The concept of mother is undoubtedly one of the richest and most complex of the concepts related to living beings. It can be approached from very different perspectives, both biological and social, individual or group.
The notion of mother is also essential for the idea of survival of a race or group of living beings since she is in charge to ensure the offspring and she who also lives within her organism the gestation of the new living being to be born in the future close.>
In biological terms, the mother is the living being, female, who has had offspring, who has given birth to another living being after an appropriate gestation time that varies according to the type of living being to which we refer. In this sense, being a mother is something that most living beings of the female sex become when they are fertilized and procreate a new living being. Although for such a wonderful phenomenon to take place the participation of male living beings, they are not biologically prepared to conceive and give birth to other living beings, but they are actively participate in fertilization and therefore are a fundamental part when the females of some species become in mothers.
A fundamental bond in every aspect, physical, social, affective ...
In social terms, the mother is the first individual that the animal comes into contact with once it is born. Thus, from this, a deep bond is established between mother and child, a bond that can hardly be destroyed (or at least through great pain). The mother then becomes the protector and the person responsible for the care of this new living being, at the same time that this care has to do not only with that specific living being but also with the survival of the entire race. The mother can never stop being a mother once she has given birth.
Let's go to a concrete example in this sense of the role of care and survival that a human mother displays in relation to her newborn child. Once the woman gives birth to her baby, he will need her mother because it is precisely her mother who will provide him with the essential food that demand in its first days, and months: breast milk.
The relevance of the food our mother provides us
The breastfeeding process is one of the most important and crucial in the development of the new human life. Breastfeeding, as it is also called, is the best and most complete food that the baby has to grow accordingly, and of course the mother is fundamental in it.
Studies carried out in this regard confirm that if the baby was fed during the first three months of his life with your mother's milk you will have less chance of contracting some complex diseases such as respiratory And, of course, if breastfeeding continues beyond time this benefit for the Health will be greater
Mothers' milk is nutritious and is the most complete food that the baby can receive, more than 400 hyper-nutritive substances it contains, including in them hormones and components that prevent diseases, as we have already pointed out, and that are not found in the artificial milks that are they market.
And on the other hand, we cannot ignore the close, intimate and love pure that allows you to start breastfeeding with the baby, because it will also be nourished by all the love of his mother. That direct contact with the skin, with the smell of mom and the safety that the child feels in those arms is incomparable and will undoubtedly have super positive effects on the child.
Finally, in individual terms, it is important to point out that the experiences that a mother experiences are indescribable and unique. Each mother experiences such a situation differently, but it is understandable that no other social bond it may matter more to a mother than the one who establishes from one moment to the next with her child, the product of her own body. This unique situation in the life of a living being can undoubtedly have changing effects but it is always an event of profound change, emotion and new sensations for any living being that experiences it.
