Describe the nutritional and immunological benefits of breastfeeding. How will you manage infant-mother nursing pair in immediate post partum period?

Breastfed babies have:

• Stronger immune systems
• Less diarrhea, constipation, gastroenteritis, gastroesophageal reflux, and preterm necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC)
• Fewer colds and respiratory illnesses like pneumonia, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and whooping cough
• Fewer ear infections, especially those that damage hearing
• Fewer case of bacterial meningitis
• Better vision and less retinopathy of prematurity
• Lower rates of infant mortality
• Lower rates of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)
• Less illness overall and less hospitalization

Parents have up to six times less absenteeism from work

Breast milk provides abundant and easily absorbed nutritional components, antioxidants, enzymes, immune properties, and live antibodies from mother. Mother’s more mature immune system makes antibodies to the germs to which she and her baby have been exposed. These antibodies enter her milk to help protect her baby from illness. Immunoglobulin A coats the lining of the baby’s immature intestines helping germs and allergens from leaking through. Breast milk also contains substances that naturally soothe infants.

Breastfed babies may become healthier children with:

• Fewer instances of allergies, eczema, and asthma
• Fewer childhood cancers, including leukemia and lymphomas
• Lower risk of type I and II diabetes
• Fewer instances of Crohn’s disease and colitis
• Lower rates of respiratory illness
• Fewer speech and orthodontic problems
• Fewer cavities
• Less likelihood of becoming obese later in childhood
• Improved brain maturation
• Greater immunity to infection
• Teens and adults will find benefits for life:
• Less likely to develop rheumatoid arthritis and lupus
• Less likely to develop heart disease in adulthood
• Lower risk of multiple sclerosis
• Lower rates of pre- and postmenopausal breast cancers
• Breastfeeding is healthier for mom physically:
• Promotes faster weight loss after birth, burning about 500 extra calories a day to build and maintain a milk supply.
• Stimulates the uterus to contract and return to normal size.
• Less postpartum bleeding
• Fewer urinary tract infections
• Less chance of anemia
• Less risk of postpartum _________ ____ ________ ___ _________ ________ ______ ___ _______ _____ __________.
