Breastfeeding
A woman who has given birth is advised to practice exclusive breastfeeding unless there is a medical reason for her or the baby that prevents it. Breastfeeding has multiple health benefits, including:
Strengthening the bond and relationship between the mother and the child.
Reducing the risk of postpartum bleeding and helping the uterus contract properly.
Providing the baby with essential nutrients and antibodies that protect against infections until the immune system matures.
Helping the breastfeeding mother space pregnancies.
Reducing the risk of breast cancer in breastfeeding mothers.
