We all know that Breastfeeding is still best for babies, despite of those milk formula can offer. Here are the advantages that a breast milk can give to your babies.

. Breast milk is the ideal food for babies.  It is more digestible, provides protection from some diseases, and contains nutrients not found in formula.

.  Breastfed babies have fewer problems with constipation, diarrhea, ear infections, colds, allergies and other health problems.

.  The content of breast milk adapts to the baby’s needs from morning to evening and from month to month.

.  Babies are rarely allergic to breast milk.

Breastfeeding helps the uterus contract through nipple stimulation and release of hormones.  Milk production also burns off the mother’s    calories, aiding in weight loss.

.  Breastfeeding is easy, economical and safe because it is always ready.  No preparation and no special equipment are necessary.

.  Breastfeeding appears to control potential obesity in babies and may be linked to lower rates of breast cancer in mothers and childhood cancers in children.

.  Breastfeeding gives babies a feeling of security and intimacy.

Even I’m a working mom, I think I made the right decision to give what is best for my baby,breastmilk.
