Breastfeeding Quote of the Day: Nutrition from Breast Milk

The Pregnancy Journal: A Day-to-Day Guide to a Healthy and Happy Pregnancy is the journal I have used to document each of my three pregnancies. I love the daily bits of information it shares and how easy it is to write short journal entries as my pregnancy progresses. Many of the daily tips pertain to breastfeeding. Here is one fun fact:

The calcium-to-phosphorus ratio of breast milk is ideal for moving calcium into the baby’s skeleton and promoting growth. In addition, breast milk is low in sodium, and iron and zinc from breast milk is absorbed better than from cow’s milk.

- by A. Christine Harris, Ph.D., The Pregnancy Journal: A Day-to-Day Guide to a Healthy and Happy Pregnancy, p. 134.
