@drlouisa: This is World Breastfeeding Week, and we’re taking the opportunity to learn more about breastfeeding—its incredible benefits, why it matters, and how mothers can overcome some of the common challenges along the journey. In this excerpt, Dr. Josephine Mensa Onumah highlights something we don’t talk about enough: breastfeeding is not only one of the best gifts you can give your baby, it’s also one of the most economical ways to nourish and protect your child. Breast milk provides complete nutrition, strengthens a baby’s immune system, and supports healthy growth and development—all while saving families the cost of formula and feeding supplies. Join us this week as we share practical conversations to empower mothers, support families, and celebrate breastfeeding. Have you watched the full episode yet?
