Pittsburgh Birth Nerd

Research suggests that breastfeeding lowers your baby's risk of certain infections and diseases, including: ear infections, asthma, lower respiratory infections, diarrhea and vomiting, childhood obesity, eczema, type 2 diabetes, childhood leukemia, or Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Breastfed babies may also be sick less often, which may keep your health costs low.

For moms, breastfeeding can help you recover more quickly from childbirth. It can also reduce your risk for high blood pressure, certain breast and ovarian cancer and type 2 diabetes. Breastfeeding may also help you lose weight after childbirth.
