We are hearing rumors of a looming Canada Post strike once again.
If the Canada Post *does* go on strike, it will interfere with our ability to deliver any Cozy Cuddles product to you (although we will try our best to come up with other means — even if we have to hand-deliver some of the more local ones!!!) or the cost may have to increase.
Thanks for your patience in this matter, and we will keep you informed.
Here’s a question we’ve had asked a couple times before, but it’s worth repeating…
Q: I’ve heard that you’re supposed to leak colostrum in late pregnancy, but I haven’t seen a drop. Does this mean I’ll have trouble breastfeeding?
A: Definitely not! In the last weeks of pregnancy, some women leak some colostrum (the yellowish, sticky "first milk"), but many do not. Whether you see it or you don’t, your colostrum is there and it will be there for your newborn as the very best first food. Colostrum is filled with energy and antibodies, and is so concentrated that your newborn only needs a small amount. It will give your baby the best possible start in the world!

Here’s a question from Kerri in North York, ON:
Q: I’m 7 months pregnant with my second, and my 12-month-old son has recently refused to nurse anymore. Is something wrong with my milk?
A: No, Kerri, there’s nothing wrong with your milk. The hormones of pregnancy will cause most women’s milk quantity to decrease, and then when they’re in their third trimester, as you are, the milk will begin to change back to the colostrum (first milk) that your newborn will need. Some nursing babies don’t mind these changes, but others will react with dislike to the different quality of your milk and may wean themselves.
