I hope all Baby Friendly hospitals pave the way for other non-Baby Friendly hospitals to give colostrum to NICU babies and do immediate skin-to-skin after birth and in the OR!

I am glad I took this class because it provides more information pertaining to colostrum benefits and skin to skin contact, I love how breastmilk was broken down into different data tables of the benefits included in breastmilk. Since I have always thought that the initiative of skin to skin is a vastly important factor when it comes to the initiative of breastfeeding and connection with mom; and baby as a whole even after delivering as we know that breastfeeding not only helps mom heal faster but nourishes the baby with love care and food from one source which is their mother.
