[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course I kiss all my children on the lips. Especially when I'm nursing them! http://breastfedblog.blogspot.com/2011/07/why-mothers-kiss-their-babies-judy-rall.html [/quote] I think you need to go back to school “When a mother kisses her baby, she ‘samples’ those pathogens that are [b]on the baby’s face[/b]. Those are ones that the baby is about to ingest." They're saying FACE not LIPS! Gross![/quote] And the mouth isn't full of disease and bacteria as previously posted? You're so cute. [/quote] Let's try again... When you kiss the lips you're disposing of your germs into your baby's mouth! You're NOT doing it when you kiss them on the cheeks or anywhere else. That's another reason why you should NOT kiss the baby's hands. OTOH, when you kiss on the cheeks you're making sure you grab those germs and make your body produce antibodies so later on baby can get those through your BM! Got it?[/quote]
