Research Notes on Breast Milk


Breast milk is the milk a mother provides for her baby. Breast milk contains proteins, fats, vitamins, and carbohydrates. It provides all the nutrition your baby needs. If your baby has trouble taking milk from the breast, you can use a pump to extract the milk, and then bottle feed. Lactation consultants will offer support and help you learn how to breastfeed your baby. Breast milk can be gotten though a milk bank by prescription, if you are unable to breastfeed.1

Fast Facts:

  • The more you breastfeed the more milk your body will produce.2
  • Your body will make the right kind of milk needed for your baby.2
  • Breast milk can be frozen in a deep freezer for 6-12 months for later use.3
