms me

Gaze Tenderness

Bracelet, infusion, love and milk

So so small.... but if let in peace her/his naturel skills express

The smallest youngest can be helped, si one massages the breast to empty it a little

Isn't that guy beautiful????

Care - love - breastfeeding is sharing, that simply

Well-being for two, on colored hot tones

Aged a very few days - that small..... hug-at-breast that protecting

Comfort and relaxation

An intense gaze: my mom

Settled in the breastfeeding pillow

Friendly Milky Meeting

During first month and maybe the following months, long life to breatfeeding pillow

A comfortable armchair and I am looking at you

The face burried in the maternal milky heat

Who said pleasants and feminine bras can't be found for breastfeeding? breastfeeding bras pleasant to wear and pleasant to be looked at

First month- elders are really very attentive; sharing feeds at breast helps to all feel close from each others

First month, naturally, nature

Privacy coziness on pastel tones

Safe under colored tones

Long live the hammock! Mom is having rest and I, on her, I feed at breast!

Baby protected safe between hand and maternel breast

Portrait of a breastfeeder

Light on a young breastfeeder

Glance from a kind of sassy

Plunging view - portrait "au tétou" "tétou" is a regional name like "boob"

half-light fading at "au tétou" one can guess a smile in the eyes."tétou" is a regional name like "boob"

Portrait tenderness

Private scene on pastel background

Luminosity - black and white

"Rapousein" (note: that is the name of the file sent by the parents; which could be translated by "rapoubreast")

A cuddle both together (but then why isn't there some final "s" at the end, we are two still!!!)

Ray of light

Feeding at breast that is also read and learn sometimes - reading whist breastfeeding

Portrait on a Cacharel Perfume color background

Well settled close to the breast of mom

PPortrait tenderness, hot colors - somewhat South America colors

Full-face having used an filter with the image retouching software (a filter but no coffee grounds)

Contact - black and white

Evening wear dressed up with a bustier

Yummy Yummy thousands of milk delights

Mom stays by her babies while feeding one of them at breast

Picture taken thru the window of the NICU - premature twins

A very small baby

Mom of twins - the less apart from them as it can be

Small breastfeeder with a tube! Everything is possible!!

A cap for staying well warm

Bottles and really unfriendly, unkind remarks, but these small sweeties became with the will of their mom, two 15-month-old and still breastfed toddlers

Hilarious, I am having a ball in front of the picture taking

Convenient for nourrishing and quench the thirst of the baby or the toddler

In the maternity bedroom

Commented by the mom: "Photo chock"- not meaning chocking picture

Breastfeeding pillow, that convenient for duets on the sofa

At the maternity

Well comfortable Small Angels

Peaceful

"A strong support (moral support and not only technical), from the start, that is really important", says this mom

Toddlers, already

Technical glance from the mom on one of the breastfeeders

One is breastfeeding, the other burps; a good idea when one baby (always the same) burps or hiccups whilst the feeding at breast

Twins ; often there is NICU behind, and for example: breastfeedings "one at a time" while stroking the other twin who is staying in the cot

Rare picture taken from "above" the small guys

Well comfortably settled

when children have become large, they position themselves and breastfeeds can be also games and cuddles

Twins, relations of exchanges between children and mom (and the dad who is behind the camera)

"Photo choc", dixit the mom

the double of the evening, children don't want to wait after the other so they settle themselves, sitting one on each side

Well comfortable

Very rare view, this is a picture taken from above

One is in a somewhat classical position, the otherlays his head on the belly of his twin and stays in football position ("ballon de rugby" in french)

Do you know I am at the origin of the RUGBY position NAME; football position means american football; the closest in France is rugby

Small Cherub

Another rare picture, view "from above", and crossed hands.... Fraternal Love in the milky sharing

"A table for two", from an active mom helping the ADJ+

ADJ+ means Allaitement Des Jumeaux et Plus so Breastfeeding Twins and +

Milky Profile of a small sweetie, cuddly but cheeky; he saw he was taken in picture

Simultaneous breastfeeding, two breasts, and two hands, for twins, does not put a stop to a short-individual-tête-à-tête moment

Sometimes a child regurgitates, under the milky breasty pressure induced by the twin; so just a bib and it is done

Do you know that english "bib" is the abbreviation of french biberon which is a bottle to feed the baby

Mom gives breast, while the elder is playing

A big sister well paying close attention

At the maternity, this little boy precizes "this is my young sister, she is 2 days old and she drinks only good milk"

A cuddle both together (but then why isn't there some final "s" at the end, we are two still!!!)

"Mom totally peaceful with her children"

Breast given to a bigger sister to embrace the family, not exclude the bigger children, and help at the start of a quite sleepy baby

"The welcoming of a bigger brother and a pretty small little sister aged 5 days"

"A cuddle all together during holidays"

"A cuddle all together"

Oh how beautiful it is!

Milky games

One breast + milk + .. ho a photographer!! Hey, helloooo!!!

Hmm well no well listen... I prefer the breast of my mom whatever!

Sharing of a cuddle; who said that the bigger bros-sisters are afraid that the wenly borned baby could "eat" their mom?? (bad and unfounded belief)

The shared feed at breast, and the fraternal cuddle too....

With the cuddly toy

Please tell me mom, do you believe there will still be some for me??? of course my sweetie

Feeding at breast is that good; it massages my skull and it peaces me that well, thank you mom!

