We believe that you may be visiting this page for advice on the right way to feed your baby, not to be told that there is no right way to do it. However, there really is no one right way to do it. The best advice we can give you here on the Web -- is how we recommend that parents feed their babies, along with the very few hard-and-fast rules I give to parents.
Breastfeeding allows you to provide your baby with all it needs for growth and development. Breast milk not only contains all the nutrients your baby needs, in an easily digested form, but it also contains antibodies to protect your baby from all kinds of infection.
There are substances in breast milk, which cannot be reproduced. You alone can provide these living factors for your baby. Breastfeeding is a really positive thing to do. It is not only good for your baby, it is good for you too. |
