This provides them the essential antibodies that help protect them from infections early in life especially gastrointestinal tract infections like diarrhoea which is one of the major killers of children under five. Above all, breastfeeding strengthens the bond between mothers and children (it's no rocket science) and saves parents the high cost of buying milk formulas (NAND milks) every 3days when used appropriately which makes it both eco- friendly and cost-effective. **TO THE MOTHERS, breastfeeding also helps in lowering the risk of breast and ovarian cancers and supports your quick recovery after delivery.** ### KEY POINTS IN BREASTFEEDING Exclusive Breastfeeding is recommended for the first 6 months of life and continued breastfeeding alongside other complementary foods until atleast two years of age ### EXCLUSIVE BREASTFEEDING FALLACY:  [Source](https://pixabay.com/vectors/breast-feeding-maternity-mother-1831508/) Breastfeeding may support better cognitive or brain function but it doesn't guarantee intelligence. ### AS THE HUSBAND: Your support is essential! Always encourage your wife throughout this phase. To Our Young Mothers ( Gen-Z Generation) The greatest setbacks is always the aesthetic outcome of breastfeeding as most of them fear it will flatten their breasts, but, Iet me leave you with this food for thought; "Would you rather prevent your child from preventable illnesses or risk sleepless nights in the hospital battling diarrhoea and other health complications?" ### Take-home Message Breastfeeding should not be optional! Breastfeeding is not just a lifestyle choice Breastfeeding is a health necessity.

Our curators regularly scour the whole of Neoxian to find the best and sometimes most undervalued work to send into planetary orbit with our humungous weighted curation trail. If you observe our tribe we have one of the best trending pages and that is because our administration team weight the trail down with their HUGE votes. **These are our picks:** **Please note: We only support original content here**.We will exact vengeance with extreme prejudice on plagiarists and spammers. So we want to see you unleash that creativity of yours. When you create you get better at what you do. When you plagiarise it is a wasted effort, and we don't like wastefulness or laziness here. **We also take our tags seriously**. So please try and use the relevant tags as we will only vote on those with them. We won't be voting a picture of your cat with SPT for example. SPT is for Splinterlands.
