God is So Cool

So I was reading in a magazine the other day. Go figure eh...me reading! :)

Anyways, the mag was called "mothering: natural family living" It was an article on caring for premature babies.

"Remarkably, a recent study led by Dr. Ludington-Hoe showed that when mothers of twins Kangerooed their babies simultaneously, the temperature of each breast adapted to regulate the temperature of the baby closest to it. This phenomenon, called breast biosynchrony, means that one breast might become warmer to help a baby whose body temperature needs to be higher, while the other breast might remain at the same temperature, or even grow cooler, if the infant on that breast is already warm enough."

(p. 44, Caring for your premature baby by Christine Gross-Loh)

When I read this I thought...wow....God is so cool. Like who would have thought about making a momma's body in such a way that a wee little baby could be cared for by his momma like that? And to be able to care for two different babies at the same time with such a intimate level of care...giving each just what it needs. I was just SO amazed by that.

It just shows how God cares for even the tiniest among us. :)
