Breastfeeding is the practice of a woman feeding an infant (or sometimes a toddler or a young child) with milk produced from her mammary glands, usually directly from the nipples. Babies have a sucking instinct allowing them to extract the milk.
While many mothers choose to breastfeed their child, there are some who do not, either for personal or medical reasons. Breast milk has been shown to be very beneficial for a child; however, as with other bodily fluid transfers, some diseases and medicines can be passed from the mother to the infant.
