Benefits of Breastfeeding

Ms. Rebecca Naylor, Australian Breastfeeding Association's (ABA) Chief Executive Officer says that the most important factor in improving breastfeeding rates is to provide support to breastfeeding mothers as well as helping them to feel comfortable and be accepted in the society. Ms. Naylor emphasised that World Breastfeeding Week is a great opportunity to raise awareness, offer support and demonstrate how breastfeeding contributes to the sustainability of the world we live in.
