Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding is recommended worldwide as the first choice for mother and child. There are courses you can take during pregnancy to prepare for breastfeeding. You can also consult a lactation expert. After the delivery, you can contact your maternity nurse or the child health clinic if you have any questions about breastfeeding.
The pharmacist can advise you about medicines and breastfeeding. For more information about breastfeeding, please visit www.borstvoeding.nl or ask us your question. If breastfeeding is impossible, formula is a good alternative.
In The Hague, a number of lactation consultants are available to provide breastfeeding courses, advice and support for breastfeeding. It is easy to find them via the internet.
