But new research suggests the problem, which can lead to dehydration and serious illness, is actually very rare. Now, the researchers behind the study are calling for better support for breastfeeding mothers to prevent them turning to bottle-feeding. Doctors in Bradford and Sheffield collected details of all of the cases of severe neonatal hypernatraemia – where babies lose weight and become dehydrated due to lack of milk - between May 2009 and June 2010. In that time, Dr Sam Oddie and his colleagues found that there were only 62 cases, The Guardian reported.  This equates to seven cases for every 100,000 live births. Anne Woods, deputy programme manager for Unicef’s Baby Friendly Initiative – a programme which encourages hospitals to train staff in providing breastfeeding support – told the paper that the number of babie...

Waje Body Show Off Was A Strategy; Still Hunting For Husband It appears the whole drama of taking off her clothes during the shoot of her video is a gimmick to show the guys that she's still got 'hot body' despite being a single mother. Her relationship with the man who impregnated her didn't work out, so she is hunting for a new man.  Below is what Singer Waje said about the kind of man she wants:  "I want a man who fears God. A man who is confident and comfortable and would not be intimidated by things that come with what I do. I know what it is to be talking with a friend and somebody you don't know from Adam would come to excuse you and say 'I want to take a picture with you'. It keeps going on and on.
