Colostrum

Within minutes after your baby is born, breastfeeding can begin. The mother’s yellowish first milk, called colostrum, is especially rich in substances that promote immunity system maturation versus disease and contains everything your baby needs to transition to life outside your body.

Colostrum is produced from the first to the fifth day & has many benefits for your newborn:

Helps your baby's immune system maturation

Creates a tough coating on your baby’s stomach to keep germs from causing illness

Acts as a laxative to help you baby pass meconium (baby's first stool)

Helps prevent jaundice and gets rid of harmful waste products

Gives your baby’s body right blend of nutrients in the right form to grow

Contains high levels of protein, fat and vitamins for complete nutrition

Complete nutrition that your baby’s stomach can easily digest
