It’s World Breastfeeding Week. According to Karen Westercamp, the OB Clinical Manager at Pella Regional, statistics show that babies who breastfeed gather better immunities from their mother’s milk, than those that are fed formula. Megan Suhr, a doula who lives in Knoxville, says babies who breastfeed for more than six months, actually have a higher average IQ. Suhr adds that there are also many benefits to the mother, including helping to regulate her system, and blood loss after birth, while helping to lose baby weight.
