Breastfeeding

For Mother, breastfeeding:

• Is convenient; there's nothing to buy, carry, heat or measure
• Gives you time & helps you relax
• Speeds up post-partum healing
• Saves up to $2000/year in feeding costs

For Baby, breastfeeding:

• Provides all the nutrients needed and in the right amounts
• Causes less spit up & stomach aches because it's so easy to digest
• Lowers risks of allergies, earaches, weight problems, SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome), and other childhood illnesses
