Parents-to-be, check out these breastfeeding facts from WIC!
💛 Feeding your baby as soon as you can after giving birth, ideally within the first hour, signals your body to start making milk!
🤱🏻 Feed your baby 8-12 times in the 24 hours after giving birth. Frequency—not quantity—is key to building your milk supply.
🤱🏽 Your first milk, colostrum, is so nutrient-rich, your baby doesn't need much—about a teaspoon per feeding is normal and enough!
🤱🏼 Placing a warm compress on your breasts before feeding can help with milk release.
👨‍🍼 Every baby and every parent are different, so don’t worry if your breastfeeding routine differs from others!

WIC is here for you on your breastfeeding journey 💗 Community Action of Skagit County WIC serves Mount Vernon, Anacortes & Oak Harbor families. Call 360-416-7595. Military families call WIC NASWI 360-679-8049.
