Question
Is breast milk better than formula for newborns? The baby just born doesn’t know what’s going on, and there are always red spots on their body, and they keep spitting up.
Answer
Absolutely, breast milk is better, especially for the first feeding. Because from breast milk, the baby can obtain some antibodies to enhance their own immunity. This is something that no matter how high-quality the formula is, it cannot achieve. So if possible, it’s still best to choose breastfeeding. If the baby is troubled by neonatal diseases, therefore, the mother must take the child to see a doctor immediately for treatment and avoid blindly using small advertisements for medicine. They need to use medication reasonably. For parents, it’s important to give the child enough care and attention, and to do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for their illness.
