Breastfeeding within one hour of birth can reduce infant mortality
Breastfeeding within one hour of birth can reduce infant mortality
A study from Ghana published in the journal Pediatrics indicates that 16 per cent of neonatal deaths can be prevented by breastfeeding infants from day one, rising to 22 per cent if breastfeeding begins within one hour of birth. Early initiation of breastfeeding is the theme of this year’s World Breastfeeding Week

There will be a next! I want one as soon as Oli weans, but it would be better if we waited till we got our house.

Jake latched on within a few mins of being born. I was so shocked at his birth I barely had time to realised that he was also bfing! When I realised he was sucking away I was so happy, I moment I will never forget x x
