Sabbath Stirpes Magic refers to a form of mystical practice that is associated with the Sabbath, which is traditionally a day of rest in several religions. This type of magic is often seen as a way to harness the unique energy that is present during this sacred day and use it for various purposes. In many cultures, the Sabbath is believed to be a time when the veil between the physical and spiritual worlds is thin, allowing for easier communication and interaction with supernatural forces. This is why it is often considered a potent time for performing magical rituals and spells. Sabbath Stirpes Magic involves the use of specific herbs, plants, and ritual tools to draw upon the energy of the Sabbath and direct it towards a specific intention. These intentions can vary, ranging from protection and healing to love and prosperity.
Be sure, too, that you have a talk with your childcare provider about the way your baby likes to feed. If she is used to formula-fed babies, she may be used to encouraging the baby to take more at every feeding. With breastfeeding, we are all about letting the baby make that decision. And we don’t want to stretch the baby’s stomach so that they are constantly uncomfortable.
That s why you keep your baby close at first I like breastfeeding is a womb with a view to remember this , and basically nurse your brains out in the first days to jump start your supply. I often help moms learn how to guide their baby at least 2 months old into an age-appropriate sleep routine which includes offering to nurse before each nap in addition to anytime baby cues.
These intentions can vary, ranging from protection and healing to love and prosperity. There are often specific rituals and incantations associated with Sabbath Stirpes Magic, which are believed to enhance the effectiveness of the magic being performed. These rituals may involve the creation of an altar, the burning of candles, the recitation of prayers or chants, and the use of specific herbs or objects.
Breast Storage Capacity
Do you ever wonder why some breastfeeding moms and babies seem like they can happily go 3, even 4 hours between feedings while other babies are hungry for feedings every 1.5-2 hours? Or why some chunky babies are sleeping through the night while other moms lose their milk supply and baby stops growing when baby sleeps through the night?
The answer is usually basic anatomy. Something lactation professionals refer to as Breast Storage Capacity. You may be under the impression that if you have a healthy milk supply your baby's suckling at the breast will turn on a milk faucet that lets out as much milk as baby is willing to drink. In reality, the milk your baby gets at a feeding has been gradually building up in your breasts ever since his previous breastfeeding. The amount of milk your breasts can comfortably "store" between feedings is called your Breast Storage Capacity. It is determined by the number of mammary glands - also called lobules and ducts - that are in your breast.
Studies show some women have as few as 3 milk lobules/ducts and others as many as 15. As a result the amount of milk that can fit in a woman's breasts varies - anywhere from 2.5oz to 5oz combined is average but some women can store as much as 10 oz in one breast (this is very unusual). Think of it this way: your breasts are like cups in more ways than one - some women have a shot glass and some have a tumbler. Either way, baby can take in as much milk as he needs in a day (average is 27oz from 1-6 months) but a baby utilizing a shot glass will have to return to the "tap" much more frequently than a baby drinking from a large tumbler.
Its even more amazing than this. When baby empties your "cup" of breastmilk, your body knows it and sends signals to turn the faucet on higher - to speed up milk production and more quickly refill the cup for the next feeding. However, when milk sits in your "cups" for extended periods (i.e. sleeping through the night ) or if your body senses the milk is nearing the full capacity it can store - an opposite signal is sent - slow down milk production . Your body is constantly interpreting baby's milk removal and your breast fullness as an indication of whether to make more or less milk, and whether to make it quickly or slowly. Your body aims to keep your milk supply just right for baby's needs through a genius interaction between your milk storage capacity and baby's feeding demands.
At this point, you may be wondering… Am I a shot glass or tumbler? How can I tell? Breastmilk storage capacity is not always related to breast size (some women simply carry more fat in their breasts, not necessarily more milk lobules/ducts where the milk is stored), so looks can be deceiving. The good news is, your baby will tell you .
At first, newborn feeding patterns are all over the place since newborns have such tiny tummies (the size of a marble at birth!), so no matter how abundant your milk, feedings will be small and frequent. During the first days and weeks you will get to know your baby's feeding cues - the universal language of babies that communicates their need to nurse for hunger, thirst and comfort. Those frequent feedings in the first two weeks play a very important role in activating your milk glands. If all the glands aren't "activated" by frequent feedings the first two weeks, your body won't be able to utilize your maximum storage capacity later. You can initiate breastfeeds in addition to responding to your baby's feeding cues to ensure your milk supply gets off to a great start. She will eventually settle into a rhythm that fits her metabolism, personality, and your breast storage capacity. After 4 weeks, you may be able to identify your breastmilk capacity by looking at baby's feeding frequency, your pumping output (only applicable if you pump regularly), and baby's milk transfer at the breast (determined by a breastfeeding professional by weighing baby before and after feeding).
Average milk intake (25-30oz) stays constant from 1-6 months of age, so most babies don't drop feedings over time unless mom has a tumbler size storage capacity. Popular infant schedules on the market that focus on dropping feeds as babies get older and sleep training are not compatible with successful breastfeeding for most women as they do not take each woman's unique anatomy into account. This includes including Babywise , Moms on Call, and Taking Cara Babies. However, older babies do tend to move some nighttime feedings into the daytime as their circadian rhythm develops - a blessing for sleep deprived mothers everywhere who would rather feed frequently in the day than at night! Babies also get faster and more efficient at breastfeeding, so a nursling who took 30 minutes to nurse as a newborn may take only 10-15 minutes as a 4 month old. Older babies are more likely to have a predictable feeding pattern/routine , especially if they have a nap schedule. I often help moms learn how to guide their baby (at least 2 months old) into an age-appropriate sleep routine which includes offering to nurse before each nap in addition to anytime baby cues. The app Huckleberry is also useful for understanding your baby's sleep needs. The more you focus on learning and responding to baby's feeding and sleep cues the first two months, the easier it is to identify their ideal routine later.
One of the most important take-aways with your new understanding of milk storage capacity is not to compare you and your baby's feeding rhythm to other mothers and babies. Each mother/baby pair has a unique rhythm that should be respected and embraced, since doing so is the key to a truly happy, successful breastfeeding experience. The other take-away is that your baby is your best expert on setting a feeding rhythm, since s/he will naturally adapt a feeding pattern that fits his individual intake.
