Colostrum contains antibodies, which can increase the resistance of the baby, especially to the diseases of the respiratory tract and digestive tract, such as enterovirus. In addition, the baby who drinks breast milk are less likely to have allergies.

How to promote breast milk secretion

- Increase the frequency of baby sucking (leading to more milk) or frequent pumping.
Principles of breastfeeding
- Feed as early as possible after childbirth to stimulate milk secretion.
- In general, the more babies suck and the more milk they secrete, so don't limit their sucking time. Feed them whenever they get hungry.
