Breastfed babies thrive.
I am currently breastfeeding my son Caleb who was born Dec.18,1998, and I plan to for as long as he wants. It is such a unique experience. When I was expecting my son I thought I would only nurse him for 6 months, but after the first four months, I knew this relationship would last for some time. Breastmilk is a living substance just like blood, and it contains all that is needed to support and sustain life. Formulas lack the anti-infective properties of human milk and facilitated absorption of fat, minerals and vitamins.
