About breastfeeding
Breastfeeding is one of the most important things a mother can do to improve the lifelong health and wellbeing of her child. Your milk is perfect and uniquely made for your baby’s needs for food and drink and also helps protect from infection and illness. It also helps you to feel closer to your baby and helps your health as well. Every day counts.
