From decades of hospital / clinical experience with mothers & Babies, I realized that in this generation people are undermining the value of breastfeeding and moving to formula feed as a trend. Many parents are not having the adequate knowledge about breast feeding. However, some of them are aware of the benefits,but unable to execute it in their practical life due to various reasons like,

  • Nipple pain & Cracks
  • Bleeding from nipples
  • Flat/Inverted nipples
  • Breast engorgement
  • Mastitis
  • Low Milk Supply
  • Problems with position & Latching
  • Baby’s Tongue tie
  • Low birth weight babies
  • Preterm Babies
  • Extreme preterm in NICU
  • Lack of supportive members in the nuclear family

These are a few common reasons for unsuccessful breast feeding which can be solved with the guidance of experts. There are many more reasons related to mothers & babies health conditions well. On the contrary, very few mothers really take efforts to establish breastfeeding and they succeed in that. Among them,some mothers may be working and unfortunately discontinue breastfeeding.

What are we Lacking?

  • Awareness
  • Knowledge
  • No support and guidance on right time

Who all are affected? Does it only affect the Mother & Baby?
No..the Family, Society and Country.
Ultimately the future generations can also be affected.
Now is the time to advocate for new generations to start their life with precious liquid ‘Colostrum’(the first milk). And exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months and to further continue breastfeeding for 2 years along with complementary feeds.These are the minimal human rights for all babies.

First Line Lactation Childbirth Support Services is there to support you with evidence based knowledge and practices for a successful motherhood.
