| Title: Our breastfeeding journey from birth to 12 months |
| Description: Our breastfeeding Journey.
Breastfeeding is the ideal way of providing young infants with the nutrients they need for healthy growth and development. Virtually all mothers can breastfeed, provided they have accurate information, and the support of their family and the health care system. Colostrum, the yellowish, sticky breast milk produced at the end of pregnancy, is recommended by WHO as the perfect food for the newborn, and feeding should be initiated within the first hour after birth. Exclusive breastfeeding is recommended up to 6 months of age. The timely initiation of nutritionally adequate and safe complementary foods while continuing breastfeeding up to 2 years or beyond is recommended.
