Breast milk is better for babies in so many ways.
- It has all the
nutrition your
baby needs to
grow.
- It's easier on
tiny tummies.
If you
breast feed,
your baby is
less likely to
have
diarrhea* or
to be
constipated*.
- It's less likely to make your baby too fat. That's because you
can't overfeed it.
- Babies are almost never allergic to breast milk and breast fed
babies are less likely to have allergies.
- It can keep your baby healthy; breast fed babies get sick much
less often.
AND
- It creates a special time for you and your baby.
- It costs nothing.
- It never goes bad.
- It is always ready at a moment's notice.
- No bottles to wash, heat up, refrigerate and lug around.
*diarrhea: runny poop
*constipated: baby has to push hard to poop
