A member asked:
Is nutrition value of breast feeding more effective than exclusive pumping?how both differs?which is beneficial to baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Natural breast feeding provides a more consistent stimulus toward creation of more milk. The let down reflex increases speed and amount of flow. Longer term success in feeding is documented. The time to prepare and finish feeds is significantly les.
