| Popis: | The World Health Organisation1 recommends exclusive breast/chestfeeding for the first six months of life, continued alongside complementary foods for up to two years and beyond. While most have the capacity to produce enough milk to exclusively breast/chestfeed an infant, a small percentage are unable to make all the milk that their babies need due to having Insufficient Glandular Tissue (IGT), also known as mammary hypoplasia or tuberous breasts. |
