      Breastfeeding should not be a "choice" unless a mother cant breastfeed due to some medical conditions. All these wrong influences about breast milk and artifical milk being the same on new mothers is detrimental to both the child's and mother's health. Breastfeeding and artifical feeding can never be same.
      Breastfeeding has advantages both to the mother and child.
      Advantages of Breastfeeding for child:
      Is is the exact food with prescise nutritional values, clean, hygienic, at correct temperature needed for the baby for few months.
      Contains antimicrobial factors that protects the baby from infections and biulds the immunity.
      It promotes bonding between child and the mother.
      Special fattyacid in the breast milk leads to increased IQ level of the child.
      Prevention of neonatal hypocalcaemia and hypomagnesemia.
      Advantages of breastfeeding For mother:
      It promotes bonding between the mother and child.
      Helps in involution of uterus.
      Lowers risk of postpartum haemorrhage and anemia.
      Protects mother from overian and breast cancer and osteoporosis.
      Boosts mothers immunity.
      Acts as natural contraception.

      Same here. This video is a life saver to moms like me who suffer from depression for not being able to breastfeed enough.. I'm trying my best to switch to exclusive breastfeeding but my breast milk seems a little less for my baby so i end up topping up with formula all the time. I feel so guilty and ashamed of myself for doing it. This video actually gave me a little peace of mind. It is good to know that formula is not harming my baby.

    Thanks for the video. My baby boy who is 3 months now is formula fed. I was so depressed and produced very little milk even after taking medicine and following proper diet. Also there was a problem of latching due to flat nipples. Paediatrician told that the baby is growing well. So I thank God and I am still trying to pump few ml everyday hoping some day I can feed him breast milk.

    Thank you for the video, I really appreciate it as I don't know anyone who formula feeds nowadays. My own mom formula fed me and my husband's mom formula fed him. I feel like this is what I want to do, especially since I don't really have breasts. Just feels more practical for me. Wish me people would talk about this.

    Don't obsess! Formula can be great. Benefits : more sleep for mom, baby's tummy stays fuller for longer so that can mean more sleep for mom, well-growing baby, less stress over breastfeeding , don't have to supplement with vitamin D. More convenient . No painful nipples . Allows you to combo-feed .

      I had a complicated pregnancy and produced very little milk and also baby was not latching due to flat nipples. After trying, taking medicine and proper diet also I am unable to produce milk even after pumping. Yeah it is very depressing from the beginning but I’m praying and also thankful to God that my baby is growing well even if he is formula fed.

      Yes it is but not everyone has access to it.. i tried everything possible to exclusively breastfeed my baby but still am topping up with formula.. and i can't find any breast milk donor around my area.. donating breast milk is still a taboo or atleast uncommon in many parts of the world which is sad
