Breastfeeding and human milk are the normative standards for infant feeding and nutrition for the first six months of life according to the Canadian Paediatric Society and the American Academy of Pediatrics.[1][2] Human milk should be the sole source of nutrition for the first six months, however the Canadian Paediatric Society (2013) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (2022) recommended supplementation with Vitamin D.[1] [2] Complementary foods are introduced at about six months of age, but breastfeeding should continue.[1][2]
Contents
Benefits of breastfeeding
The Canadian Paediatric Society reported that breastfeeding is associated with "improved cognitive development."[1]
The American Academy of Pediatrics reported that, as compared with formula feeding, breastfeeding reduces sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), infant and neonatal mortality, lower respiratory tract infection, severe or persistent diarrhea, otitis media, asthma, eczema, Crohn's disease, colitis, childhood and adult obesity, diabetes, and leukemia.[2]
Contraindications to breastfeeding
There are certain conditions that contraindicate breastfeeding. The American Academy of Pediatrics provides a discussion of contraindications.[2]
Circumcision impairs commencement of breastfeeding
Neonatal circumcision is a medically unnecessary, non-therapeutic, intensely painful surgery that is carried out just the time when breastfeeding is being commenced. Circumcision causes extreme pain, trauma, and shock, and disturbs feeding behavior.[3] The infant boy is left in a debilitated state in which he is unable to initiate breastfeeding,[4][5] which frequently results in the introduction of formula feeding to the detriment of a boy's health.[6]
