Is there really a difference between breastmilk and infant formula?
The differences between breastmilk and formula are too vast and too many to mention in detail. Formula, also known as Artificial Infant Milk, is a product for babies who cannot receive their own mother’s milk or banked human milk. Human milk is a living substance, it supplies antibodies as well as all the necessary nutrition in the appropriate quantities for a baby’s optimal development. Does breastfeeding hurt? Breastfeeding, when done correctly does not hurt. If you are experiencing pain while breastfeeding, something is WRONG and you should get help. Are there foods I shouldn’t eat? Generally speaking, you can eat anything you want to, IN MODERATION. Most mothers are able to eat anything they want with no problems. Try eating different foods, one at a time, to see how your baby reacts to them. If something really makes him fussy and uncomfortable, don’t eat it for a couple of weeks. As his digestive system matures, he can handle much more. Am I eligible for WIC? WIC serves pregnant
