Abstract:
Although the vast majority of pediatricians agree that breastfeeding is the preferred form of infant feeding, a large number of infants are still exclusively formula-fed or rarely breastfed for an extended period of time. This review explores focuses on data that speak to mothers' decisions to initiate and continue breastfeeding. Current research focuses on the immunomodulatory effects of breast milk, especially its protective benefits as relates to infection and allergy. The evidence clearly indicates that pediatricians must continue to play a critical role in the promotion of breastfeeding.
