Nursing & Feeding
Breastfeeding, often known as nursing, is the process of giving a child breast milk. Breast milk can come directly from the mother's breast, be extracted by hand, or be pumped and fed to the baby. Breastfeeding should begin within the first hour of a newborn's life and continue as often and as much as the baby desires, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Breastfeeding should be done exclusively for six months, according to health groups such as the WHO. This means that, except from vitamin D, no other foods or beverages are usually supplied. Breastfeeding should be sustained until one to two years of age or longer after the introduction of solids at six months of age.
Nursing has a number of benefits to both mother and baby, which infant formula lacks. Nursing decreases the risk of respiratory tract infections, ear infections, sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), and diarrhea for the baby. Other benefits have been proposed to include lower risks of asthma, food allergies, and diabetes. Nursing may also improve cognitive development and decrease the risk of obesity in adulthood. Benefits for the mother include less blood loss following delivery, better contraction of the uterus, and decreased postpartum depression. Nursing delays the return of menstruation, and in very specific circumstances, fertility. Long-term benefits for the mother include decreased risk of breast cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and rheumatoid arthritis. It is also less expensive than infant formula.
