Feeding infants and newly born kids directly with breast milk from a woman?s breasts is called breastfeeding. Intake of milk is considered healthy for the infants and new born babies, particularly when it is human breast milk. Breastfeeding is mostly recommended for a period of six months at least and can even be extended, provided there is no addition of artificial formula or solid food.
A mother who is infected with tuberculosis or HIV or is under the course of certain drugs loses on the ability to breastfeed her child. Infant deaths in both developing and developed countries can be attributed to many factors, the mast important being artificial feeding. Breastfeeding, apart from making the infants immune to common infections, also ensure that they remain in their healthy best. My next post will be about, breastfeeding clothes.
