Breastfeeding

Why you should breastfeed your child?

1. Breast milk is always ready and comes in a nicer package than formula does.
Need we say more?
2. Nursing helps mom lose weight after baby is born
Breastfeeding requires an average of 500 extra calories per day and breastfeeding mothers who eat a normal diet lose the extra weight they gained during pregnancy faster than moms who choose to bottle feed.
3. Breast milk is free
Any way you look at it, you'll spend a lot more money if you choose to formula feed.
4. Breast milk acts like a natural tranquilizer for baby
Mother's milk contains chemicals that seem to work like "knock-out drops" for tired babies.
5. Breast milk tastes better than formula
Human breast milk is sweet and light. Formula is pasty and bland. Which would you rather eat?
6.Fewer waste packaging products
No wrappers, canisters, disposable bottles etc...
7.Cow's milk is designed for baby cows, while human milk is designed for human babies.
agree?
8. Breastfed babies smell fantastic
No scientific study needed here. There is something almost magical about the scent of your own breastfed baby, whether you're the mother or father involved.Try,you'll like it!
9. Much nicer diaper changes
The bowel movements of breastfed babies smell mild and inoffensive.
10. It's what breasts were designed for!
well, except for.....
