Breastfeeding provides numerous health, emotional, and practical benefits for both mother and baby. It promotes bonding between mother and child, aids in postpartum weight loss for the mother, and reduces health risks for both. Breastfed babies are less likely to get sick and have fewer ear infections, allergies, and dental cavities. Breastfeeding is more convenient than formula feeding as it is always available at the right temperature and requires no preparation. It allows for more flexibility in parenting and is environmentally friendly without waste or pollution.
