Popis: |
Exclusive breastfeeding means that the infant receives only breast milk (from his or her mother or a wet nurse or expressed breast milk) and no other liquids or complementary foods with the exception of undiluted drops or syrups consisting of vitamin and mineral supplements or medicines. During this period water is not permitted. The resolution (WHA 54.2) urges Member States to support exclusive breastfeeding for first six months as a global public health recommendation and to provide safe and appropriate complementary foods, with continued breastfeeding for up to two years or beyond. Breastfeeding Promotion Network of India (BPNI) has issued guidelines for breastfeeding and complementary feeding. |
