Children's Health - Breast Feeding
Dear Parents,
Allow me to offer you some advice regarding breast feeding, weaning, Positioning and in general handling your baby.
I hope that you find it useful.

The breast is the best!!!!Breast milk is the best source of food for your newborn because:
1. It is clean.
2. It is warm.
3. Of optimum composition.
4. It is available at any time and place.
5. It fulfills the baby's psychological needs for suckling & tightens the mother-child bonds.
6. It contains antibodies that protect the baby against disease.
Try to enjoy breast feeding, don't think of it as a duty but rather as an opportunity to relax and get to know your baby.
Don't complicate it by being too modest, there are many ways of breast feeding in public without exposing yourself. This will make life easier and happier.
