BELOW: Alaina Nancy joined the Schaffer family in
September at home. Mom, Rachael (midwife) and
family all attended her water birth. The
Schaffers enjoy their fresh raw milk every day from
the family’s pet goats. They also enjoy their cod liver
oil and fresh eggs. Mom makes lots of soups, boiling
the bones for marrow broth, which the family loves.
They also plant a large garden and freeze, can and
ferment food for the winter. All kids enjoyed Mom’s
breast milk the first year of life.
Keenan Matthew Lindsay, the happy healthy baby of
Jason Lindsay and Julianne Boyajian, weighed 20 pounds
at six months! Due to Mom’s low milk supply, Keenan
has been on the raw milk baby formula since he was four
and a half weeks old. Mom followed the Weston A. Price
pregnancy diet consuming liberal amounts of butter, eggs,
animal protein and fat, and other nutrient-dense foods.
When Keenan was born all the medical staff were
absolutely amazed at how alert and strong he was!
