Breastfeeding –
What does
that mean for
the mother?
A newborn baby has only three
demands. They are warmth in the arms
of its mother, food from her breasts,
and security in the knowledge of her
presence. Breastfeeding satisfies all
three. ~Grantly Dick-Read

Infant Benefits
 Protects against infection
 Lowers incidence of diarrhea
 Reduces the risk of SIDS
 Reduces the risk of developing
leukemia
and other childhood cancers
 Lowers the risk of juvenile onset
diabetes

 Fewer and less severe respiratory
infections

hospital stay
 Reduces hospital costs
 Hastens brainstem maturation
 Reduces the risk of life-
threatening diseases and other
infectious diseases.

What makes Breastmilk
unique?
 Perfect amounts of fatty acids, lactose, water
and amino acids for human digestion, brain
development and growth.
 Cow’s milk contains a different type of protein.
Human infants have difficulty digesting it.
 Human milk can transfer antibodies from
mother to fight diseases. About 80% of cells in
breastmilk are cells that kill bacteria, fungi and
viruses.
 Human milk contains at least 100 ingredients
not found in artificial breast milk.
 Changes to meet the growing needs of the
child.
 Like blood, mother’s milk is a complex living
substance able to protect against a variety of
infections. One drop contains approximately 13
Why is breastfeeding best?
One study compared breastfed and
artificially fed babies for the first six
months and the number of visits to
the doctor due to illness (excluding
well baby check-ups)
– 25% made a visit to the doctor due to
illness making between 1 to 5 visits
each
– 97% made a visit to the doctor
making up to 16 visits each. Photograph credited to the Texas Department of
State Health Services.

Benefits for Father
 Smell – spit up and bowel movements
 Financial
◦ Health care costs
◦ AIM costs
◦ Dental work
 Mother is happier
 Baby is happier
15
Societal Benefits
 Improved vaccine effectiveness
 Financial savings to government and
families
◦ Food expense
◦ Medical expenses
◦ More ecological
◦ Less child abuse
16
Cost Savings
 A look at health services for lower
respiratory tract illnesses, otitis media,
and gastrointestinal illness in the first
year of life in relation to the duration of
exclusive breastfeeding.
◦ 1000 AIM fed infants had 2033 more office
visits
◦ 212 more days in the hospital
◦ 609 more prescriptions for illnesses than the
1000 infants exclusively breastfed for 3
months.
 The additional health care services
cost between $331 and $475 for each
never-breastfed infant over the first
year of life.

17
Economic Facts
 $2 billion per year is spent by families on breast
milk substitutes.
 $1.3 billion is spent by insurers, including
Medicaid, to cover doctor visits and prescriptions
to treat the three most common illnesses –
respiratory infections, ear infections and diarrhea
in the first year of life for artificially fed infants.
 $3.6 to 7 billion are spent every year on
conditions and diseases that are preventable by
breastfeeding.

18
The Statistics are Staggering
 1.5 million infants die each year because
they are not breastfed.
 In areas where water is not safe, bottle
feeding children are 25 times more likely
than breastfed children to die from diarrhea.
 Even in developed countries, breastfeeding
saves babies’ lives and reduces life-long
illness.
 Over 9,000 lives would be saved in the US if
all babies were breastfed.
19
 Artificially fed babies get
sicker and are sick more
often
◦ 21:8
 Artificially fed babies are
hospitalized more often
◦ 15:1 in first 4 months
◦ 10:1 for any bacterial
infection

the Children's Hospital, Islamabad, Pakistan.

quantities controlled by the consumers' needs, the
very announcement of their find would send their
shares rocketing to the top of the stock market. The
scientists who developed the product would win
prizes and the wealth and influence of everyone
involved would increase dramatically. Women have
been producing such a miraculous substance,
breastmilk, since the beginning of human
existence..."
-- Gabrielle Palmer, in The Politics of Breastfeeding,
"If a multinational company
developed a product that was a
nutritionally balanced and
delicious food, a wonder drug
that both prevented and treated
disease, cost almost nothing to
produce and could be delivered

One drop contains approximately 13
  • 14. Why is breastfeeding best? One study compared breastfed and artificially fed babies for the first six months and the number of visits to the doctor due to illness (excluding well baby check-ups) – 25% made a visit to the doctor due to illness making between 1 to 5 visits each – 97% made a visit to the doctor making up to 16 visits each.

Photograph obtained from iStock. 17
  • 18.

Photograph obtained from iStock 18
