This is because there are no suitable spaces at most workplaces for new mothers to express or breastfeed their children during working hours, and they become discouraged to continue breastfeeding because they spend most of the day at work without their babies.

Breastmilk is one of the best ways that a mother can give her baby all the necessary nutrients in the proper proportions which keeps the baby healthy and protects against diseases.

Every mother who chooses to exclusively breastfeed her baby in the first six months is doing the best she can to help her baby grow and stay healthy.
