Babies and Parents

One more reason for you to give your baby the breast: breast milk is good for the baby’s psychological development. There is evidence that children who are breastfeeding for a short time have more behavioral problems.

Breastfeeding lasting less than six months is associated with increased morbidity in children’s mental health, according to a study in Australia.

Breast milk contains fatty acids and bioactive components that benefit baby’s mental development. One of these components, leptin affects the hypothalamus, hippocampus, pituitary and adrenal glands, reducing stress, while the formula has a depressive effect on the baby.

One interesting finding of this research reports said that younger mothers with fewer years of academic preparation, high stress levels, with less income and who smoked during pregnancy are the most frequently breastfed their children less.
