Breastfeeding and the early bond between mother and infant are shaped by biology, care and experience. In this special, we bring together stories exploring the many dimensions of breastfeeding, from the benefits of human milk and breastfeeding beyond the first year to milk donation, early mother–infant contact and the often-overlooked experiences that can follow pregnancy loss.
Together, these stories offer a broader look at breastfeeding and early bonding, highlighting both the science behind them and the diverse experiences of mothers and infants.
