Breast milk is a miracle food that can meet all the nutritional needs of the baby during the first 6 months, is sterile and also plays a major role in the development and structuring of the baby's immune system. The content of breast milk varies from month to month, in line with the changing needs of the baby as it develops. The composition of the milk of a mother whose baby has just been born is different from the milk of a mother whose baby is 7 months old. And even the content of the milk (foremilk) at the beginning of breastfeeding and the milk secreted towards the end of breastfeeding (hindmilk) are different. The fat content of the hind milk is higher and the lactose content is lower, ensuring satiety in the baby. While breast milk is so important, mothers should pay extreme attention to their nutrition in order to give their babies sufficient milk with quality content.
