| | Breastfeeding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Breastfeeding releases hormones that have been found to relax the mother and cause her to experience nurturing feelings toward her infant. | | | A HIV-positive mother breastfeeding an infant can, in some countries, be investigated for child abuse – a 1998 case in the U.S. resulted in the HIV-positive mother being reported to social services for her continued breastfeeding and non-treatment of the child for HIV [6]. | | | Breastfeeding mothers who smoke are counselled not to do so during or immediately before feeding their child. |

| | Feeding Your Newborn |
| | Breastfeeding meets a variety of emotional needs for both moms and babies — the skin-to-skin contact can enhance the emotional connection, and providing complete nourishment can help a new mother feel confident in her ability to care for her newborn. | | | Deciding to breastfeed or bottle-feed a baby is usually based on the mother's comfort level with breastfeeding as well as her lifestyle, but breastfeeding may not be recommended for some mothers and babies. | | | During this visit, the baby will be weighed and examined, and the mother's breastfeeding technique can be evaluated. |
