Infants are particularly vulnerable to vitamin B12 deficiency because of their rapid growth, and exclusively breastfed infants of deficient mothers will show signs before any maternal symptoms are apparent.
The author of this paper used data from the USA Infant Feeding Practices Study II to investigate the associations between infant feeding, asthma, and respiratory allergies.
Many factors contribute to the development of obesity and studies have differed on whether they find infant feeding has a significant effect.
The Australian Breastfeeding Association (ABA) runs the National Breastfeeding Helpline 1800 mum 2 mum (1800 686 268). The Breastfeeding Helpline is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
It is staffed by trained, volunteer counsellors who answer calls on a roster system in their own homes.
LiveChat is a mum 2 mum support service on the ABA website www.breastfeeding.asn.au.
Trained volunteers assist mothers and their families with breastfeeding information and are there to support mothers on their breastfeeding journey.
LiveChat is accessible via mobile phones, tablets, laptops and computers.
