Medical Support
As Jackie’s post went viral, a lot of people from the medical field also came forward in support. Many doctors and gynecologists started by making people – especially mothers – aware of the benefits of breastfeeding for both the baby and the mother. It began an entirely new discussion.
The Importance
There’s an important reason doctors stress on breastfeeding a child. While it’s more of a personal choice, the mother’s milk is ideal for the baby. It’s rich in nutrients and all the necessary vitamins for the baby. On top of that, it’s a source of colostrum which helps the baby fight off infections.
