Imagine..

“Imagine that the world had created a new dream product to feed and immunize everyone born on Earth. Imagine also that it was available everywhere, required no storage or delivery and helped mothers to plan their families and reduce the risk of cancer. Then, imagine the world refused to use it.”
- UNICEF
This scenario sounds extraordinary; imagine having healthier mothers and babies, products available to everyone regardless of their economic status, ability to reduce your risk of certain diseases and cancers. WE DO, its breast milk. Breast milk is a superfood, available to every person at birth and yet we are still not utilizing it to its full potential. 

Reasearch has shown that early initiation of breastfeeding (starting to breastfeed soon after birth) can prevent 22% of all deaths among babies below one month in developing countries.

SO LETS BREASTFEED! Please visit our new FACEBOOK PAGE! - We are hoping that this page will build awareness in our community for breastfeeding mother. Please feel free to share your breastfeeding success stories, thoughts or concerns related to breastfeeding with us! All babies are born to breastfeed and we are hoping that we can lend a helping hand to the mothers behind the blankets.
