Child Development & Public Health Blog

Breastfeeding is an initiative that has become semi-popular in the U.S. Although we are known to have one of the lowest rates in the industrialized world,  along with China.  Now within the last few years U.S. has improved its rankings.  Due to education on the form of nutrition and for mother's I've asked economy wise has been as reason it has improved as well.

The benefits                        The downside
*  healthy for infant.                * all are not able to do so
* cost effective.                       * not able to be created
* immunity                               * mother's diet is strict
* growth & development  

When I do have children I would like to breastfeed my children.  Hopefully I will be able to do so. Because of the complications with baby formula that have arisen and its production process causing companies to recall several quantities. In China it was a big fiasco with residents purchasing formula to the efforts it was looked at as smuggling.  Because large quantities were recalled from a manufacturer located in New Zealand that supplies most of China's formula.
