Health unit event celebrates breastfeeding week
Celebrate Canadian Breast-
feeding Week with mothers
and the Huron County Health
Unit on October 4 in Clinton.
Past and present breast-
feeding mothers, along with
the people who have sup-
ported them, are invited to a
morning cafe from 10 a.m. to
noon on Saturday, October 4.
The event will take place at the
Jacob Memorial Building on
77722D London Road, south
of Clinton near the Health
Unit.
The cafe is co -hosted by
MILKS (Mothers Initiating
Lactation Knowledge and
Support). MILKS is a peer
group of breastfeeding moms
who offer support, informa-
tion and experiences with
each other around nurturing
their infants. Mothers need
inspiring stories from other
mothers to get through the
rough days and enjoy the
great days. MILKS has a Face -
book page and monthly group
meetings in Wingham,
Goderich and Hensall.
Peer support, such as
MILKS, is important for
breastfeeding mothers, as are
communities that promote
baby -friendly mindsets.

Baby -Friendly Practices
encourage moms to make
decisions on how they feed
their babies based on factual
information and weighing the
benefits, risks, and impact on
their infants and themselves.
Breast milk is the natural
and healthiest food for new-
borns. Health Canada recom-
mends babies receive only
breast milk for the first six
months of life. At six months,
introduce iron -rich solid
foods and continue breast
milk to two years and beyond.
Skin -to -skin contact and fol-
lowing the baby's cues while
feeding all promote healthy
development and reduce
stress in infants.
Cafe guests will learn more
information about the Baby -
Friendly Initiative and how
our community can get
involved.
Canadian Breastfeeding
Week is October 1-7, 2014.

The missing moose
Tara Ostner
The Clinton News Record
Attention all kids: the
famous moose at the Clin-
ton library has gone missing
and the library needs your
help to find him!
The moose has been sitting
at the first table in the children's
department of the library read-
ing books all month long and
the librarians think that he
might have decided to go on
his own adventure!
Please drop by the Clinton
library throughout the
month of October to receive
clues about where he might
be and a booklet to help you
track your search. And
remember to check back
often because each week
there will be a different clue
about where he might be.
Please help the Clinton
library find their cher-
ished moose!
