Everyday milk
Breastfeeding is the ideal food for all infants because it answers their nutritional needs perfectly. Its composition evolves over the course of feeding and adapts to the baby’s evolution. It is thus recommended to breast feed as long as possible.
However, some women are not able or do not want to breastfeed their child at all, or not as long as they wish to, for various reasons: personal choice, health conditions, busy professional life… In these cases, an infant formula may be given to the newborn, according to the health care professionals’ advice.
