Breastmilk gives baby everything she needs to thrive for the first six months of her life.
 

Breastfeeding offers lots of benefits. Here are just a few:

• It may reduce baby's risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
• It helps baby to fight infection and develop good bacteria in her digestive system. She gets all the nutrition she needs from milk to grow well, while also being protected from harmful bacteria.
• Breastmilk contains antibodies from you that help to protect your baby against tummy bugs (gastroenteritis), colds, chest infections and ear infections.
• It helps to feel close to one another and may help to prevent postnatal depression (PND).
• It prepares baby for different tastes. Unlike formula milk, the flavour of breastmilk can change according to what you've eaten, so your baby may be less of a fussy eater when she's weaning.
• It can be a great comfort to older baby when she's too ill to eat, but still able to feed. Breastmilk can also help your baby to recover from illness more quickly. Once your babystarts solids at around six months, you can carry on breastfeeding her.
