I think this is good food for thought for the parents,expecting Mommies & future Mommies & Daddies here @ MyLot-I thought y'all may find this interesting:
Most parents are aware that breast milk is best for their baby, but may not be aware that the benefits of breastfeeding extend far beyond basic nutrition.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months.
Another advantage of breastfeeding is that it's as healthy for mothers as it is for babies. Not only does lactation continue the natural physiologic process begun with conception and pregnancy, but it provides many short and long-term health benefits to the mother.Mother's who breastfeed lose weight by burning an extra 300 to 500 calories a day.
