Benefits of Breastfeeding to me
Mummy wants to breastfeed me because it is a rewarding experience that allows for a closer bond between me and her. Do you know that breast milk is complete in nutrition and no further supplement is required to meet all my nutritional needs? I can digest and absorb all nutrients better and grow up to be a healthier child. Studies has shown that long chain of polyunsaturated fatty acids present in breast milk aid in brain development of babies. Mummy's milk also contains antibodies, which offer protection against gastro-intestinal disturbances, respiratory problems and ear infections. It also helps in my cognitive development like reading and writing. It is clean, safe, convenient and cost saving.
Benefits of Breastfeeding to mummy
As for mummy, breastfeeding helps to secrete oxytocin hormones that helps mummy's womb to contract and return to normal size faster. It also helps mummy to lose weight as her metabolic rate increases when she is nursing me.
Benefits of Breastfeeding to daddy
As for daddy, as it is free, daddy does not need to pay a lot of money to buy formula milk.
Mummy does not really produce milk during the first few days. The composition of human milk changes during the course of feeding and through lactation. The first milk is called the colostrum. It is secreted in the first few days following my birth. The colostrum protects me from infection and also helps to stimulate the passage of meconium, my first stools. (the black colour poo poo)
