Isa ka bang working mom na nahihirapan ipagpatuloy ang breastfeeding matapos bumalik sa trabaho?

Hindi ka nag-iisa! —at mas malalim ang mga rason sa mga hadlang nito.

Alam mo ba ang iyong mga karapatan sa breastfeeding at maternity leave sa trabaho, tulad ng mga ito?

Lactation breaks - Karagdagang 40 minuto ng break mula sa trabaho para mag-express ng breastmilk

Lactation stations - Maayos at pribadong lugar o sa opisina kung saan ligtas na makakapagpasuso o makakapag-express ng gatas ang mga ina

Protection Against Discrimination - pagbabawal sa anumang uri ng diskriminasyon laban sa mga ina na nagpapasuso.

Paid Maternity Leave (RA 11210 – 105-Day Expanded Maternity Leave Law, 2019)

Breastfeeding in Public Spaces (RA 10028)

Basahin ang artikulong ito:

“Maternity protection policies and the enabling environment for breastfeeding in the Philippines: a qualitative study” (https://doi.org/10.1186/s13006-023-00594-w)

Ipinapakita nito ang pagsusuri sa kasalukuyang mga polisiya at ang mga posibleng hadlang sa pagpapatupad nito, sa kabila ng umiiral na mga patakaran.

Suportahan natin ang mga pagsisikap at inisyatiba na gawing breastfeeding-friendly ang mga lugar ng pagtatrabaho.

Alam niyo ba?

Ginugunita natin ang National TB Day tuwing Agosto 19, ang kaarawan ni Pangulong Manuel L. Quezon. Si Pangulong Quezon ay namatay dahil sa tuberculosis noong 1944.

Ngayong Agosto, sinuportahan ng NCP at Philippine Nutri-Foods Corporation ang TB awareness campaign ng TBpeople Philippines sa hanay ng mga empleyado ng merchants ng Ayala Malls sa Solenad, Santa Rosa City at Marquee Mall, Angeles City. Tinalakay ang mga sintomas ng tuberculosis, ang kahalagahan ng pagpapa-tsek ap kung may mga sintomas at pagkumpleto ng gamutan kapag na-diagnose na may TB. Sa isang pag-aaral ng NCP, nakitang 23% ng mga nada-diagnose ng TB ay may moderate to severe na malnutrisyon. https://journals.plos.org/globalpublichealth/article?id=10.1371/journal.pgph.0000011 Mahalagang matukoy ang mga malnourished na pasyenteng may TB at suportahan ang kanilang nutrisyonal na rehabilitasyon bilang bahagi ng komprehensibong health care.

Kung ikaw ay may mga sumusunod na sintomas, kumonsulta sa pinakamalapit na klinika o health center: ubo na tumatagal na 2 linggo o mahigit, sinat o lagnat na pabalik-balik, pagkawala ng gana sa pagkain, pagbawas sa timbang, madaling pagkapagod.

Ang breastfeeding ay kayang-kaya, basta may maayos na suporta!

May magagandang polisiya ang Pilipinas para protektahan, isulong, at suportahan ang breastfeeding, ngunit marami pa ring nanay ang nahaharap sa iba’t ibang hadlang.

Panahon na para ipaglaban ang mas mahigpit na pagpapatupad ng batas at gawing ligtas at magiliw sa breastfeeding — sa ospital, trabaho, bahay, at sa komunidad!

📢 We commemorate World Breastfeeding Week (WBW) from August 1-7, with this year’s theme Invest in Breastfeeding, Invest in the Future.

Ads promoting breast-milk substitutes (BMS) and growing-up milks on TV and social media appear thousands of times across platforms like YouTube, Facebook, Tiktok, and company websites and influence mothers’ recall, as reported in our 2021 study (https://accesstonutrition.org/app/uploads/2021/05/ATNF_Phillipines_Report_FINAL_05.04.21.pdf)

❗ These promotions can mislead parents and weaken confidence in breastfeeding—especially when they come from popular online sources.

Breastfeeding is one of the best investments we can make for a child’s health, development, and the future of our communities. To protect that investment:

✅ National and local government agencies should enforce Executive Order 51, enact policies to protect breastfeeding and prevent commercial influence over infant feeding.

✅ Complementary foods for 6–36 month olds should be marketed responsibly, following WHO guidance.

Let’s protect breastfeeding and invest in a healthier future for all

🍞 Project Spotlight: Nutripan sa Eskwelahan
As part of our commitment to nutrition security, the Nutrition Center of the Philippines pioneered the Nutripan sa Eskwelahan — a school-based bakery project that makes affordable, nutritious bread available right where it’s needed most: in our schools.
🏫 Schools serve not just as learning spaces — but also as community nutrition hubs.
Through Nutripan, students get access to healthy snacks, and communities are empowered with sustainable, local food solutions.
This project is a direct response to this year’s Nutrition Month theme:
“Food at Nutrition Security, Maging Priority! Sapat na Pagkain, Karapatan Natin!”
🌱 Because every child deserves nourishment — and every school can be a partner in securing a nutrition-secure future for all.

The Nutrition Center of the Philippines (NCP) is honored to have participated in the 2025 Asia-Pacific Regional Conference on Early Childhood Care and Development (ECCD) held last July 1–3 in Mandaluyong City.

As a proud member of SUN CSA Philippines, we joined fellow advocates from 32 countries to champion the role of local governance in strengthening ECCD systems—especially for the most vulnerable.

During the conference, we highlighted NCP’s ongoing work in promoting nutrition in the First 1,000 Days (F1KD), a critical window for a child’s growth and development, and our commitment to advancing inclusive, responsive, and community-based nutrition programs.

We’re also proud to stand alongside our fellow SUN CSA members:
🌾 IIRR shared their initiative on healthy food systems in Guinayangan, Quezon.
🎒 Save the Children Philippines presented their current ECCD training and projects.

We continue to push for equitable and holistic early childhood care, because every child deserves a healthy start.
