While the decision to breastfeed is a personal one, many people agree breast feeding offers many benefits to you and your baby. It is also a great way to bond with your newborn.

Breast milk contains the right balance of vitamins and nutrients to help your infant grow strong and healthy. breast milk has also been linked to providing increased protection against some common childhood illnesses and infections. Breastfeeding may also offer some benefits to mother such as reduced risk of certain types of cancer.

It is recommended that women without health problems should try to breastfeed their babies for at least the first six months of life. There are some cases when it's better not to breast feed and we certainly recommend you consult you’re your physician to determine if breastfeeding is right for you.
