Choosing how to feed your baby is an important decision that has lifelong effects for you and your baby. What you have seen and learned about infant feeding from your family, friends and teachers is likely to influence your attitude and perceptions. Whether you definitely plan to breastfeed or you are still uncertain, the research is pretty clear.
