World Breastfeeding Week 2020

World Breastfeeding Week 2020 – August 1-7

Did You know❗❗❗

Initiation of breastfeeding within the first hour of life is very important

Exclusive breastfeeding – that is, the infant only receives breast milk without any additional food or drink, not even water for the first six month of life is highly recommended followed by continued breastfeeding with appropriate complementary foods for up to two years or beyond.

Breastfeed on demand – that is, as often as the child wants be it day or night.

All this recommendations comes with a lot of benefits for both the mother and the infant*

Thank you🙏🏽
