Growing in God's love SEC Curriculum; HV Lesson 13 Introduction to Breastfeeding Part 2
| Category | Physical Development |
Breastfeeding is a beautiful way a mother shares God’s love with her child, nurturing them with both physical nourishment and emotional connection. It reflects the care, provision, and intimacy that God designed for the mother-child bond. In this lesson, we will explore the importance of colostrum, often called "liquid gold," which is the first milk a mother produces. Colostrum is packed with essential nutrients and antibodies that help protect a newborn’s fragile immune system. We will also discuss why breastfeeding immediately after birth is critical, as it helps establish a strong breastfeeding routine, provides essential nutrients, and promotes bonding between mother and baby. By understanding these aspects, mothers can see breastfeeding not only as a practical act but as a spiritual and loving gift to their child.
