Breastfeeding gives babies the best possible start in life and lays the foundation for a healthy future.

Breast milk is the ideal first food — safe, clean and rich in antibodies that help protect against illness.

The World Health Organization (who) recommends starting within the first hour of birth and continuing for at least two years.

Breastfeeding offers lifelong benefits, but it’s not always easy.

Support from partners, families, healthcare providers, employers and policymakers is essential to help mothers breastfeed — at home, at work and in public spaces.
