New mothers want to give their babies the very best.  Here are 10 of the numerous reasons you and your baby will benefit from breastfeeding.

10 Benefits of Breastfeeding:
  1. Human milk is the perfect food for your baby. It has all the right ingredients in just the right amounts for your baby.  For example less iron than formula because the type of iron found in breast milk is easier to digest and for your baby's body to use.  
  2. Mother’s milk is easy to digest. Babies don’t get constipated (probably from the overabundant amount of iron found in formula) and seldom get diarrhea which is common in infants using a cows milk based formula.
  3. Breastfeeding helps prevent obesity and diabetes in children.
  4. Breastfed babies have fewer allergies than formula-fed babies. This is very important if your family has a history of allergies.
  5. Breast milk has special antibodies that help protect your baby from colds, flu, ear infections, and illnesses like asthma, eczema and hay fever.  Some studies even link ADHD to the lack of infant nutrition found in formula.
  6. Have milk, will travel.  In other words, breastfed babies are easy to take along. You can take them with you wherever you go. No need to pack up bottles, sterilizing equipment and formula.  Have milk, will travel.
  7. Working mothers who are breastfeeding miss fewer days of work because their babies don’t get sick as often.  A great fact to know when you are taking a break to pump breast milk for your baby!
  8. Breastfeeding will help your uterus return to normal faster. It also helps prevent heavy bleeding following birth.  And burns an extra 500 calories per day!
  9. Breastfeeding saves our natural resources. Making formula takes valuable land, water, and energy and also pollutes the air.
  10. Breastfeeding makes you feel good about yourself because you know you are giving your baby the best. You are also giving of yourself, which is the greatest gift of all.  Leaving your breast milk with your baby is the perfect way for a working mother to stay connected with her precious baby.

There are many more benefits, but for whatever reason you choose to breastfeed your child, Lactation Connection provides all the essentials for success in nursing your baby. We offer professional quality breast pumps, a wide variety of sizes in nursing bras and fenugreek and other herbs to enhance milk production.  Plus so much more for you and your baby!  No wonder our slogan is "Empowering the Nation to Latch On!"  Visit our online Lactation Connection store and let us help you make your breastfeeding experience a positive one.

Sincerely,

Tanya Roberts
