Healthcare professionals agree: breastfeeding is the best thing you can do for your baby in the first few months. From the biological point of view, we know that virtually any woman can breastfeed if they wish to, if they are well informed about breastfeeding and if they are given the support of a healthcare professional.

Whether or not you opt to breastfeed your baby is predominantly a decision made on instinct. It has been shown that if you are well-prepared for breastfeeding and if you are aware of what actually happens while you are breastfeeding, then you will be in the best possible position to help your baby suck and feed properly.

If you have questions, don’t hesitate to ask a nurse, doctor, midwife or lactation consultant
