Do not Deprive Your Baby of Breastfeeding

Spread the love

Breastfeeding is considered one of the best ways to meet your child’s nutritive and emotional needs. Doctors advise to breastfeed children right after their birth for a period of at least six months, because of the several benefits it can give to the mother and the child.

Its most important benefits are the following:

Child:

  • Protects children from infections and diseases from which they can suffer in their first year of age, such as diarrhea, colds and ear infections.
  • Breast milk contains all the nutrients needed by the child.
  • Breastfed children have a lower risk of having diabetes.
  • The sucking process helps the child to strengthen his/her gums and to develop his/her teeth in a healthy way.
  • The child feels a sense of security and trust because of his/her proximity of his/her mother.

Mother:

  • Helps the mother to lose the extra weight gained during her pregnancy.
  • Reduces the risk of breast and ovarian cancer.
  • Helps the uterus to return to its normal position.
