WORLD BREASTFEEDING WEEK

Breast milk is tailored for your baby and changes throughout the day, with the seasons, as they grow, and to help them fight off illnesses.
Breastfeeding provides:
✔️Signals that it’s time to sleep
✔️Extra hydration when it’s hot
✔️ Specific antibodies when mum or baby is sick
✔️Adapted fat content and nutrients as they grow

WORLD BREASTFEEDING WEEK

This World Breastfeeding Week, we shine a light on the power of exclusive breastfeeding,which involves giving your baby only breast milk for the first six months of life, without any other food or drink, not even water.

Why exclusive breastfeeding matters:
✔️ Boosts your baby’s immunity and protects against common illnesses
✔️Enhances brain development and supports healthy growth
✔️ Reduces the risk of chronic conditions later in life
✔️Strengthens the bond between mother and baby
At Embu Level 5 Hospital, we are committed to supporting mothers with the right information, care, and a breastfeeding friendly environment because every child deserves the best start in life.
