....mantra, breast is best, fed to us by the professional for years. And now new research suggests the mother’s milk makes infants healthier, happier and brainier.
Your baby seems to have a 7 point increase in IQ if you breast feed him or her, but only fits for a particular gene 1, the gene of cleverness. Now 90 percent of babies do have this gene, so generally speaking, breast feeding a baby will make a difference to your baby’s intelligence. That’s what the research is saying.
The findings are bound to put extra pressure on mothers who don’t breast feed but come as no surprise to those who do.
I fed my first child till he was 16 months. I breast fed him. And I’m still breast feeding, Issac is here, now and I think the benefits are enormous. I’m a nurse myself so I know a lot of the health benefits in breast feeding.
Well I breast fed my son for five days, and just it didn’t suit me and he's bottle fed from then on. And he’s fine. He’s quite on the ball. He’s quite bright. He’s forward. So I don’t know really about the research. I think it’s a very individual choice.
In the UK, around 1/5 of women prefer to bottle feed, and 1/3 of those who start to breast feed have given up within 6 months. Infant formula is a big business. The manufacturers say they are keen to take all new research on board.
Certain fatty acids build up in the brain in the first few months. They are present in human but not cow’s milk. But because scientists now think they're so important for brain development, they’ve recently been added to some infant formulas as well.
Britain has one of the lowest rates of beastfeeding in Europe. Campaigners hope that science plus support will persuade mothers that breast fed babies are brighter babies.