Burp

Funny I had nothing to translate here

A newborn full

Baby aged about 2 months - we will note the beautiful pillow: nourishing and baby-blocker

a replete baby

one is almost full, somewhat falling asleep, while his twin is practicing actively

Warm under the quilt-duvet, all resting

Sleeping while the sweetie is breastfeeding

Breastfeed-Cuddle-sleep under colored sheets

Câlin-dodo sous les draps colorés

One hour of life and already sleeping, well sheltered and warm

Body clothe close to the skin and bras - for a large contact surface

But.. who is the most deeply sleepy? Babies or mom??

Please do NOT conclude breastfeeding is tiring; being mom of twins is tiring

Sleeping for the child, maternel admiration face to the child, at least I have him/her for myself alone

Aged one hour and already sleeping, protected, and warm

Sleepy close the the protective breast

toddler girl

At the hotel during holidays, 13 months; there is one child missing - in the arms of the daddy!

Toddlers aged 7 months

"Table? Sleeping? or both at the same time for the toddler??

In-coming of the camera draws attention of the child, who may or may not, absolutely release the breast

Breastfeeds are expressive, sharings are intenses, what ever the age is

Computer switched on may be fascinating but... facing the maternal breast there is no competition...

Whenever comfort is mandatory for the mom, a feed at breast can be improvised whenever and wherever

Breastfeeding is still practical to the toodler!! Yes of course, the "mobile restaurant" is carried everywhere

In the bedroom of the toodler

A breastfeed does not exclude the rest of the familial circle

A cap on the head and the breast of mom, to protect me

Rocked by the maternal breath

Mid-way baby-toddler

At the hotel, during holidays; that is for the second twin

Breastfeeding - happy as a lark under canary yellow background color

French expression entails pinson and not alouette still it is a bird too

Feed at breast cuddle always available even on a baby changing table

With the cuddly toy

Breastfeeding

Breastfeed for a large boy; yes, it is normal

Exams on teeths reveals time weaning to be between 5 and 7 years-our Biological History

Toddler on a rays and square background - geometry!!

Stylish suit

Stylish black and white

Sometimes it is when bath is over that one loves the breastfeed

Somewhat kama-soutra-ish, that is the preferred way of breastfeeding of this "young toddler"

Pleasures of the bath, discovery of the skin, back to uterine life

Skin to skin, milky skin

The cuddly toy also benefits from milky contact

Sea crossing

When hours are less hot practical for nourishing and quench thirst baby or toddler

Babies aren't supposed to be outside during hot very sunny hours

The by-standers come by; I do cuddle-feed-at-breast

Walk on the banks of the revers - always ready!!

The sky, the water, the Nature, the Mother, and the child

&quo;hey not donkey, not donkey" - long live the breastfeed that reassures and allows the child to eventually appreciate the walk

On the beach, two babies happy and full

Playing on words is less easy sometimes - deux bébés contents et contentés

Nobody is refusec to go to the beach, milk is ready

Remember no child outside when hot hours

In a city park

In a garden

Everywhere even when traveling

In a car... on a rest area or a parking lot anyway

Protected against the wind, the tides, the storms

Hilarious!

Breastfeed on a bed of greenery

How practical is the hammock

"from all memories of cow, one had never seen that"

When breastfeeding, one can feed everywhere, even there is an unplanned stop

Availability of cuddle and nourishment while treking all day long

In the shade in a garden

Refreshments.....

Breastfeed in the coolness of a verdurous garden...

Comfortable in the deckchair....

Breastfeeding in a cool air verdurous garden....

Meeting of two breastfeeding mothers - an ordinary milky and friendly day

Easy everywhere in the hammock

Dad is holding a baby in his arms and mom is breastfeeding the twin

Bucolic mealtime - an ordinary milky and friendly day

Feed at Breast in a bustier dress

Mom is breastfeeding her newborn and the godmother is cuddling the twin who was operated that same day

Touched gaze of a grand-ma or grand-grand-ma

Heat of the room, heat of the maternal love, heat of the milky sharing

Could it be a picture just to inspire a birth announcement?

Drive-in (or breastfeeding at the bar???)

Ah, I am having a whale of a time!!

A move in direction of the photographer

Always ready!!

I also give breast... numerous children who observe breastfeedings, will imitate their mom, thus will breastfeed their cuddly toy, their doll...

Move to a latch

Mimicry... the model... as many milky chances for the next generation... of babies and dolls

Move to the latch - on the right

One of the most educational pictures - 1

One of the most educational pictures - 2

Oh those cameras then....

If you don't mind I have a breast to empty...

Yummy yummy milky delights... that was that good that I have fallen asleep - from far

Yummy yummy milky delights... that was that good that I have fallen asleep - from near

Distracted by the photographer

Another picture again??? and what about me, then??

I really don't care.... after all it is that good ... I am going back to breast

A mom of twins, but on the pictures, it is well and truly the same cheeky

The child opens widely the mouth before latching on the areola

WORKING AND BREASTFEEDING OUR DAUGHTER - Article R224-1 the duration of one hour the moms benefit from for breastfeeding their children is divided into 2 periods of 30 mn, one during the morning period of work the other during the afternoon

Twins at breast, the phone, and the notebook. NO it is NOT Françoise Coudray, from ADJ+, but it was exactely like this when my children were younger
