The question of whether to breastfeed or formula feed a newborn baby has probably caused a lot of discussion in society. Some people think that breastfeeding will be affected because the mother has to go to work after giving birth and that it is better to formula feed directly. Some people think that breastfeeding is better than formula, safe and healthy and nutritious, and that breastfeeding should be promoted. There are different opinions, but it is true that breastfeeding is more suitable for the healthy growth of babies than formula.
The body will absorb sufficient nutrients from the breast milk to promote the growth of the baby and enhance resistance, immunity, anti-allergy, anti-virus and other abilities, reducing the occurrence of diseases in infancy and early childhood. Some formula may deteriorate, or the quality is not satisfactory, for the baby's long and fragile intestines, feeding formula is not so good, it will be easy to make the baby's gastrointestinal burden due to poor grasp, resulting in constipation, diarrhea, etc.
Compared to formula feeding, breastfeeding is better because breast milk has the nutrients that babies need, especially colostrum, which has a large amount of immunoglobulins, improving the baby's immunity and reducing the probability of infection, and the ratio of nutrients is suitable for the baby's developmental needs and easy to digest and absorb, which is also more comprehensive nutrition and conducive to the baby's growth and development. Breastfeeding is economical and convenient, the temperature is suitable, so it will be conducive to infant physiological health, breastfeeding as much as possible, will also be conducive to the baby's brain development and growth and development. This is also an important factor that formula cannot replace.
If you don't have enough milk and insist on exclusive breastfeeding, you can eat more nutritious foods to supplement your milk. The first thing you can do is to make a reserve of milk and warm it up for your baby at any time.
