For successful breastfeeding, it is important that you and your baby master the breastfeeding technique as soon as possible. This ensures a good milk supply, allows the baby to suckle as much as he/she needs, prevents painful breastfeeding and nipple damage. Breastfeeding is natural, but it is also a skill that is acquired over time and through practice.

Breastfeeding is a natural way of feeding children, but the process itself is a skill that is learned. For successful breastfeeding, it is important that you and your baby take a comfortable position during a breastfeed, that you feel comfortable and relaxed.

All newborns can be fed breastmilk. The exceptions are very rare congenital metabolic disorders. The message "mother's milk is the best" is brought to the fore in sick newborn and infant nutrition.

From 6th month of life, thriving babies no longer need a night-time meal. Now it's just a habit, which can be all the more difficult to change as the child gets older.

Infant formulas are the only safe choice for children who do not get breastmilk. Using appropriate infant formula is recommended during the first 12 months; you can start giving cow's milk to your child when he/she is one year old.

Thrush or candidiasis is a fungal disease that most often occurs in a child's mouth. It is common in the first year of life and is usually not a reason for concern.

Mastitis is breast inflammation that leads to local tenderness, redness and fever. Milk flow from the affected breast is difficult. Fever, dizziness, malaise and headache may also occur.

A short lingual frenulum is a condition present at birth that reduces tongue mobility. It can make suckling and feeding difficult; later, it can hinder the pronunciation of certain sounds and maintenance of oral hygiene.

It is safest not to consume alcohol at all while breastfeeding. The effect of alcohol on the baby is proportional to the amount drunk by the mother.

Every mother's greatest fear is whether she has enough milk for her child and whether he/she is thriving well. This has turned out to be one of the most common reasons for the (unnecessary) introduction of supplementary feeding, and even complete transition to artificial feeding.
