My Resolution !!! will do!

This time....planning to breastfeed lil khalif until he is 2. Insyaallah .....but to some people, breastfeeding is not a good idea especially towards the end of your confinement period. Some babysitters, they prefer to give baby formula milk as it is easier and more comfortable for them to prepare. Nevertheless, this time....I have my maid at home to feed my baby so she cant say no to my breastmilk..heeeeeeee:D

Why breastmlik?

Many does not get ample information on breastmilk. I bet many have heard ..breast mlik is the best food for our child as it has essential nutrients that he needs.

But how nutritious it is?

ok..do you know that...

1) BM is a more easily digestible form of iron as compared to cow's milk, which allows up to 7-% of the iron to be absorbed compared to only 30% for cow's milk.

2) BM contains a higher content of lactose compared to formula milk.Lactose is an important source of energy and also for the development of the central nervous system.

3) BM contains more whey protein than casein compared to cow's milk, because whey protein is more easily digested than casein.

4) BM promotes the growth of good bacteria and inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria in child's intestine. Besides, breast milk is rich in antibodies which help the body to fight off infections, allergies and other illness.

According to paed:

Children who are breasfed are :

1)Less likely to suffer gastro -enterities symptoms like diarrhoea and vomitting during the first 3 months.(Agreed when I witnessed Widaad)

2) Less likely to suffer urine infections (Agreed)

3) Less likely to have asthma or wheezing disorders (Definitely)

4)Less likely to have insulin problems, high blood preassure or high cholestrol later in life.
