AtlantiCare - Benefits of Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding provides more than good nutrition to your baby — breastfeeding also allows you to create a loving bond with your new son or daughter. AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center promotes the practice of breastfeeding to all maternity patients. During your hospital stay, you will have the opportunity to meet with an AtlantiCare certified lactation consultant to learn all you need to know to breastfeed your baby.
