10 bonnes raisons d'allaiter votre bébé
Author: Bien vivre l'allaitement
Author: Madeleine AllardPublisher: Mardaga
ISBN: 2804705854
Category : Education
Languages : fr
Pages : 424
Book Description
Comment bien démarrer l’allaitement ? Que faire quand bébé a des coliques ? Comment diversifier son alimentation ? Quand et comment le sevrer ? Cet ouvrage accessible et solidement documenté fournit des réponses essentielles qui vous aideront à prendre des décisions éclairées tout au long de l’allaitement de votre enfant. Madeleine Allard et Annie Desrochers, toutes deux mères de quatre enfants, ont mis cinq ans à écrire le livre qu’elles auraient aimé avoir en main à la naissance de leurs propres bébés. Même si de nombreuses femmes allaitent aujourd’hui dès la naissance, elles n’obtiennent pas toujours l’information juste ni le soutien dont elles ont besoin. Comment traverser les moments difficiles ? Quelle diète doit adopter la mère qui allaite ? Peut-elle perdre du poids ? À travers de nombreux témoignages et une recherche rigoureuse, apprenez tout ce qu’il faut savoir pour vivre cette expérience de façon sereine. Bien vivre l’allaitement est le livre qui vous accompagnera de la première tétée jusqu’au sevrage ! EXTRAIT Poussées par notre désir de nous informer pour mieux vivre notre maternité, nous avons commencé à faire des recherches. Au départ, celles-ci n’étaient destinées qu’à nous, mais nous nous sommes rapidement aperçues qu’elles intéressaient d’autres mères. Chaque fois, la réaction était la même : pourquoi n’entendons-nous jamais parler d’allaitement ainsi ? Depuis les années 1990, la pratique de l’allaitement est stable en France. Elle se situe toutefois à un niveau inférieur à celui de nombreux pays voisins. Les spécialistes s’entendent pourtant pour dire qu’elle est ce qu’il y a de mieux pour le bébé, et deux nouveau-nés sur trois sont allaités à la naissance. Pourtant, l’expérience maternelle n’est pas toujours heureuse. Des mères vivent des difficultés dès les premières heures, certaines ne trouvent pas le soutien qu’il leur faut, d’autres se sont décourager d’allaiter pour toutes sortes de raisons injustifiées. Et il y a les femmes qui choisissent de ne pas allaiter, ou de ne pas allaiter très longtemps, qui sentent les regards de désapprobation. Il n’est pas si simple de parler d’allaitement et il ne suffit pas de dire qu’il est le « meilleur choix ». À PROPOS DES AUTEURS Madeleine Allard est rédactrice et traductrice. Annie Desrochers est journaliste et animatrice à la radio de Radio-Canada. L’une et l’autre sont mères de quatre enfants. En plus de leurs responsabilités familiales et professionnelles, elles aident depuis longtemps les femmes qui vivent des difficultés d’allaitement.

Gender really does matter, to women, to men, to young people - to all of us. This manual serves to explore these human rights issues and act upon them."--Book jacket.
The Optimal Duration of Exclusive Breastfeeding
Author: Department of Child and Adolescent HealthPublisher: World Health Organization
ISBN: 9241595647
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 53
Book Description
The longstanding debate over the optimal duration of exclusive breastfeeding has centered on the so-called "weanling's dilemma" in developing countries: the choice between the known protective effect of exclusive breastfeeding against infectious morbidity and the (theoretical) insufficiency of breast milk alone to satisfy the infant's energy and micronutrient requirements beyond 4 months of age. The primary objective of this review is to assess the effects on child health, growth, and development, and on maternal health, of exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months vs exclusive breastfeeding for 3-4 months with mixed breastfeeding (introduction of complementary liquid or solid foods with continued breastfeeding) thereafter through 6 months.

Childbirth and Authoritative Knowledge
Author: Robbie E. Davis-FloydPublisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520918738
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 525
Book Description
This benchmark collection of cross-cultural essays on reproduction and childbirth extends and enriches the work of Brigitte Jordan, who helped generate and define the field of the anthropology of birth. The authors' focus on authoritative knowledge—the knowledge that counts, on the basis of which decisions are made and actions taken—highlights the vast differences between birthing systems that give authority of knowing to women and their communities and those that invest it in experts and machines. Childbirth and Authoritative Knowledge offers first-hand ethnographic research conducted by anthropologists in sixteen different societies and cultures and includes the interdisciplinary perspectives of a social psychologist, a sociologist, an epidemiologist, a staff member of the World Health Organization, and a community midwife. Exciting directions for further research as well as pressing needs for policy guidance emerge from these illuminating explorations of authoritative knowledge about birth. This book is certain to follow Jordan's Birth in Four Cultures as the definitive volume in a rapidly expanding field. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1999.

The Independent Woman
Author: Simone De BeauvoirPublisher: Vintage

Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 162
Book Description
“Like man, woman is a human being.” When The Second Sex was first published in Paris in 1949—groundbreaking, risqué, brilliantly written and strikingly modern—it provoked both outrage and inspiration. The Independent Woman contains three key chapters of Beauvoir’s masterwork, which illuminate the feminine condition and identify practical social reforms for gender equality. It captures the essence of the spirited manifesto that switched on light bulbs in the heads of a generation of women and continues to exert profound influence on feminists today.
