Benefits of Breastfeeding
-
As your baby grows, your breast milk changes to match her/his nutritional needs.
-
Your baby will be getting naturally occurring immune protection against illnesses, allergies and infections (ear, chest and stomach).
-
Breast milk is convenient, fresh and at the right temperature-plus it's environmentally friendly.
-
You'll benefit from faster recovery after pregnancy and delivery, and possibly a lower risk of breast cancer and diabetes later in life.
-
Breastfeeding is the ideal bonding time for you and your baby.
