Why Teach Hand Expression?

– instruct mother to hand express directly into the baby’s mouthmouth
• The skin to skin contact of hand expression provides stimulation for milk production and letdown
• Reinforces to mother that every drop is valuable.

Breastfeeding levels the playing field
Breastfeeding is a natural "safety net" against the worst effects of poverty ...it is almost as if breastfeeding takes the infant out of poverty for those first few months in order to give the child a fairer start in life and compensate for the
injustice of the world into which it was borninjustice of the world into which it was born.
