Breastfeeding is a miracle of nature and the ability for you to give your baby breast milk gives you thousands of benefits, not only for baby but for you as well as a mother. For example, breastfeeding you can serve as a natural contraceptive, will help you recover the lost figure after giving birth and is ideal for preventing breast cancer, among other benefits.

Quite apart from this, it’s your baby who will benefit 100% the mother’s milk, because it provides all the necessary nutrients just like that are not found in infant formula you buy at the supermarket. Among the great benefits of breast milk for the baby is:

The bond
The bond that develops between mother and child is only when you give breastfeeding. The child feels very secure and the mother feels about her baby, remember that it is almost a “trauma” to give birth, so much so that many women fall into postpartum depression, and so the breastfeeding your baby helps the mother to recover quickly from this “loss” that he felt in his belly.

Help your baby’s health
It is said that breast milk helps the baby does not suffer from asthma, and this is not said in vain. Breast milk contains thousands of vitamins that protect the child from chronic conditions, including diabetes or leukemia. For example, asthma is prevented because the child uses the capacity of your lungs, making them increasingly strong through suction.

Breastfed babies do not get as sick as formula-fed babies, and this is also a great relief to parents, because they have to spend so much on medicine and doctors.

It serves as a laxative
Babies at birth have within her body a substance called meconium that was accumulating in the stomach while developing in the womb. This substance will be gradually phased out, but mother’s milk will help make this process faster. If you are breastfeeding, pays more attention to your baby’s diaper, because you have to change it more often.

You see, breast milk helps in many ways to those directly related to the newborn, including it.
