Jamie Lynn Spears is a role model for young women everywhere… No, seriously! She may be a teenage mom, but Jamie has started out as a good one, making the right choices for her baby – starting with her decision to breastfeed.
So what’s the controversy? Semi-nude photos of Jamie Lynn, 17, nursing her baby Maddie, have recently appeared on the Internet. As it turns out, Wal-Mart is NOT the best place to get pictures of an exposed celebrity breast developed. But with a little professional spin, this mini-scandal might actually highlight the benefits of breastfeeding, and do some good.
After all, breastfeeding is highly beneficial for infants. Studies have shown that breastfeeding can help to raise a baby’s IQ by as many as eight points. Breastfed babies are also less likely to suffer from infections and less likely to be overweight.
Jamie Lynn gets something out of breastfeeding too. When her baby nurses, Jamie’s body responds by releasing the hormone oxytocin, which encourages her to bond with her baby and helps to shrink her uterus. Plus, she’s burning an extra 500 calories a day by breastfeeding! So with a little bit of luck, Jamie Lynn and Maddie will BOTH grow up to be happy, healthy adults! - celebrity.rightpundits.com
