Hello all,

Wanted to share with you. I received a 1951 edition of Parents'  
Magazine, Baby Care Manual.  There was an ad for the "Anti-Colic"  
Nurser, which is a bottle.  I have not read through it yet, but there  
is one article titled, "How to handle Eating."  It says, "Self- 
regulation is the new term for a comfortable sort of collaboration  
which encourages new mothers to follow their babies' lead in  
determining their own best times for eating and sleeping...It takes  
awhile for a  new baby to get used to nursing. Be gentle and quiet  
with him while he learns...Children love to explore the food they  
eat...."

There is another article, "I Nursed my Baby."     " A mother who  
succeeded in breast-feeding her second baby for nine happy months  
tells how she overcame sore nipples and other nursing difficulties  
and maintained her full milk supply until time to wean..."  There is  
a picture of a nurse bringing a baby to a mom in a hospital with the  
caption: "A hungry baby is brought to his mother. With their nursing  
relationship well begun, they can look forward to many satisfying,  
relaxed hours together...."
