Despite the fact that breastfeeding is the best and science continues to prove the many benefits of breastfeeding a baby, many people still criticize or point to nursing mothers, making unpleasant comments.
The literature on breastfeeding, pediatricians, midwives, and qualified lactation consultants repeat ad nauseam that, with few exceptions diagnosed by specialists, all women can breastfeed their children and can produce enough milk.
Although we know that breast milk is the best food for the baby during its first months of life, some women cannot breastfeed or simply choose not to, and it is a decision that must be respected, since only she knows the circumstances by which it is made that decision.
The WHO (World Health Organization) recommends exclusive breastfeeding up to six months and supplementing it with other foods until at least two years of the child.
Breastfeeding brings many benefits to mother and baby. We know that the ideal is to keep it up to six months exclusively and, from there, accompanied by other foods until the mother and baby want it.
Feeding the baby with milk from his mother is an undeniable right, whether the baby is breastfed from his own breast as if they are separated, and it is expressed to be given later.
Although it may seem like it's not a big deal, two to three weeks apart at birth could make a difference. It is known, for example, that babies who are premature are more likely to have certain complications both in the short and long term.
Breast milk is the ideal food for the newborn and for the baby up to six months of life exclusively, that is, it does not need other foods. It is well tolerated by the vast majority of babies; otherwise, we would not have gotten here as a species! But are there any exceptions to this? Can some babies not tolerate their mother's milk or have an allergy to it?
