Special care should also be taken for the nutrition of the mother. There are many old and wrong concepts and beliefs about breastfeeding in our country, about which Dr. Noopur Sud explained in detail that the mother's first milk is called 'colostrum'; is like a nectar. It is full of vitamins and antibodies, which increase the immunity of children. For six months, the baby gets enough water from the mother's milk.

Working mothers can store their milk in the refrigerator at a suitable temperature, which can be fed from any bowl when the baby is hungry.
