While trying to decide whether to bottle feed or breastfeed her newborn infant, a new mother questions the lactation specialist
gavmur [86]

Answer:

Breast feeding gives the baby immunity against diseases caused by bacteria.

Explanation:

Apart from nourishing the infant, breast milk protects the baby. Immunoglobulin in breast milk helps to boost a baby's immune system.

In the case of an infection or illness, a breastfed baby is likely to recover faster because the mother’s body will produce specific antibodies that will fight against the infection the baby picked has.

Breastfed babies are less likely to suffer from diarrhea, cold, thrush, gastroenteritis and ear and chest infections.
