'You CAN continue doing the things you love. You CAN do them while breastfeeding.'
Taking care of babies is really a tough task especially for new mothers. But a Canadian mother shows us you can keep doing things you used to enjoy even though your baby still needs to be breastfed.

Serah Small, a hockey player and teacher shared an amazing photo of her breastfeeding her two months old baby between periods of her hockey game.
Serah said: 'I felt my milk come in and leak as I played and between periods I would strip down to feed my 8 week old babe. Being a mom is absolutely amazing and I'm so happy I got to do something I absolutely love while still meeting my babies needs. Our bodies are amazing and this weekend was the first time I truly appreciated mine.'

The gorgeous mother encourages others: 'You CAN continue doing the things you love. You CAN do them while breastfeeding. You don't have to pick one or the other. Babies can breastfeed anytime, anywhere. So do the things you love to do, and keep your baby close. You'll both be happier in the end.'
MILL HALL, Pa. (AP) — An Amish woman and her six children ranging in age from 3 to 11 were killed in a swift-moving house fire after an explosion that shook nearby houses in rural northcentral Pennsylvania, authorities said.
Firefighters responding to a report of an explosion and fire at a home in Lamar Township in Clinton County near Mill Hall on Sunday morning said seven people were trapped, but they couldn't search the house engulfed in flames, Pennsylvania State Police said in a statement.
All seven died. Police identified them as Sarah Stoltzfus, 34, four sons, ages 11, 10, 5 and 3, and two daughters, ages 8 and 6.
An obituary posted online by a local funeral home identified Stoltzfus as a member of the Old Order Amish Church community. She is survived by her husband, David Stoltzfus, it said.
A police report issued earlier gave the spelling of her last name as Stolzfus.
The cause is under investigation. A propane leak inside the home may have caused the explosion and fire, police said, noting that exterior propane tanks did not explode and were not contributing factors for the explosion and fire.
Neighbor Christina Duck told WNEP-TV she was eating breakfast when it began.
“And I heard a boom and I could feel it and I got up and looked out the window and I could see the flames through the windows and I come running outside and within a minute the whole house was completely engulfed,” Duck said. The family moved in a couple of months ago, Duck said, noting that she often saw the children outside playing.
By the time firefighters got there, "there was no saving that house, it went up so fast,” she said.
WNEP-TV showed video of what it said was members of the Amish community arriving at the scene to clean up and pay respects.
The Amish prioritize their deep Christian faith and family life, eschewing many modern conveniences. They wear traditional clothing and use horses and buggies for much of their transportation. They often speak a German dialect known as Pennsylvania Dutch.
