AKPAN ANIEFIOK'S ideas and support needed as an ENGINEERING STUDENT

It is no more News that Nigeria is ranked as the sixth most populated nation in the world and the most populated in Africa, which is also ranked as the 21st largest economy in the world with respect to her gross domestic product(GDP) and the 20th largest in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP), with such a buoyant economy in Africa, she is still ranked as one of the countries with the most unemployed citizens and highest rate of poverty. Poverty, which currently is one of the most prevalent social problem of every nation is on the rise in every African cities and more intensely at the western region.

A nation is said to be poor if more than average of her citizens do not have a certain minimum living standard. Nigeria is not an exception to this common definition. After much research,  I came up with a professional idea which can largely help to minimize the effect of high rate of poverty in developing countries such as, Nigeria with support from government, stakeholders, and individuals as an Engineering student.

Does Drinking Lots of Water Increase Mothers' Breast Milk Supply?

It certainly is important for breastfeeding mamas to make sure they are taking care of themselves, and that includes making sure they are drinking to their thirst. The problem is that because moms in general tend to be busy people sometimes, well, they forget about being thirsty and start to become dehyrdrated. Obviously, that's something to avoid.

Breastfeeding moms (and everyone else) should simply make sure that they are taking in fluids appropriately by drinking regularly. Some early signs of dehydration include a dry mouth, dark urine, constipation, dizziness, headaches, and muscle weakness. To avoid dehydration, I encourage moms to keep a water bottle around, stow it in a diaper bag pocket when you are out and about, and do your best to be aware of your thirst level.
