Just a little reminder that your breastmilk is perfect for your baby đŸ©·

[ID: Did you know? Breastmilk is the perfect meal for your baby. It contains more than 200 types of fatty acids, over 400 types of protein and is more than 85% water. This means they do not need anything else for at least the first 6 months. Image of a mum breastfeeding her baby.]

Breastmilk is uniquely designed for your baby’s body and is digested more quickly than formula because it’s perfectly matched to a human infant’s developing gut. It contains enzymes like lipase and amylase that actively help break it down, making it easier to absorb and gentler on the stomach. Faster digestion means babies get hungry sooner and need to nurse more often, not because your milk isn’t enough, but because it’s doing exactly what it’s meant to do. Frequent feeds are a sign of normal biology, not a problem to fix. đŸ€±

How amazing is this???

Your milk transforms into personalised medicine for your baby.

When your baby is sick and they feed at the breast, their saliva flows backwards into your breast, and your body starts making antibodies to help them get better.

In addition to considering the risks of using infant formula, we also need to consider the risk of not breastfeeding. Please share!!

Breastfeeding Isn’t Just Feeding. It’s Communication.

Babies don’t have words.
They communicate through cues, cries, and closeness.

The breast becomes a language.
“I’m tired.”
“I need reassurance.”
“I need you.”

Responding doesn’t spoil them.
It teaches them they are heard.

No one tells you the exact moment your baby will nurse for the very last time. It won’t come with a warning or a countdown. It’ll just
 happen. And one day you’ll realize it was the last, and you’ll wish you could go back and hold on a little longer. Tonight, even in the exhaustion, soak it in, mama these are the moments we’ll never get back. đŸ’•đŸ€±
