BENEFITS OF BREASTFEEDING

Breastfeeding Benefits

Breastmilk is easy for your baby to digest.

Breastmilk helps your baby avoid early food allergies.

Breastmilk boosts your baby’s immunity to common childhood diseases and speeds recovery from illness.

Breastmilk reduces the incidence of ear infections, allergies and diarrhea.

Benefits for mom too!

Breastmilk stimulates the hormone oxytocin, which causes your uterus to contract and return to its normal size.

Breastfeeding helps burn extra calories and lowering fat stores, enabling you to return to your prepregnancy weight more quickly.

Help, I need a Doctor

Clermont, Florida has a hospital. Clermont has many medical professionals operating in a variety of specialties. Fundamental healthcare begins with an individual or family?s access to a general physician, call it a family doctor or for children, a Pediatrician and for women a Gynecologist. Certainly, for people like me, a good therapist; better yet, a Psychiatrist! But why is it that someone in Clermont, Florida cannot locate a physician that will take new patients?
CityBlog Clermont, was struck by the frustration that was apparent in Susie Pena’s (a Clermont, Florida resident) post on May 9, 2007, which read as follows:
I have been here 1 year this June and have yet to find a doctor that will accept new patients. I am very discouraged that there is no avenue for new residents to find out who is available without a lot of labor intensive efforts.
Does Clermont have a physician association or, does the hospital know of new physicians coming into Clermont that are looking for new patients? It would behoove all communities to have some centralized service that maintains a list of physicians who can accept patients as either “new” or on a rotating basis until the new resident can establish regular healthcare.
