APRIL 20, 1983 — A15_ New baby needn't mean drastic change, La Leche league. hears 'Correspondent MRS. BERTHA MacGREGOR 2112.2112C La Leche League in Huron County - South met at Exeter at the home of Mrs. , B. , DeJonge. Women and ttd- ren from Varna, Bru field, Hensall, Exeter, V aatsal and Crediton were present. Discussion was on the art of breastfeeding and over- coming difficulties that may arise. Leaving baby and getting awayy�byyoneself or with your husand was a great concern. It was pointed out by mothers present that it is natural for the new mother to want to be dear her newborn and usually we are unhappy if we spent too much time apart from our infants. Society has encouraged women to get await to take a break but mot /instincts tell us to stay close to protect and meet our babies' needs whenever they appear in early months of life. This conflict can be confusing for new mothers and can add to the 'stress of parenting. Mothers can be separated From their children, however d is usually so easy to bring baby along, especially one that is nursing. There is no need for parents to resent this new change in lifestyle. Tiny babies are not diffi- cult to take along to parties. In the early months they •usually need to be fed and diapered and re content to go back to slee or look about m their carbe s. Dressed for the weather, babies can go to ball games, to the beach and usually sleep through \the drive-in movie. Parente -act- ivities are only limited by parents' imagination. Life does not have to change dramatically with the birth of a child. It was mentioned that having more than one child usually life is more restricted because there are mo a people's needs to be cher: Older brothers and sisters may want to do things, be places, need their parents help in different ways.
