Breast milk is the perfect food for me.
Help my mom eat healthy. Everything my mom eats goes to me.
I know when I’m full. Please pay attention to my hunger and fullness cues.
When I am younger, I need to eat frequently. As I grow, I will feed less.
There are many benefits for me, my mom, and my family.
