Breast milk provides the ideal nutrition for infants. It has a nearly perfect mix of vitamins, protein, and fat – everything your baby needs to grow; and breast milk also contains antibodies that help your baby fight off viruses and bacteria – something that infant formula can't do!! Making the decision to breastfeed is a personal decision. Here at WRMC we want to help you get started on the right track and we are here to help ensure successful breastfeeding. Our nurses have all been educated in assisting with breastfeeding and we also have lactation counselors available to assist you with any complications.
